The Arrival is supposed to be read almost like we are seeing a storyboard of a movie or animated film. It doesn't have any words or anything written but we can still know whats going on within the visuals. It seems very dreamlike with mystical creatures, instruments, and places. It seems to take place with a realistic style but yet it seems to be very high fantasy. We get very interesting visuals and every action is told with at least a panel or two. The main character seems to be in a world that he doesn't really understand and I feel as the viewer I feel similar to the main character. We are kind of in this strange world with text and imagery that I don't think anyone can really understand. The new places the main character are visiting he seems lost and not sure where he is going. I think it's really successful in being able to tell the story simply and with a perspective that is unique.
