The graphic novel Terra Australis debates the theme of culture clash. The novel takes place in Australia and here we meet “the white men” on the great ship and “the dark men” of the woods.
A parallel is drawn between the two cultures. Though the purposes for their actions are undoubtedly different, both the white and the black men hurt their own people throughout the novel, leaving us with the impression that the two cultures might not be so different after all.
