My mind nearly gasped when I first saw this poster, simply because of its unexpectedness. A broken Statue of Liberty would be such a deep impact on the country. It really drew attention to me though- the poster tells a tragic story in itself. The dark colors, battered Statue of Liberty, and smoking buildings really ignite a curious thought as to the story behind the poster. The font, and effect of the font, led me to believe the 'something' that had 'found us' has to deal with aliens(just my first thought). It is really compelling because it is such a powerful poster, especially with the focus on the broken, headless statue.
This poster has an interesting element of the forming of a flag, however it is one that I quickly glanced over looking at a sea of posters. It is very simple, however I saw simple posters on the site that were striking. A great concept, but the visual and text of the poster just did not appeal to me.
