Over a black backdrop, white text reads, "There is a hunger within me." In the bottom right corner, there is a red glow. Panel 1: Over a dark grey backdrop, a pale skinned, dark haired woman holds her hand over her chest. She is not wearing a shirt. There is something glowing over the centre of her chest. Text reads, "It feeds on the things I love," Panel 2: Over a light grey backdrop, a shadowy figure of a woman, spotlighted by black. The woman is keeled over. Text reads, "leaving me to rot with my dead, dead, soul." Over a dark grey backdrop, it is the same woman from before, now clothed. She appears to be turning away from the viewer, holding a very large black hat on her head. Text above reads, "If it so wishes to pour gasoline upon the fire of my rage," Panel 1 (above): The woman is facing away, arms spread out. Text reads: "then it shall receive the performance to remember." Panel 2 (below): Over a black background, text reads, "The stars shine brightlu tonight, don't they?" "Do you think they care about us?" "If I died, would you miss me?" "Of course I would. Even though you've changed, you're stil, my dear sibling." The last line of dialogue is in red, while all the others are white.

a cat, a rabbit, and a hamster walk into a bar.
A hand-drawn drawing of a cartoon rabbit, cat, and hamster. It has clearly been edited to have a plain white background.

Grief & Subjdctivity: Circus of Crows' Depiction of Horror My mother died when I was 11. At the time, I didn't fully understand what that meant. She would just be gone for a while, right? In Circus of Crows' most recent episoden "3: Day of Mourning", we as an audience are left with a question to reflect and ponder on: who defines 'sin'? Traditionally, Day of Mourning is a statutory holiday intended for the acknowledgement and commemoration of our dead. It began with the murder of the Circus' fifth ringleader, also known as Five. Circus of Crows' interpretation of this day of grief and mourning brings into perspective how normalized death is in our society here on the Isles. "3: Day of Mourning follows Ningyo, the newest crew member, through her first experiences in this new society and home. Through this outsider's perspective, we can see judt hoe grim the life led here can be. At the start of the episoden we are invited to observe how the Circus uses this day. However, it is far from ordinary: shadlws where they shouldn't be, blood splatters in the strangest locations, and strangely, no indication from thr crew that anything is amiss. As if it's normal, and not cause for immediate concern. In the later half, we are brought over to a conversation between Ningyo and afive, had during the lunch break. It is here, where the topic of subjectiveness js brought up: whose stories survive, and how foes that affect a future observer's view on the past?
