PLEASE USE FULLSCREEN!!!! press space, click, arrow keys or the onscreen arrow buttons to navigate through the slides. ==== oh boyyyy this turned out wayyyyy lengthier than I'd wished, and even with 130+ slides I still haven't covered everything this play has to offer. I've also probably created some slight inaccuracies by trying to compile the whole plot in a single comic, oh boy, does this thing have a THICK PLOT. so anyways, hope you enjoy my horrible take on King Lear, comic edition, that's filled with horrible dialogue and lazy art. ==== Note: I tried to tone down the violence and stuff and everything and kept it as pg as possible, but without SOME of the dying the story would not make sense, please click away if you are sensitive to that kind of stuff. ==== some notes: if you are having trouble telling the different characters apart: Lear – King of Britain (the one with the curly hair and beard Earl of Gloucester - the one with the spiky beard Earl of Kent – the one wearing the cap and glasses Fool – the one wearing the coxcomb Edgar (Gloucester's son) – short, dark hair, clean shaven Edmund (Gloucester's illegitimate son) – curly hair, clean shaven Goneril – Lear's eldest daughter, curly short hair Regan – Lear's second daughter, curly dark hair Cordelia – Lear's youngest daughter, straight, flowing hair Duke of Albany – Goneril's husband, curly black hair Duke of Cornwall – Regan's husband, you don't have to worry about him here he only appears like once or twice Oswald - I labelled him, dw (the character list is copied from Wikipedia, I just altered parts of it, I wasn't bothered to write the whole thing out) ====
Art and writing by me adapted from the play King Lear by William Shakespeare, you can read it here: https://www.folger.edu/explore/shakespeares-works/king-lear/read/
