To use pathos you are required to appeal to emotion and touch the heart. Pathos is meant to evoke an emotional response. We can get this from several aspects of the cartoon, there appears to be embarrassment form the character giving the eulogy. Which as we all know that messing up in front of an audience can make us sick and make us feel bad for the person. And appeals to our emotional side
The cartoon made almost reminded me of of a Doctor Seuss book in some parts. Which makes sense because Dr. Seuss did such a good job of appealing to kids in a pathos way, by using emotionally loaded language, vivid descriptions through the pictures as well. So this cartoon can appeal to us in the same way, the few words that are in the piece are emotionally loaded. In the beginning we have the eulogy which is emotional for the speaker to mess up in front of all those people. Also by the way it is drawn it gives off a vivid distress to it. Which is exactly what pathos is supposed to do, get right at our heart.
So weather by the vivid description through the pictures or emotionally loaded language, they both have a way of evoking emotional responses although this was a very hard piece for me to dissect there was just so much going on at the same time. There is a feeling that this person was on drugs or had a real bad dream. There was a significance to the blank page at the end which was a way of putting a stop to all the craziness in this guys head and was a symbol of death. That in and of itself has a very pathos thing to do because it leaves us with an effect of death.
