Notes from class The Authority

Lit of Comics The Authority analysis:

  1. The most prominent symbol in the story that I received was the idea of making a better choice than the opponent. Each side believes that they're right in their own ways of bettering the world and they want to show that side to the others because they believe it will enhance their future, so they fight to the bitter end to make that happen. This idea of evolution relates to how almost everyone feels about the world, which is finding some way to make things different. 
  2. The connections that I made in the story were connections to the real world versus the world in The Authority. There is always someone in the real world who is considered to have more political power. People tend to handle politics in a way of them being right and the opponent being wrong. This seems to be a significant thing in the whole work, somebody has to be the wrong one. Another thing that seemed to be a connection to this story was the idea of death, and the idea of apocalypse in 1999. This was around the time of a strange Y2K scare, and the sort of apocalyptic feel could reflect that as well. 
  3. I would add more scene changes and transitions to the story to make it a more animated piece. I would also choose certain parts of the script to be edited to be less forward in order to show that the action could speak much louder than words.
