Fina Assignment - Webcomic / Tunnel Book

Final Assignment - Webcomic / Tunnel Book

04/06/2018 (week 11)

This week, we were given a brief on our final assignment. The instructions were to choose any short story and either make a webcomic or tunnel book out of it. I decided to make a webcomic and I chose the short tory 'Pied Piper'.

Story:

The town of Hamelin was suffering from a rat infestation, a piper dressed in pied clothing then appeared, claiming to be a rat-catcher. He promised the mayor a solution to their problem with the rats. The mayor, in turn, promised to pay him for the removal of the rats. The piper accepted the offer & played his pipe to lure the rats into a river where they all drowned.

Despite the piper’s success, the mayor reneged on his promise & refused to pay him the full sum & blamed the piper for bringing the rats himself in an extortion attempt. Enraged, the piper stomped out of the town, vowing to return later to exact revenge. On the next day, the piper returned dressed in green like a hunter playing his pipe. In doing so, he attracted the town’s children. One hundred & thirty children followed him out of town. They all marched & went into a cave. Then, the children were never to be seen or heard again.
