Gawain Project: Brothers & Sisters, p. 173

[sigune]

I'm late! So, no babbling and new page. Which is not terribly exciting, but some stuff needs to be said.

Hm. I was going to insert a 'silent, angrily staring Arthur' in the middle, then decided against it in order to move the dialogue on a bit, but I think I made a mistake. His language question does perhaps come too quickly...

***

Arthur has pulled the sword from the stone. Having, in one swoop, freed several British slaves as well as the Irish warrior Morholt, Arthur and his men now try to make it home before they get caught by a Saxon patrol. But they haven't got far when they run into King Pellinore of the Jutes, who challenges Arthur to a fight, gives him a good beating, and then wants to be friends. Yep.




Concrit is still and always welcome :).

New page next Sunday!

Oh dear, the slaves will cause problems!

It is a great strip, I love seeing those two head to head. But I think you are right - a picture between 2 and 3 would have helped. The 3th picture looks more like an intimate moment between friends, like Arthur is whispering something, only for Pellinore to hear - but I suppose it is meant as a threatening posture, an accusing question.

I love Pellinores attitude in the last picture, like he is saying: "Get real, young man, you KNOW this". Is he calling Arthur's bluff - I suppose Arthur's side has slaves, too?
