Das Kindmonster
Silent Comic, 2020
First fleeing a monster that attacks their village, then fleeing another group of people that mean them harm, only to come face to face with a huge terrifying bird…the three orphaned siblings meet different hardships on their journey in this story.
Das Kindmonster is a comic completely without text. The story is based on an inuit tale and follows the adventures of three orphaned siblings. In my initial research for a story this story especially struck me sincethe events in this story seemed to have no bigger connection or morale, in contrast to the many western fairy tales that I am familiar with. Instead it is more like a collection of different situations where the protagonists meet various figures from folklore. The comic has a complete storyboard of 64 pages, of which 16 have been finalized.
