Promethea: Temporal Analysis (example 6)

Promethea Annotation #6: When New York is Normal...














Issue 4, pgs. 17-19

Before delving into the complex issues of time and space associated with the Immateria, it is useful to establish a baseline against which these excerpts can be judged. While the characters are in New York, the frames of the panels are made of clean lines and forms. Often, they are typical rectangles; sometimes the frame shape is more creative, though no less cleanly executed (see above, pgs. 17-19). In the Immateria, however, frames are always formed of unsteady, wavy lines, rough edges, or highly decorative lines.
