All right team, here's the dealio. I am part of this amazing anthology comic called Playlist that is currently trying to get enough funding through kickstarter to go to print. Check it out, this is pretty awesome -[link]

We're getting close to the end, and we're almost there, but we need a little extra bump to make it over that finishing line. So here's what I propose.

If you pledge at the $25 or higher level and send me the confirmation e-mail, I will do a 6x9 (ish) inked bust commission of the character of your choice and mail it to you separate from the Anthology. Yes, that's right, I'm giving you a reward at the FIFTY DOLLAR LEVEL for only 25. HALF OFF

So here are the details

Here's the deets:

1. PLEDGE NOW
2. Send me the e-mail from Kickstarter that registers your pledge to me at joan_darc87@yahoo.com
3. Let me know which character bust you want me to do
4. If the Kickstarter funds by March 17th (FIVE DAYS AWAY NOW), I'll draw you the commission and get it to you (expect it by the end of April/Early May)

Simple as that.

So, what are you waiting for - go pledge now! If you've already pledged at least $25 - send me the e-mail and I'll add you to the list. If you pledge at the 50, 74, 150, 200, or 300 level - we'll work out something even cooler than a 6x9 bust sketch.

  • Listening to: T.V playing in the background
  • Reading: Comic books!
  • Watching: American Horror Story
  • Playing: Play? Ha, ha! This is comics! It's super p
  • Eating: nothing
  • Drinking: water and tea, lot's and lot's of plain

After her death, the boy waited out the years until he was old enough to pay for his mentor's bail. Sadly, much to his disappointment, the mentor was either dead or already executed.
By then, the boy had grown into a (metaphorical) demon who had already claimed many lives (innocent and otherwise) with his manipulation. And he had his sights set on bigger things, hostile takeovers.

Looking back, my villain believes that his cruel nature was inevitable. Between his cousin's abuse and insecurity, something was bound to push him over the edge, at least during his college years. Just that, having all his emotional support snatched away triggered it early.

My main character was unlucky enough to fall under the category of my villain's hit-list. And by ruining his life, the villain has made a dangerous anti-hero out of the main character.

Following the tragedy, the boy brought soup to his cousin as usual, except he was oddly unfazed by the cousin's routine insults and laughter. Just sat there and calmly smiled as the cousin swallowed his soup. Course, the soup wasn't poisoned. No, he put traces of tainted water and toxin in his cousin's toothpaste. That way, the nurse responsible for brushing the cousin's teeth would fall under suspicion, whether she deserved it or not. It's chilling to think how meticulously this boy had planned and timed this gradual act of murder to look like failing health.

In the mean time, the boy had come to the conclusion that people who were against racism were just egotistic fanatical hypocrites blindly upholding a cause to the extreme. And if any of them were unlucky enough to cross his path, he'd make them miserable, especially so far as to drive them to suicide.
He also had the dark notion that "racism" gave him control over his life.
As a testiment to his twisted belief, he started by manipulating events so that his ex-crush would be killed.

This said-disaster led to devastating events, such as when the boy's mentor was arrested on grounds that he was in fact a member of the KKK. (To the boy, this was unfair because, despite that the KKK are bad people, the mentor was 'too nice' to go to jail forever.)

Following this, his crush disowned him as a friend when she saw how the arrest saddened the boy. The mentor was, after all, responsible for setting fire to her house last month, and for murdering a nieghbor she knew. (Though, the cousin may have influenced this by feeding her misinformation about how "racist" the boy was, based on his opinion.)

TWO BLOWS in one night. And that was when he snapped!... He always saw the world as one big puzzle you could arrange, it's people as pieces that could be used. But now something had released a part of him that would take advantage of that gift...

To be continued once more...

30 years ago, the villain was a quiet, meek (not to mention insecure and neurotic) boy who loved to day dream about how things connected in the world, like a giant puzzle. He grew up with his invalid cousin, who was the child of an Asian's Rights Movement fanatic. Being abusive, the cousin would torment the boy by accusing him of racism, having fun at the poor child's expense.

The boy also had a mentor who treated him well, and a crush who was african-american. There was an event, kinda like a festival dinner, where the boy felt like this was turning out to be a good day. But something went wrong, something traumatic that crippled what little mental health the boy had left.

After reading a browse of "How not to make a novel", I see your point.

I want to share my idea of the main antagonist of my story, but I am still wary. So I'll simply share a parallel version of the villain's backround.

My villain is a loathesome and manipulative racist, we'll say, who hides behind the facade of a respectable CEO boss's assistant. But he wasn't always like that. I'll explain in my next comment.
