Analysis & Annotation of Graphic Novel Extract
The rain slashed the city streets with relentless fury, turning the neon signs into blurred, flickering specters. Amidst the downpour, a lone figure hurried beneath a tattered umbrella, shadows dancing on the wet pavement. The panel shows a close-up of her eyes, reflecting the flashing lights and a distant thunderclap. Her face is tense, revealing a mixture of determination and despair. As she reaches the corner, the text box reads, 'Tonight, everything changes.' The background shifts to a dark alley, where graffiti-covered walls loom high, hinting at secrets buried beneath the city’s veneer. Below, a smaller panel depicts her slipping a mysterious envelope into the pocket of her coat, her expression unreadable. The storm intensifies, clouds roiling with menace, matching her internal turmoil. The final panel shows her silhouette against the pouring rain, with the city skyline in the distance, lights piercing the darkness, as she prepares to face whatever awaits.
