While The Arrival, and Lando's comic had a pretty clear narrative of what was going on. Max Ernst's a Week of Kindess was more abstract. When going around the classroom everybody had a totally different interpretation of the events going on. When trying to interpret the images, it felt like a Roschach test. I'm very certain we learned a lot about each other that day.
To contrast these previous stories we looked at Archie. In class this was the first time I ever read an Archie comic. When reading it I felt this sense of nostalgia of when I was eight. I remember for the longest time I had this idea of what it would be like to be a teenager. Archie felt pretty spot on besides having two lady love interests to what I thought being a teenager was all about. Archie created this clean fun idea of how teenagers in our society should behave. Personally I think the sex, drugs, and rock and roll teenage stereotype is much more exciting to read about now.
