Critics Acclaim
Monster Soup seems to go a step above readability and even pacing/flow by matching the panel shape with the content for mood. Monster Soup uses expansive panels stretching past borders to “set scenes” or to show meaningful moments between characters.
'Monster Soup' is more conservative for the most part, and uses mostly traditional rectangular panels, only going for more elaborate designs when the page's sequence of events demands some special impact.
With Monster Soup, it feels like a great deal of thought went into matching the layout to the scenes, moods, and actions.
The layout never feels like it impedes you smoothly transitioning from panel to panel, and from a purely aesthetic standpoint, every page holds together as an elegant composition in and of itself. The dark page backgrounds feel appropriate for the subject matter, but occasionally for a lighter scene (like the ballroom), you get an ethereal glowing page backdrop that enhances your sense of place and, for a brief moment, chases the shadows away.
