The usage of stick figures is an ironic device, using childish ink strokes as a contrast to the esoteric plot. It's intricate and thought-provoking, and because it's different from the status quo created by the media people will love it. However, the art is still stylish and sophisticated. The monochromatic design unconsciously pulls the reader into the darkness of the story, similar to the effects of an old film noir movie. The overall style is that of postmodernism.
The writing is cosmopolitan and draws from many foreign sources that have way too many syllabes to list here. For example, "Jyqqykkhxz" is a neology based on Arabian dialects. To grab the reader's interest, I have started the comic in the middle of action, engrossing the reader in curious questions, piquing their desire to continue. This is a totally new idea and nobody's ever done it before. The actions of the main character, Lizzie (renamed Lyzzy), help sculpt her complex, labyrinthine personality, even only a couple panels into the story. There is also subtle humor in the comic, to appeal to the younger demographics, in that Lyzzy mentions the "Islands of Carrion," a verbal contrast to the preceding names such as "Jyqqykkhxz" and "Xyxyyxyz." Finally, author's comments inserted above the panels form a close relationship between the author and the reader; thus involving the reader more in the story.
Because of the huge efforts that go into making every comic, I will only release one once a year (and not on leap years), but I am confident this minor setback will be overlooked and this new redesigned verion of the former On The Playground will soon become famous and loved by all.
Comments and praise will now be accepted.
ANARCHY! ANARCHY! ANARCHY!
