We then introduce The Primortals of Etrah, three supreme beings placed on world’s to protect the balance of life by Omoni – the god of life. And their arch nemesis Saaghan, created by Modaka – the god of balance. 

Naturally they clash and we find ourselves telling the story of the aftermath of this clash some 500 years later. Where we follow the journey of The Old Lady and the young boy, Jakob.

Comic Design Process Overview

The Web of Ideas

We kick off the process by creating a character description document, which includes personality type, wants, needs and fears and anxieties. We then create a story beat-sheet which is an outline of the story – we’ll visit this again in the script writing stage.
