would you buy this comic?

Question

here's the plot:
"It’s the mid-twenty-first century and lack of oil and water has lead to brutal wars amongst and even within countries. Europe is in a state of chaos, the middle east no longer exists and Africa is the sole unhindered refuge upon the planet – bar a few tiny islands nobody cares about. The United States of America are far from united and the civil war that broke out years ago prevents anyone from leaving or entering the border. The once superpower of the world is now devided into two sides, which fight each other for dominance over the remaining land that can still provide humans with sources for survival. The hero of the story is a boy in his late teens, who works for the Alliance. He does undercover work, sabotage and other forms of espionage against the opposing rebels. But a fatal mistake he made during an important mission may well cost his entire group their Cause and perhaps even their lives. Its is a mistake he will do anything and everything to make up for. Little does he know, that the Other Side has planted a spy within their midst. A spy very few – if any – people suspect. Only one person sees the spy’s true colors...

At the same time, we have another hero – this time a girl, who works for the Other Side. However, the people on this side call it the Allegance. Her job is to send messages from one compound to the next and to help transfer important devices or even people from one dangerous point to another. Her parents were killed in the Burn-out and, ever since, her family has been the Allegance. The General acts like a father to her but never stops her from taking dangerous assignments, because he believes them to be character-building and teach her to survive in the new world order.

The period the story opens into is the preparations for the ultimate War between the two sides of Post-America. Both sides feel confident for their victory but only one of them can win. It’s really more a matter of timing than it is anything else... "

what do you like and what don't you like about the storyline?
if you'd buy the comic, which specific part of its story would make you do so?

(this is a survey so please only answer truthfully and with details)
Thank you very much!!

Answer 1

Brilliant imagination!



Just that the characters are a little too young to be who they are. Couldn't they be a little older, like in their twenties, for taking such responsibilities and staying successful in them? I mean, this kind of work would want them to be at least a little more skilled and experienced.



It would be nice to show them in a little struggle with their loyalties. I'm saying this because the setting shows a world in chaos. And in such times, it becomes hard to know if you are on the right side, with all the sides lacking something or the other in being the right, the good, side.



I too would say that this intense storyline asks for a novel, a book, rather than go on in a comic series. But then again, I'm not much of a comic-book-lover, so this opinion of mine might be biased.



If its a book -one complete, intensely written novel, with more realistic approach towards the story-writing, I'd love to buy it. And if it lives up to my expectations in terms of someone from today's confused world coming up with hope/ideas/answers/imagination for tomorrow, I'd love to recommend it to my friends too. And yes, a good end would make it a best-seller! ;)



Start the good work now!

Answer 2

Wow, the storyline is very intense and an amazing one. It's an amazing setting with, I suppose, countless civil wars and battles going on all at the same time. It is a very imaginative look at what the world may sort of look like in the future if specific events occur. How will both sides continue on, how will the battle play out, what is the main difference between the opposing sides? I would definitely buy it as long as it reads well.

Answer 3

I'd suggest the "ultimate spider-man" series If you want it for the stories you can find trade paper backs at a lot of libraries. If you want some to keep, the the comic shop will work or a books a million never lets you down. happy reading!

Answer 4

Did you think this up? If you did, it was quite good! Except i think, most people will want to read more fantasies or with good imagination (E.g. Naruto, Special A, InuYasha,etc,etc) But i think i will buy it, wouldn't the general be a bit crazy thinking that this is a survival course when you can actual get killed. Not a very survival lessons! i quite like the story plot. ^^

Answer 5

the story's plot is quite interesting ......although i think it would do better as a full fledged book rather than a comic seeing its intensity .....yea i would buy one .....it really would be interesting 2 venture into a situation u mentioned ......so wen are u going 2 publish it ...it'll be interesting 2 read about the time when the whole world's fallen apart once again ....i hope such a situation never really comes up ...that'll be the end of it then !!!

Answer 6

I like this story but I wonder what people will think about it in the future :)

I'd by it if I were a comic lover.
