I Spent Over 60 Days Making A Graphic Novel Version Of My Favorite Song, Hotel California

ADVERTISEMENT

I have been a fan of the song Hotel California by Eagles since I was a kid. As an adult, I fell in love with the idea of Graphic Novels. So I decided to join them together and visually imagine the song in my own way. This was a series that I ran on my Instagram page. Hope you enjoy it.

My name is Violeta and I am an editor here at Bored Panda. I love reading memes for a living. It’s obviously much more than that, but I appreciate the variety of topics, information, and pics I get to see every day and share with the world! Those funny memes really make my day too. Being born in the ’90s in post-Soviet Lithuania speaks more about me than I’d like to admit. I’m still learning about the world and myself, but I do love my friends, traveling, art, and my cat. My favorite fact to share about myself is that I used to hide meatballs in my friend’s pockets at lunch so I could go play outside. I wish all those meatballs could find their way back to me someday.

Brilliant in so many different ways: technique, medium, colour choice, narrative (how you present the strips) and detail. What do you hope to do next?

I hope that's a praying man at the end, the best way to end it is on your knees. You are extremely talented my friend.

Thank you so much Cynthia. The idea was definitely to show someone who is now tired and ready to submit to a higher power.

At the end you forgot a line. Relax "said the night man" we are programmed to receive you can check out any time you want but you can never leave. The part in parentheses is what you forgot

Hey! Yes that was intentional. I took the liberty to tell the story in a different way using the graphic medium. But I guess the word 'Nightman' could have added a more appropriate flavor to the narrative!
