Abstract
Another experimental comic! My old art history professors would love this.
And believe it or not, but there is an actual plot in the abstract comic (even if it is rather slight). Can anyone guess what it is?

Squiggles and Lines, two bordering nations. Overpopulation in the nation of Squiggles prompts their government to invade the whitespace-rich country of the Lines. Squiggles and Lines clash in epic battle, tearing their idyllic countrysides apart in fierce war. Innocent shapes watch in horror as the war arrives at their doorstep, leaving nothing but raw colours mixing together into that icky brown that always happens when you get too many of them together. The war rages on, until it climaxes when the Lines drop the bomb, incinerating much of the Squiggle forces. Years later, reformed squiggles-turned-circles live alongside the lines in uneasy peace, the younger dot generation only learning about the war from history books…
Or, yknow, I could have just gone with “Squiggles vs. Lines”, but I felt like embellishing it a little! 😛
I love this answer. It’s what I had in mind when I drew it, but somehow more elegant than I would have said it!
Wow. I was going to say something about Pick-Up-Sticks and some sort of force of nature, but that just sounds boring now compared to Kree’s take on things. 🙂
freedom/chaos/dissorder/the people in the first panel, then order/the government/the world in the second panel. dissoder tries to enter orders turf in the third panel. order quickly tries to snuf out dissorder. the clash and battle. finally spirialing down and erupting. ending with order on top, with a small hint of chaos in it to balance it out.
I love all the thoughts and creativity you guys are putting into your explanations! These are aresome!!
I like it! I actually was thinking a long the same lines as Kree but Kree said it much more eloquently than I could have…
