This is one of Watchmen's more prominent scene
whereby Rorschach AKA Walter Joseph Kovacs was framed and got
caught by the policemen. The writer Alan Moore and artist Dave Gibbons used
various panel transitions for this page, mostly subject to subject, action to
action and aspect to aspect (not really sure whether there is).
From the third last panel to the second last
panel, the gutter allowed closure. Just by seeing the two panels, one can tell
that he has been removed from the scene but, how did he get out of the place,
did the police drag or carry him, it is all up to our imagination.
2 different types of speech bubbles were used. One cloudy and one normal
bubble. It seems as if the cloudy bubble is used to indicate his altered voice
while he is in disguise. And when he is unmasked, his "voice"
returned back to normal thus the normal speech bubble. Sounds like kaaaah and
aaaanh were also used in speech bubbles to bring more effect to the comic.
Showing more emotions and life in the character.
A few types of image text interaction are also identified. For example,
Picture specific:4th panel (uuk)
Duo:2nd panel (kaaah)
Additive: 3rd, 3rd last panel (everything balances)
