Your comic started out really well with a really good plot line. The story had a lot of potential but the end of it was very jarring. The “princess” only manages to talk to the “hero” because of her Dutch courage and although the rude villain was a nice touch, it was very strange that they lived happily ever after. I don’t know if you were trying for a Proppian fairytale but you should have spread the story out a little more.

Your comic captivated me in the beginning, and looked appealing, but i feel that it was too short and ended abruptly. It would have been great if there was a more profound story line,as there seems to be lacking depth and creativity. There is only one disruption which is not so dramatic, and it is quite odd how the hero and the princess end up together and live happily ever after,after one small incident. You should have taken into account Todorov's ideology,this would have made it more interesting.Your layout and setting is great, although you could have added more effects as this would catch the readers attention.

Cane Train to the Rescue has the same concept as ‘All aboard the Cane Train’ the only problem is that the story line of Cane train to the rescue lacks creativity. The images are almost action filled but surely they could have worked harder. The story is so cliché and the ending they lived happily ever after is so fairy tale mentality. In my personal opinion the comic lacks a clear understanding of Propp’s character role and there is no clear distinction of the disruptions which take place. I mean came on journalism students are meant to be more creative than that think outside the box; I was not entertained by the comic it’s totally boring. I suggest you go through different genres and learn what ‘narrative and genre’ really is. If you really want to know how cane train can really rescue someone try read a more creative comic; ‘ALL Aboard the Cane Train’ that is what I call true creativity.
