[sblock]Rodrigo Istalindir  A sweet story about problems with fantasy creatures in a modern world. This feels like a "good enough" story, but is missing the little extra. It might be that I have read far too much fantasy and mythology (is that possible?) but I have the same feeling as with Piratecat's story: I've seen this before. The new setting isn't enough to make this feel like a new and exciting story. Perseus finds a way to look at Medusa, and gets the job done. The small twist with saving Medusa instead of killing her didn't do much for me, I didn't get enough of her story to sympathise.The picure use is varied. I liked the "priest and zombie" and the "dancers -> doctor & nurse", The video-picture is ok, noth more and the penguin (even though very realistic) is a bit of a throw away and the baby wasn't very exciting for such an interresting picture.And then what seems to be a reccuring problem this round: "I found perched in a comfy chair ". Who? What?. Missing words makes a jarring interruption for me in a normal text. Som a small minus for that sentence.All in all a godd story, but maybe a bit bland.tadk I'm always a bit scared to start on your stories, as I never know what ride you will take me on... This time it is a bit of a dark future thingie. As often before it is a lot of seemingly disconnected picures and scenes, and I feel a story underneath, but this time it is a little too well hidden. I'm normally not very good at picking up symbolism and layers and i have a vague feeling of not quite getting all of it this time. Of cource, there is always the question then: "Is there a deeper meaning and symbolism, or is it just empty words?" I don't think this is empty, but I can't pinpoint the story this time.The picures feel right, and I have a consistent feeling of the mood. But I still feel it is a little bit too obscure for me, and not as strong as the last round.So a thight contest, I think.[/sblock]Håkongoing to read other comments and a judgement.</blockquote>
