Graphic MSND
I think to understand Gauman's interpretation of MSND one would have to have read the play first. There's a lot going on in the graphic version...the play itself is being put on for an audience of fantasy creatures. I don't think the graphic interpretation is distracting. I think it enhances the play. It adds new elements to it. I like how they show it would have been performed back in the day of Shakespeare and the sets on the sides of wagons. The panels show the fantasy world coming into Shakespeare's reality is interesting. I also like all the fantasy creatures that are watching the play. They're interesting and not as beautiful as one thinks of the fairy world. I usually think of tiny, thin, pretty females with wings.
