What happened to little Richlieu? When Vladek begins telling this story on page 81, the first three panels are set in the past, while the bottom three panels return us to the present and show the old Vladek pedaling his stationary bicycle.

Question

Also... why do you think Spiegelman chooses to close this story in this way?
