WYIT is an all-ages graphic novel about a boy marked for death and a rogue soldier, finding friendship and redemption in a dark world.
Set in a Dieselpunk-Fantasy age of myth and machinery, the story of WYIT is a bit like if you took the anthropomorphic style of Disney’s Robin Hood and the unlikely character duo of Terminator II, set in the aeronautic world of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.
This comic originally started off as a therapeutic hobby to occupy myself with while recovering from a dark period in my life after the Marine Corps. Eventually the story took on a life of its own, leading to a world and characters I fell in love with, and I think you might too.
Fans of two-fisted pulp adventure like Lobster Johnson, Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Rocketeer might especially enjoy WYIT. Basically it’s the graphic novel I wish the library had when I was younger.
The book is independently written and drawn by myself, and is currently in the inking stage of production.
The next step will be to launch a crowdfunding campaign to support the book’s completion and publishing as a fully-colored, printed graphic novel.
