Set in post-apocalyptic Scandinavia, the webcomic incorporates Nordic mythology, focusing on an adventure into the external "silent world". Reviewers have praised it for its beautiful visuals and cartography. It received a Reuben Award in the "Online Long Form" category in 2015. OverviewStand Still, Stay Silent portrays a post-apocalyptic Scandinavia, where the countries are returned to their mythical Nordic past. Various legendary monsters roam the landscape, and people can use a form of magic. However, the disease and tragedy that caused the massive depopulation of the area is not largely focused upon; most people live a comfortable lifestyle. Sundberg is a large fan of maps and topography, making heavy use of projections of coastlines, mountains and fjords,[1] or charts like a language family tree.[2]Sundberg chooses to begin with a prologue disconnected to the main story; this depicts various families fleeing from the disease during its initial outbreak.[3] Instead, its primary plot focuses on a group of "poorly funded and terribly unqualified" group of researchers.[4] They head into the abandoned "silent world" after a 90-year period of isolation,[5] utilitising various forms of transport along the way.[1] The storyline focuses on the party's adventure from that point; it has been compared to a travelogue by Comic Book Resources. DevelopmentSundberg created the 500-page long "practice" webcomic A Redtail's Dream in 2012 while studying graphic design in the university of industrial arts in Helsinki. After finishing it, she started Stand Still, Stay Silent in November 2013.[6][7] Since then, she has held an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to publish a print version of the webcomic, which earned almost $125,000 USD.[8] On September 27, 2018, the first "adventure" of the comic ended, with Adventure 2 beginning on October 14, 2018.[9][10] ReceptionEtelka Lehoczky of NPR praised Sundberg's artwork, saying that "her style isn't unique, and it certainly isn't experimental, but it's perfectly assured" and that though Sundberg's characters "are immediately situated in a comfortable cartoony world", the post-apocalyptic compositions and intricate maps of the world are "awe-inspiring".[8] Emily Gaudette of Inverse called the artwork in Stand Still, Stay Silent reminiscent of J. R. R. Tolkien’s drawings of Middle-earth and described it as "breathtaking".[11] The comic's narrative technique was commended by Emma Lawson of Comics Alliance, who called its use of exposition "interesting", and praised the fantasy-esque take on a post-apocalyptic setting.[5] Lauren Davis, writing for io9, concurred, stating that "Sundberg has a remarkable ability to balance the charming and the creepy".[3] Opposingly, Comic Book Resources stated that the excessive use of character profiles "tends to take you out of the story", though they still recommended the comic overall.[1] In 2015, Stand Still, Stay Silent won a Reuben Award in the "Online Long Form" category.[12] Books
