Not exactly morning anymore where I’m at but whatever. Sketch of our brains and brawn, our beauty and the beast, the dynamic duo, Esther and Rylan to get going.

Have we waited long enough? Trust me, I’m mad at myself that it took this long. And I better kick it into high gear with the semester beginning in a couple weeks.

I don’t know how many would be interested in reading this, but I’m going to try and launch an original comic series. It’s been on my mind for a while and I’ve thought of trying to make it my primary job if it can surpass what I make working retail. The biggest challenge was trying to nail down what idea I wanted to go with as an original concept and not part of an existing fanon. As much as I want to work on the plot of Boss English, Lucius, and the others in that group, it’s also designed too much to intertwine with the universe of Cuphead that breaking it off would mean some plot threads won’t work as intended. Alternately, I’ve thought of splitting Montana Davy and other characters in that neck of the woods off into their own property since they don’t have much to do with the Cupheadverse to begin with and the changes would be easier to make that leap. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to maintain inspiration on it as long as I’ve wanted to and while Wyoming and Colorado offer plenty of inspiration, I just happen to live in one of the most BORING parts of either state, my mom’s house isn’t much better, and visits to my dad’s house are so few and far between that it might as well not happen. Not helping is I still have memory of that backhanded compliment and working nights in retail means I’m not going outside anyway if at all. So, the only option left was to take a project I was previously working on, gutting it of any preexisting characters to make way for original characters, retooling the leads, altering the story into something new, and building upon this new incarnation called Comet’s Light.

I’ll get to the character that prompted the massive overhaul of this project, but until then how about our main leads?

In the original iteration that was All-Star Alpha, I wanted it to focus on a team of six leads in a Superhero AU crossover, which consisted of Elsa from Frozen, Maxie and Archie from Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Equius from Homestuck, Jak from the Jak and Daxter series, and a gijinka of the Pokemon Espurr. However, given how many characters that was to focus on and additional characters that could be found around the city, plus with more and more influences coming in, it quickly became too much to handle and put that incarnation on the backburner indefinitely. When I decided to return to this project following an interesting dream that introduced a new character, I cut the number of leads down to two and took the ones I stuck with to make new ones for the Comet’s Light iteration.

Esther Jones (top) was taken from the gijinka and reworked to make it less glaring, but still reflecting magical girl protagonists with wild hair and the origin of her powers still being from birth.

Rylan Evans (bottom) was originally going to be Jak in ASA but was reworked into someone influenced by the games throughout his life until experiencing some uncomfortably similar events that gave him the Vesper transformation.

For Comet’s Light, I plan for there to be serious villains and some fun villains. Roxy is one of the fun villains.
