Did I ever read comics as a kid?
I definitely have never read a comic in my life. I was much more into Barbies and Disney princesses to read comics about superheroes. To continue with that, I chose this comic strip. I'm not sure if its technically a comic strip, but I really liked it.
Are the images more realistic or more iconic? What effect does that give them?
The images are very iconic. Most Americans can identify the Disney princesses on sight. It makes this comic strip easily recognizable.
What kind of transitions are used?
The author uses the dates on the princesses to create chronological order and shift you from one time period to the next.
How do the words and images work together?
They work together to create the entire message. Without the words, it would just be a picture of the Disney princesses but with the words, it gets a message across. It conveys the message that the Disney princesses actually teach young girls bad concepts like being pretty is the only thing worth having. The message is relayed well because the text offers some valid arguements.
