• Excerpt

  OK. I solved the PDF crisis and I guess I was lucky to have a wordpress account setup last year. The link will take you to my the 5 pages I wrote a few days ago. A little background on it is appropriate... for those of you who don't normally read this blog.

  About a few years back, I illustrated a few pages for a comic called "Project Impact". It's set in a world where superpowers are out of control, primarily in the teenage population. A large majority of these kids don't go around saying, "Let's save the world and fight evil." Instead, super crime increases and America has an epidemic of sorts. Honestly, what's a bank vault when you have super strength? How will anyone identify you with that costume? Why not take what you want? With that said, Super Prisons were built to contain them, but it's like putting a band-aid on a cancer patient. It doesn't solve the problem in the long run. Enter Project Impact: a group of superheroes who create a program to train and guide these super powered delinquents as an alternative to super prisons. Fighting fire with fire, so to speak.

  

  Things didn't go as planned for the Image Comics submission, but I decided to skip the comic route and head straight for the silver screen. A screenplay has been brewing since the Fall season of 2009. I'm still pushing for a comic, but I feel like this can be successful as a movie, too.

  The link below is a flash back featuring Paranorma, a hero-in-training who is anything but ordinary.

  Take a gander.
