Problem: While the second chapter is entitled "The Honeymoon," the chapter is filled with images of luminous circles: full moons, spotlights, and search lights. Does the moon imagery represent hope? Or does it represent an ominous and portentous sign of danger? In some panels, the image of a full moon gets transformed into the white circle that illuminates a swastika on the Nazi flag (35). How does Spiegelman use this background to shift the emotional tone of the narrative? Recalling that these panels feature scenes from before the war, what might such panels reveal about the conditions that enabled the Holocaust?
