Comic #5629: color
Description
Here’s a detailed, disability-friendly description of the comic:
Panel 1: A young boy lies on a bed. His expression is curious and slightly puzzled. A woman, likely his mother, stands nearby, looking down at him. She has shoulder-length black hair, wears glasses, and is dressed in a yellow shirt. She says, "Mom, how is it possible that yellow and blue make green?"
Panel 2: The woman responds, "It helps to think in terms of murder." Her expression is serious, and she gestures with her hand to emphasize her point.
Panel 3: The woman continues explaining: "Blue paint is just paint that murders every color but blue. Yellow paint is paint that murders every color but yellow." Her eyes are wide, and she looks animated as she describes this concept.
Panel 4: She adds, "When you combine the two, a scattered remnant at their border, called green, is all that remains." She points to the side, indicating an idea about the colors.
Panel 5: In a more serious tone, she remarks, "This is both anthropomorphic and not appropriate for children." She looks concerned, and the boy has a confused expression.
Panel 6: Finally, she concludes with a mischievous grin, "Then we introduce red to finish them off." The boy smiles, and the panel shows them both playful, with the mother continuing her playful approach to explaining the concept.
The comic uses humor to explore the concept of color mixing through a surreal narrative involving murder and anthropomorphism.
