The astonishing tales of Little Red Riding Hood
Page 1
Panel 1: Red’s is sitting in a bench. All we see is her and the bench. White background.
CAPTION: Little Red Riding Hood grew up amidst wolves and digested relatives.
Panel 2: A big panel pulling back on the image, revealing the train station where she’s sitting. This train station is weird.
CAPTION: Perhaps it’s this fact above all others that explains her skewed views on reality.
Page 2
Panel 1: We’re in a forest and Red’s prancing her way up this yellow brick road.
CAPTION: Earlier that day, walking through the trees with a gleeful smile on her face, she would have never imagined where life would take her.
Panel 2: Close up of Red’s face, looking a bit like this emoticon on Yahoo /:) ( =P )
CAPTION: And it all started with one man.
Panel 3: We see a man standing by a lamp post looking in Red’s direction.
Panel 4: We see Red walking towards the man, getting closer.
CAPTION: “Hello” she said. “Hello” he answered.
Page 3
Panel 1: Red lowers her Hood as she talks to the mysterious man.
CAPTION: She said it was most strange walking into him, a total stranger.
Panel 2: We get a good look at this man’s face, with his head turned in her direction. His look again is totally up to you.
CAPTION: He, in kind, said that he was most fortunate to run into such a beautiful young lady.
Panel 3: Red blushing, smiling nervously.
Panel 4: A bigger panel pulling back the shot a bit, showing us their conversation and the setup.
CAPTION: He asked her in a polite manner where she was headed. “Montgomery” she responded.
Panel 5: Another view point of this conversation.
CAPTION: He advised she take the train…it’s the fastest way.
Page 4
We start out with a glimpse of Red’s eyes…in them we see a tiny silhouette of the man leaning on the lamp post. It’s an extreme close up of Red and we start pulling out of it to reveal her frowned expression. This can be done in as many panels as you deem necessary.
Final panel:
CAPTION: “You look angry”
Page 5
Panel 1: Red’s still frowning.
Panel 2: She starts giggling, covering her mouth with her hand.
CAPTION: Her amusement was inversely proportional to his size.
Panel 3: We see a very small man—Ant-Man proportions, standing in her leg while she’s seated in her bench.
CAPTION: Truth be told…
Panel 4: We’re seeing the world, and more importantly this specific situation with him standing in her leg, through the small man’s eyes. He sees everything smaller. In his mind he’s a giant. You figure out how to present it.
CAPTION: Through his eyes the world wasn’t big at all.
Panel 5: Don’t make it a panel per se but a small bench with Red sitting in it in the middle of nothing. You know what I’m talking about…like a big panel at the bottom of the page but without the actual paneling.
CAPTION: He asked what the problem was to which she responded generously.
CAPTION: “Perhaps I’ve been tricked again.”
Page 6
I want you to figure this page out. I’ll give you the captions, you deal with the layout.
CAPTION: She explained about the wolf misleading her.
CAPTION: About the wolf eating her grandmother.
CAPTION: About the wolf dying.
CAPTION: About the man by the lamp post.
CAPTION: About the train she was taking.
Page 7
Panel 1: The train arrives.
Panel 2: Small man talking.
CAPTION: The small man mused that it was a pleasant coincidence…they were both catching the same train.
Panel 3: Red holds Small man in the back of her hand as they walk into the train.
Panel 4: She’s sitting.
Panel 5: A non-panel again, with a plate. Her breakfast. What’s in it? Your call.
Page 8
Panel 1: Small man’s face.
CAPTION: The small man said he was going to the end of the world. Two stops after Montgomery.
Panel 2: We pull out to reveal Small man’s walking through the breakfast plate.
CAPTION: He told her of the werewolves.
Panel 3: A man turns into a werewolf.
CAPTION: He said wolves lacked the neural capacity to comprehend, therefore they couldn’t speak. Let alone ruse her into taking the wrong path.
Panel 4: We see Red from a lower angle…like she’s huge. She’s eating her breakfast in the train. She looks surprised.
Page 9
This whole page is made up of different panels showing Small man walking through the gigantic foods that make up Red’s plate. In the distance Red is eating.
The method is the same as page 6.
CAPTION: However, he said, there’s no scientific proof that states werewolves can’t deceive.
CAPTION: Whether it be in wolf form or the more accessible human persona, it appears she’s been a victim of a syndicate of sorts…
CAPTION: …a syndicate of shape shifters.
Page 10
Panel 1: A close up of Small man’s face.
Panel 2: Red’s eyes. Sort of falling asleep.
Panel 3: We start closing in on Small man’s mouth as he speaks. His mouth should look different in every panel to show his speech.
Panel 4: Red’s eyes. Falling further asleep.
Panel 5: Closing up on Small man’s mouth.
Panel 6: Red’s asleep, her eyes are closed now.
Panel 7: A black panel.
Page 11
This page is almost completely white. All we see is a small plate with her breakfast as seen from above.
CAPTION: Perhaps it was the food.
Page 12
Panel 1: We see Red asleep in another bench, in a different train station as a train is parting.
Panel 2: She wakes up.
Panel 3: We reveal that she’s at the end of the world. Big Panel. A sign reads “End of the world”. You figure out most of the details in the place. The end of the world is a train station amidst a plain. Off in the distance it ends. It just…ends. This world is square and our protagonists are living in it’s surface. Which happens to end here.
CAPTION: She missed her stop.
Page 13
Panel 1: Red’s sitting in the bench not knowing what to do. We’re looking at her from over Small man’s shoulder so we’re looking at her from a lower angle and she looks enormous.
CAPTION: I’m afraid there’s no going back now dear, said the small man.
Panel 2: Close up of Small man’s face.
CAPTION: The only place left to go is no place. You have to walk off the edge to find it.
Panel 3: Red turns to look at the edge.
Panel 4: Red starts crying.
Page 14
Panel 1: A non panel…a fried egg.
Panel 2: Red’s eyes as she cries.
Panel 3: Red sleeping in her train seat.
Panel 4: The wolf dressed up as grandma.
Panel 5: A sign that reads “Montgomery”
Panel 6: Red’s shoes as she’s walking away.
Page 15
Panel 1: We see red walking towards the edge.
Panel 2: The fried egg again.
Panel 3: A big long vertical panel showing Red’s profile as she’s standing by the edge of the square world.
Panel 4: Small man’s face. He looks happy.
Panel 5: We see Red’s shoes and the edge of the world as she’s walking off of it. Just feet and an edge.
CAPTION: Perhaps it was the food.

Yeah i know it sounds weird. That's kinda the point.
As soon as i saw this piece James drew [link] i felt like writing something trippy for him. Red seemed like as good a place to go as any. This one's 15 pages long and 6 Microsoft Word pages long so you'd better read it, it's easy reading.
You'll notice most of the visuals are left to the artist because i trust the artist a lot and all i want to see is his take on these brief descriptions of mine. That was the entire purpose behind the story. That and getting people to think about them metaphors.
It's weird, it's trippy, it's metaphoric. It's a light read if you want it to be, it's a thinker if you want it to be.
Please read, please enjoy.

The more masks I take off the more woman I become.
If I wasn't so sure I'd be wrong, I'd look for the symbolism you were telling me about. I have a bad history with finding symbolism--I ignore the obvious and dig too deep, and come out making no sense

So many pretty parts, never a pretty whole.

So if you're not going for the analysis, at least give me a review like you did with the Batman story. The good, the bad, the awesome, the terrible. Lay it on me sister!
But I get it. The eggs, right? A very female thing.
But seriously, I liked the script. It's creepy and unsettling, in the good way, that kind of makes you smile. James is illustrating right? I really can't wait to see the finished product. It's fun when you get images in your mind of what you think something is going to look like, and you get to see firsthand someone else's interpretation of the same thing. Like when you read a book, and someone makes a movie.
