Mini comic ideas!! + Chapter 5 update
7 months ago
So, i'll just give it to you straight; chapter 5 is still a ways off. Changes in my personal life as well as rebooting my characters at the beginning of this year has added even more complications as I try to write and finish this story. I definitely want to finish it, and I still believe the best parts of the story are yet to come, but in the meantime I need to figure out what form this rebooted Wastelanders universe even looks like.
So, in the immediate future, and to get me back into the swing of making comics, I'm planning a few one-off stories. They will ideally start and finish in about the size of a regular Wastelander Drex chapter. I would love for these to be little digestible stories that don't require a ton of knowledge of backstory to enjoy, nor the huge time commitment of a multi-chapter story. Kind of like episodes of a TV show like tuning in every week for Batman: The Animated Series.
Here are some of my ideas, and I would love to hear which of these stories interest you the most down in the comments...
1. Drex wakes up in the middle of the night when he hears a crash in the room next door. Suspecting that they are being raided, Drex rushes in only to discover that Annie had already subdued the interloper. But, the intruder's intentions were not what they first seemed...
2. Drex develops a cure for Annie’s condition, but the process in which the new experimental serum is created harbors a dark secret. Drex must now present Annie with his findings, unsure of how Annie will react.
3. While on vacation, Drex and Annie are attacked by a mutant who can amplify and control their own bio-electricity. But, it turns out that this attack was anything but random, as the attacker is revealed to be an important figure from Annie’s past.
4. Overhearing a radio talk show, Annie becomes enraged when a scientist with a vendetta against Drex attempts to slander Drexcorp under false pretenses. Annie sets out on her own to “set things right”, and Drex must stop her before she does something she’ll regret.
5. (Prequel) When Drex develops a new mutagenic compound that gives ordinary people superpowers (DX-14), the duo faces a reckoning when a violent gang uses it to seize power in the Wasteland.

Props for wanting to finish, but I hope this idea just doesn't keep adding to the workload as you try to develop the main story.
