Mechanical Comics #1

~ Ernesto Priego
A comic book page of ten panels, first showing a sequence of sky, clouds, se and sand, then gradually moving downward to show in the last three panels a human figure on the ground with a rifle, then an animal leg, then an elephant is revealed in the whole scene. The notion of "the elephant in the room" inspired this comic.
