Question

The excerpt from Gareth Hinds graphic novel Beowulf depicts the moments just before the battle between Beowulf and the dragon. Which of the following statements accurately compares the graphic novel's presentation of this scene with the presentation in the poem?
A. The presentation in the graphic novel builds suspense by showing the long trek in the snow to the dragons lair. The presentation in the poem builds suspense by describing Beowulf's thoughts and feelings of weakness as the battle progresses.
B. The presentation in the graphic novel carefully depicts the fierceness of both Beowulf and the dragon. The poem's presentation describes only Beowulf's fierceness, not that of the dragon.
C. Both presentations create tension - the graphic novel through wordless images of Beowulf's approach, the poem through vivid description of the same scene.
D. Both presentations include details - images in the graphic novel, words in the poem - that indicate the Geats' fear that Beowulf may be defeated.
