my extra credit project for english class (i don't even need extra credit in that class and wasn't asked to do an extra credit assignment of any sort but i got bored and did one for amusement)
our english class is reading LORD OF THE FLIES and this is page 143 from the novel. i like this novel, its violent and interesting and totally twisted and disgusting...its great :D (most people hate it though) anyone ever read it? if you haven't you probably won't get whats going on. slight explaination: the moral of the story is that human beings have an evil nature inside them. while the children in the story are trapped on a deserted island, some search for "the beast" they all fear, they miss the fact that there is no physical beast on the island but that the real beast is an evil force inside them. everyone misses this except the quiet boy named simon (shown in the comic) who the others think is a little strange. simon sees the other boys on the island slowly becoming more violent and savage. this is his "conversation" with the severed pig's head which was left as tribute to "the beast" so that it would not become angered and eat the other children. simon knows theres no real beast living on the island...in fact, the pig's head tells him so.

did that make sense? if it didn't you might wanna read the book cuz i suck at explainations

Cool! ^w^ I also read this book for English, and was probably the only one in my class who liked it. xD And you also drew Simon and the pig's head really well, they look exactly how I pictured them. ^_^
:icongraysongirl:
wow. You got to draw a comic for extra credit? no fair. lol

But this is very cool, we're reading the book too (I'm the only one in the class who likes it)
