I decided to do a before and after of Rapture for shits and giggles. The first one is from 2012. That's the very first design he ever had. The second one is the latest design (2015), and how he will look in the series. Fun fact: The moment Rapture is introduced, he was supposed to die. He was a very very minor villain that had no importance to the plot whatsoever. After protest from all of my assistant writers, I wrote a version of the series where he lived. The main deciding factor was because he was gay. I felt like too many homosexual characters in media are killed off, and I didn't think it was fair that his death was so sudden. it also promoted the idea that homosexual characters are preceived as the enemy. He was a flat character with a flat motive. I redid his backstory so it was more in depth and complexity. Now he is not only my favorite character, but by far the most well written character in the entire series.  I can't wait for everyone to meet him. Sooner or later Vacant will be off of hiatus! I promise.
