Narrative ellipsis between pages 5 -6 (Patreon)
Content
For the last page I've used a popular comic resource:
Instead of showing action-reaction I just show the reaction, for giving the comic more dynamism and impact.
So, when the bunny grabs Bastian's ass, instead of showing how Bastian grabs the rabbit and throws him against the urinal, I just showed the reaction, I just showed how the rabbit is pushed against the urinal.
However, the panels sequence is understandable.
Making the panels that way have two advantages:
The action is faster AND I control the amount of violence that I'm showing in the comic.
I mean, I know how much people want to see several pages with the rabbit being punished, however this comic is not about violence, (Bastian don't want to hit the rabbit at the first instance but he's forced by the situation). So I don't need to show the scene when Bastian becomes violent.
So How do you feel about the last page? Do you think I should have include the whole scene with no 'narrative ellipsis' showing how Bastian throws the rabbit against the urinal?
Are you satisfied about how the rabbit ends?
Please comment, this comic is for all of you so, I'll follow your advices.
