"Falling Sky" I have a really cool interaction o=between the audience, something I have never seen. However, I felt that some of the moving through the frame should have some reasons in the shot, not just to do it. The style is interesting, having it feel like drawing, that is unfinished. But I felt that the comic artist should push the lighting, through certain areas. I don't feel that much for the characters, besides the dialog that is said and conveyed. It's not my favorite, but I like the artist trying a new way to read comics.

The humor of the "hippy world" through "Freak Brothers", while following a group of druggies in the world, we get a look into what the time period thought about them. Which I technically don agree with the statement, it is funny to read. They exaggerate some of the stories to a point of ridiculousness. To the point of showing fear towards government and cops, and how absurd both sides views.  This comic kinda reminds me of the simpsons, making fun of America, but not getting mad at the idea. I feel like sometimes I put myself into these character shoes, due to relating to them in some ways, and laughing at myself. The style of characters is interesting because the worldview of hippies are a little different than what they were then. For example when I think of hippies, its long hair, headband, peace symbols, and vibrant clothes. While these are conveyed completely different than what I thought of as hippies.  One issue they did bring up that was humorous...

I have read a couple of different Batman comics, but I found it really fascinating looking at the development of the comics from a very simple design, with not much development in the panels. Also trying to break the panels and not keep it into the squares. Also, the subject matter is influenced by the time period. I found it interesting that you can see the style clean up in line work and colors. That the artist got better at understanding the effectiveness in color and as well as placement in quotes. From 1 to 700 issue fo batman I find crazy the amount of batmans and stories there are. Also, the development of the character has changed so much. From his origins and how he became batman was something, I found interesting. Instead of having him become a person trained by the league of shadows, but having him just become super intelligent and a person who works out a lot. I am curious on what batman will become in 20 years or so, with such changes to him.

The contemporary literature really dives into some hard topics of suicide, depression, and other morbid topics. I feel like these comics were meant for the ages between 30 and maybe 20. They probably were popular due to the rise of comics in the 50s, as young kids would read charlie brown. Now since they are adults it is hard to relate more to the child comics and gags. Also, I wonder if these comics get more real due to the time period. People want deeper stories and more realistic situations. However, most of these comics over exaggerate the situation to create a more interesting. Sometimes it's strangely humorous. I find some of these interesting and others to get kind of boring due to the same perspective in the pieces.
