Chanticleer, John Bull and Sophocles meet and talk about the week. It's been quite tense and difficult and they relate what's going on on campus with the present economic and social concerns. They use school jargon. Chanticleer studies Teleco, John Bull Economics and Sophocles Humanities.
I'm sure you like fables. The use of animals in dialogues to discuss social, political, philosophical principles is well known in literature. Each animal is normally assigned a set of conventional values. Chanticleer talks a lot and well, John Bull works and works, Sophocles studies and imitates human nature.
Why have I decided to create this strip? To experiment with symbolic values a little bit. Besides, I had in mind some books that I had to read when doing my English Degree. In FirstYear I had to read Watership Down, later on, Animal Farm, later on some political works that used animals as symbols.
It's been a busy weekend fighting a mild flue. Let's see how things are next week.
