Carol's Action Packed Comics

The way that Carol uses action in her comics really helps emphasize movement and excitement. For instance, when she illustrates George Clooney coming up to her door with a bag of fast food and she says NO. Instead of just drawing herself closing the door she instead exaggerated all the movements and used the word "SLAM" across the frame in order to show the energy. Additionally, I find that the way she draws varies slightly depending on whether or not the box wil have action. Again, if we go back to the strip that shows Carol slamming the door, the lines an the door and the shape of the arm is very curved and distorted in comparison the the rest of the strip. This helps bring energy to the strip.
