Response #2
I decided to take a look at Little Nemo and Peanuts, mostly because I'm a little bit more familiar with them. First of all as for Little Nemo, I've never and of the comics or anything but I know of it from the cartoon, as it was one of my favorites as a kid. But the comics still had the child-like innocence to them as they should, along with the simple child-like text. If anything one of my favorite panels were of the walking bed, mostly because I believe that dreams are suppose to be surreal, and for me I think it's the most surreal scene. The style also works well because it makes it look like an old antique children's story book and I think the light pastel colors help it be more dream-like. As for the Peanuts, I used to read them in the newspaper, but to be honest I can't remember the last time I picked up a newspaper. The Peanuts however, while still having that child-like innocence in them, are much more humorous. But I think that comes from that it seems that there is actual child steriotypes being used, which also helps out the type of text that is being used. The style also seems to be a bit more sketch-like and modern, as there are usage of simple, solid, bold lines, along with solid, bright colors. But of course, as for both of these, they're both for a younger crowd of people so of course they are censored.
