Most may claim that it is an inevitable step: a key to unlock doors and pathways, which would eventually lead one to a promising future. Others may perhaps refer it as a…
While glancing at comic book covers and inside the comic, it can give one a lot of insight as to what the comic book is about and the authors and or publishing companies’ values.

The strips themselves talk about the adventures of a woman named Ella. Beneath that, every little detail on the strips, from the cartooning of the characters, framing choices, to the way the page itself is set up all plays a role in visually delivering the story. Framing choice is how the artist…

The details and descriptions instilled in comics that I am going to talk to you about, do not do justice to what fantastic things you can find in a comic. It could take days, maybe years, maybe even five minutes; but, I am going to boil mine down to three topics in three different graphic novels. Think you can keep up with that? I think you can keep up with that. The three literary terms I am going to discuss upon are: The idea of framing when it comes to graphic novels, how coloring makes a…

This cartoon by Cathy Wilcox was published in the Sydney Morning Herald on 1st October 2014. I will begin by talking about the context of the cartoon, then move on to the two main satirical techniques used, and I will conclude by evaluating the effectiveness of the cartoon.

entertain discerning gentlemen enter the profession after they are out of their 20s. Most often, their motivation stems from feeling the most confident they ever have, and them looking into escorting to express themselves in new, inspired ways. Vegas strip clubs are teeming with 20-something dancers, but men who have a longing for a woman of a certain age are always best served by arranging a private show from a mature or MILF Vegas escort.

With the establishment of the legendary ‘Don the Beachcomber’ in Hollywood, L.A in the early part of the last century, Polynesian themes arrived in style.
