Artist Statement/Author's Commentary on future comicbook

Unlike the previous comicbook that I proposed, an old story that I wrote a long time ago will serve as the dialogue of the comicbook. I want this to be a graphic novel more so than a regular comicbook. I have read graphic novels, animes and classic style comicbooks and I came to the conclusion that classic comicbooks do not do a good job sending a compelling message. Instead, they tend to trivialize it even more. I fine that anime lacks diversity in presenting its characters. They seem to me to be cookie-cutter. I think that a more individualistic approach to creating the characters will be best for this graphic novel, especially when the themes are topics such as libertarianism, culture shift, human rights and collectivism. The story and the graphics will still be science fiction themed. I hope to either eventually add color, or make an adult version of a coloring book. I think if I had more supplies, I'd add color to the graphic novel.
