in the first chapter i found his depiction of his childhood grim and depressing. the dark content is only amplified by the thick, dark, and jagged style of artwork. something about that style was really off-putting to me. too harsh i guess, but it gets the point across.
i started to like it better in the second chapter when his lines got softer and more open to show change and budding romance.
the story seems to move very fast considering he's a child in one chapter and a teen in the next.
team 2 topic C:
he seems to really utilize line thickness with a preference for the dark thick side. in chapter one we see a lot of dark shaded areas. i took notice on pages like 46 with darkness and jagged lines to show a creepy feel. a definate use of positive/negative space in the one larger panel on the page.
on the next page over i noticed him using abnormally thick lines to show an almost aura around his mother. maybe to seperate her from everything else.
