Solomon Kelly awakes from a plane crash to find there are no survivors and he is stranded in the middle of nowhere. He is greeted by a group of men who resemble monks that take him to a monastery and teach him how to unlock a secret power within himself The Living Weapon Linear Narrative structure Teens/young adults male usually however it isn’t gender specific. Super hero Graphic Novel

I’ve chosen sharp changes in boxes to show the severity of the situation This would be to show a conversation which is why it is slow and long This is long but sharp so this would show a fight or argument

Dialogue bubbles/ thought bubbles/ captions for sound effects I will have speech in this but nothing more than a paragraph as I don’t want to fill the pages with bubbles In thought bubbles I will have small pieces of dialogue for thought nothing too long I wont have many of these as in my opinion it is overkill but I will have action words in here

Script development 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) Solomon ends up in the crash. Trains his powers with the monks. Leaves as he finds out they made the crash happen. Goes back to “Rat. Ford”. Finds out how the powered are being treated. Makes a team to help fight the police.

Camera angles/shots • The camera angles I will be using will be dependant on the type of scene: Fighting Scenes - Wide Shot Emotional/Plain discussions - Close ups Large scenes - Establishing Shots

Ideas for the creation of the comic world The story is set in a dystopian society (on earth) in a parallel universe where there are people who are born with or later develop powers. They are called “The Minority” by the Police whose sole purpose is to keep the powered people at bay and make sure they stay in their designated towns away from the normal powerless people. These police armed with Armor and guns used to prevent them from being killed by Extreme temperatures, and change in pressure and can withstand a large amount of force from either pressure or objects hitting them. In the “M-Towns” the buildings are old and run down not entirely destroyed but badly damaged from people fighting and using their powers. Outside the towns it is clean and white washed to represent “Purity ” while inside it is dirty and the main colours are depressing with brown and grey undertones. Our story takes place in a slum

My Character Solomon Kelly, Black hair, mixed race, 6’ 3, big build broad shoulders, charismatic but anger gets the best of him most of the time. He finds it easy to make friends especially with other powered people as he has a soft spot for them. One of his best friends is a man with technomancy (Kenny Conrad) and they tend to fight together to help the “Minority”. Backstory: Solomon Kelly awakes from a plane crash to find there are no survivors and he is stranded in the middle of nowhere. He is greeted by a group of men who resemble monks that take him to a monastery and teach him how to unlock a secret power within himself
