Reverie

Abstract or Summary of Project

Reverie is a project centered on the production of a comic book, developed through processes of
illustrative penciling, inking, editing and lettering, and features a book-length three act narrative. The graphic
novel is hand-drawn and inked by myself, and presented purely in black and white with additional digital
refinement.

The story details a hero, Vesper is taken from a war between Dreams and Nightmares by an otherworldly
monster, into her subconscious which she must escape with the help of an unlikely ally. The short graphic
novel of about 30 pages deals with the themes of war, the search for truth and Good vs Evil. The story is an exploration of contradiction and how the grey areas of war are manipulated to serve the powers that be.

The project serves to educate me in the processes of learning the developmental aspects in the craft of comic book drawing, writing and publishing. The project itself is actually an opening chapter to a larger story I hope to continue writing and illustrating
in the future.
