Describe a cartoon – Example/Beispiel

Da immer wieder unklar ist, wie man einen Cartoon beschreiben soll, habe ich hier mal einen Cartoon beschrieben. Dies kann als Beispiel dienen, so ungefähr in die Richtung sollte eine Cartoonbeschreibung gehen.

Example Describe a cartoon

Cartoonbeschreibung Beispiel

In the cartoon, which is a black-and-white drawing, I can see two aliens, which are sitting in a huge space ship and talk to each other. The alien on the left says: “…” to the alien on the right, who has a obsequious facial expression.The viewer has the impression of sharing the place in the space ship with the two aliens who are talking to each other.
The space ship is obviously landed on earth which can be seen by the fact that two human beings are looking through the wind screen towards the two aliens in a very astonished or rather a puzzled way. Amazingly enough the aliens don´t seem to be bewildered about this situation but rather carry out a very normal dispute of being right.The payoff is that the aliens which are coming from a far planet are behaving completely same like the earthlings and are only disputing about unimportant things. Our image of the aliens usually is that the extraterrestrial intelligence is more suffisticated than our “atavistic” brains. But the cartoonist points out, that they are grappling with the same problems like the human race.
The cartoonist wants to point out his point of view that the aliens are very much alike humans in there emotional behavior. He works with exaggeration because such a situation would never exist, every normal person would be shocked about exploring a new race. In addition could be said, that the aliens have got a very strange appearance. They don´t care about the humans in any way.

    Hi there,

    there is a spelling mistake: it has to be “sophisticated” not “suff….”
