Alice Helps the Bread to Raise

This Sunday strip adapts Lewis Carroll's *Alice* into comic-strip form, following the visual conventions established by the newspaper page: sequential panels with speech balloons, recurring characters, and sight gags built on exaggeration. The strip shows Alice and companions attempting to bake bread that rises impossibly tall—a physical comedy sequence that unfolds across six panels. The artist employs the expressive line work and character types typical of early 1900s newspaper comics, where literary sources were frequently mined for syndicated entertainment. The composition demonstrates how the nascent medium borrowed from both illustrated storybooks and vaudeville timing to create humor through visual progression.
