If the apple also represents big tech companies, the way that it's bleeding could show how its workers are exploited for profit.

Also, apple as a biblical symbol (lots of mentions of religion throughout the comic). The bleeding apple as a representation of her not believing in God (reference to Santa comment?)]]> 2022-03-09 23:32:17 UTC https://padlet.com/menadolinh/ire5oihovfnarwg9/wish/2087068983 menadolinh https://padlet.com/menadolinh/ire5oihovfnarwg9/wish/2087069537 Not clear passage of time except for small visual hints


Slow build up from level 1 to level 35 (over course of multiple pages/panels) and then in the next moment quickly back to one.

Time is cyclical as well. Emphasizing having to start all over again.

Evokes feeling of purgatory and limbo (thinking of biblical metaphors). Trapped in liminal period.

- calmly sipping tea whilst warrior is on the ground after being stabbed- Grandfather in an immense position of power, treats warriors like chess pieces, amongst Cold War setting can symbolize how American troops are exploited by the military industrial complex
- OMG there's a literal baby
- interesting how changes to pink/blue at humans encased in tubes scene
- Grandfather talking in plain English, while Cardinal speaks in some medieval, alien hybrid language yet communication is still clear- Grandfather's power transcends time??
- Cardinal's panels are so small, while GF's is so large- power dynamic
- people in tubes look very caught off guard
- perhaps significance of Apple- people's information and identities being harvested for energy/capital? amount of people captured may speak to the overwhelming scope of technology impinging on our every day lives— lack of agency and dehumanization, giving off warehouse vibes]]> 2022-03-09 23:40:41 UTC https://padlet.com/menadolinh/ire5oihovfnarwg9/wish/2087076956
