Dream Narrative

My dreams are usually unclear and abbreviated - very difficult to make a comic out of. I gave it a try. I'll likely add to this later as I figure out what to do with it. 

Page 1

Panel A: The format is a six panel page. The scene opens on the top four panels of the page. It’s a bizarre landscape with twisting rivers and craggy rock formations. Fountains of a mysterious neon green gas sprout from the river in places.

Panel B: Three vague figures approach the bank of one of these rivers with a canoe.

Panel C: Two of the figures jump in the boat as the third pushes it into the water.

 

Page 2

Panel A: The third figure jumps into the boat.

Panel B: One figure to the others: “I’ve been waiting a long time for this.”

Panel C: Four panel block. The figures move down with the current. There is an uncertain landscape ahead of them.

 

Page 3

Panel A: As they go down the river, the figures begin noticing the odd columns of green gas coming up from the river.

Panel B: One of the figures stops the boat with his hands by grabbing onto one of the rock pillars.

Panel C: The figure places his hand over the vent. “It’s warm.”

Panel D: The figure lets go of the rock vent and they continue moving along the river of black and blue. They pass more vents.

Panel E: “I wonder what these are”, one of the figures asks. “Leftovers, I think”, one of the figures answers.

Panel F: One figure, more aware than the other two, notices something ahead. “It’s a drop-off. Get ready.”

 

Page 4

Panel A: Page illustration from a birds-eye view. The boat plummets from a giant black waterfall. A sphere of golden light surrounds the figures and their boat. One of them seems to be causing it.

Panel A: They land with a large splash below.

Panel B: Everyone seems alright.
