Epilogue 6

The ghost & Mrs. MuirFinally, the last clue. This is one of the few movies that make me cry for hours every time I watch them. Which is the reason why I hardly ever do so, because only thinking about it makes my eyes fill with tears. Even though it is mostly a funny and romantic movie, the last 10 Minutes are so heart rending, that I wouldn’t call it a comedy by any means.

The connection to D&M is the basic construction. As I said – mainly funny, but taking a severe twist at the end. The movie is much more dramatic, of course, but in consequence also happier, because unlike Death and the Maiden, the Ghost and Mrs. Muir finally get together.

If you’ve read along and still like it, you might want to go and continue reading the sequel, Death and the Maiden 2. That story is designed much more like a movie or a novel, less like a cartoon, which means that there is definitely less slapstick humour and more plot. If you don’t want this, you might also decide to stop right here. Thanks for reading either way! :-)

Welcome!

Welcome to the relaunch of my comic Death and the Maiden!

The relaunch was made in order to transfer the comic into a weblog. Within one year, the whole story will be published, one strip a day. Because of its regular updates, there will be NO Twitter comments or feeds. You can still add me to your Twitter contacts, but only updates of D&M part 2 will be announced there. If you want to get informed about part 1, please subscribe to the RSS feeds of this blog.

Yes, there is already a sequel to this story, which may seem a little odd, since this story is not even “finished”. Actually, it is. This comic has been online for many years. I decided to re-publish it in order to attract more and new readers.

The whole story is packed with hints and references. Whenever this occurs, I will give you the related background information.

Since the whole Death & Maiden section has once been part of my website Cartoon Tomb and there are a few pages that have not been transferred to the blog yet, you can still find them in their old place, along with the old layout. You’ll find the links to those pages in the right side-bar under “Misc”. Be warned that you will leave the blog by clicking there – not that anything spectacular happens then, but the layout slightly changes along with the linkbar. You can always come back though by clicking “part 1″.
