Description of Comic

I made a comic strip that consists of just three frames that I arranged in a horizontal pattern. The space in between each frame is indicating the time elapsed between each picture. In the first frame, the monster was placed in a beach setting and had a sad look on his face. I think that it is easy to see that he is not happy. The words that he says explain why he isn’t happy; he doesn’t like to be at the beach because there isn’t anything fun to do. In between the first and second frames, somebody sees the monster, and throws a bucket to him. By the time the reader sees the next frame, the monster has changed his expression to a surprised face that has a little bit of hope. Maybe he can have fun at the beach. In between the second and third frame, the monster spends time building his sand castle. This space represents a larger amount of time than in between the first two. By the time the reader sees the final frame, the monster has built a sand castle and his expression has gone from sad, to surprised, all the way to extremely happy. The comic starts off with a problem, there is a solution, and then the end is happy.
