the iron giant research

the iron giant Tedd Hughes 

the plot 
In 1957, a giant alien robot from outer space crashes into the ocean near the coast of Rockwell, Maine, and wanders onto the mainland and into the forest, where it becomes entangled and trapped in the power cables of an electrical substation . Nine-year-old Hogarth Hughes follows the trail of destruction through the forest left by the robot, finds it, frees it, and befriends it. The Iron Giant, which has lost its memory, accompanies Hogarth back to the house where he lives with his widowed mother Annie, and to sustain its energy tries to eat the rails off the ties of the nearby railroad tracks. Alarmed by the sound of an oncoming train, Hogarth tells the Giant to repair the tracks. But it takes too long, and the train collides with the Giant. Hogarth hides the damaged robot in their barn, and soon discovers that the individual parts of the robot are self-repairing.
Later that night, Hogarth returns to the barn with a stack of comic book  to read to the Giant. The Giant is impressed with superman , but distressed when he discovers a comic about an evil robot named 'Atomo the Metal Menace'. In response, Hogarth reassures the Giant, "You are who you choose to be". Later, Hogarth is forced to address the issue of death with the Giant when they come across a dead deer.

the iron man art work and illustrations

i like how the illustrations designs almost look like a mono print.  and also i like the use traditional techniques of just using black and white really makes the image standout.
