Does Not Illustrate: Narrator

Given that the Narrator is literally appearing as a character and the caption is talking about his mother, is that not more Character Narrator?

I guess this is nitpicky, but Narrator feels too broad and has too many subtropes to have 2000+ valid wicks.

We had a thread a couple of months back that clocked out...and it should've been noted on the page. I'll do that now.

More on the "guy reading book" idea: what about this take on the Narrator from Into the Woods?

I don't know. I think this might be a BUPKIS case.

Found here◊. Feel free to try a better transparency.

With its caption, the current just works, and because you can see the scene he's narrating, I find it clearer than the smurf.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

I suggested that in the previous thread to no dice. Still like it though.

I honestly don't find any of the suggestions illustrative at all, to me they're all just people reading books.

They are visibly reading the books out loud, which is I think is a fairly good representation of the concept of the disembodied voice by which the story is told.
