Analyse af Emily Carrolls 'His Face All Red'

This horror comic tells the story of a man who murders his brother, but yet his brother inexplicably reappears days later. It focuses on psychological horror and effectively uses suspense to push the mystery forward. Both mediums used are outstanding, crafted very carefully to suit the precise narrative that Carroll wants. This comic is an example of one that uses both text and image to seamlessly combine the two elements into one single artwork.

The image on the right demonstrates how Carroll uses images in different ways to convey the story. Adding a small number of repeated panels to change the color does not seem to have a huge impact. However, it sets the mood and even tells readers what has happened within the comic even without depicting any characters or movement. The comic uses this technique to tell of the killing of the beast and the murder of the brother (2. page).
