Boxer And Saints Analysis

Boxers and Saints are two companion graphic novels written by Gene Luen Tang,a famous writer

of graphic novels and comics.He said that he did two volumes because he wanted to give readers a

different perspective to explain Boxers.Some people think Boxers are terrorists while some people

may think Boxers are national hero.In my opinion,there's no absolute “good” or “bad” after I read

these two books.The main characters,Bao and Vibiana,are in opposition.However,they have many

similarities and differences,and when I see things from the view of the other side,I only feel their

motivations and actions are just common and reaonable.I think that's the most thought-provoking part

of the books.I believe that the author want us to review
Interstingly,when Bao and Vibiana crossed their lives in the story,the author used a lot of crossed

panels in two books to illustrate their different view.For example,there was a scene that before Boxers

started attacking Christian town,we saw that Boxers represented Chinese gods from Bao's view.

It gave me the feeling that they came for justice and righteous.However,from Vibiana's view,Boxers

looked savage.Those people came with rage and wanted to murder them.It was impressed that we

saw these crossed panels in the books.I think readers can easily be influenced from the emotion
