Pseudonymity: A Comic Based on a 100 Word Story

This comic started as a 100 word story. I've played around a lot over the last couple of years translating work from one medium to another. It's fascinating to see how the form of each approach calls for modifications in the prior work, sometimes only cosmetic, sometime fundamentally changing the theme or story. Moving a work from micro-rant to blog to comic to song to video, etc. is a good metaphor for how the projection of our identities changes in different environments.

***MANDATORY PUN ALERT***

Of course, the issues surrounding identity and tracking are rarely so black and white.

:)

Actually, I'd be curious to see the comic with even less linear delineation and just depicted using shapes. Really emphasize the stark contrat between the art and the message.
