The page count was reduced to 8 pages, but is told in what must have been the original 79 panel script. Had it been published as the original 10-page story, it would have averaged one 7-panel page and nine 8-panel pages (7-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8 or 7-8-8-8-9-8-8-8-9-6 or some other combination). As published, the panel-count per page presents as: 9-10-10-10-10-11-11-8. Artist H. R. McBride makes it look effortless, a testimony both to his graphic skill and talent, and to Du Bois's script narrative. |
