Hi,

I haven't meant to spam everything paragon related but I may have done that. Sorry! Regardless, I feel some things need to be done to make sure people do not end up messing things up. I feel some rules should be established so in someone's comic they cannot blow up the entire earth cus that would mess up the larger continuity. I feel if someone has a big concept they'd like to establish, they should come to you. This will help keep things fun and clean, a 1960s level of simplicity and fun mixed with modern day storytelling. Hope that makes sense.

Talking of big concepts, I'd like to establish the idea of gods into my comic. The idea is, that gods once walked the earth as superhuman beings (it is unknown if they were normal people, aliens or actual gods, but it's legend so its purposely vague) and they had children with mortals percy jackson style. In modern day, some sort of event (I dont know what at this point) begins triggering powers in a few of the ancestors, hearing voices of their respective god as well as inheriting their power. I feel this would be a good way to introduce an X-Men like origin that's not just 'They were born with powers'.

My series, Triad, has a Chinese man inheriting the powers of the Jade Emperor, a Taoist god. I saw your conversation with Andrew and I think that would be a great to have her as a decendant of Hades that triggers her powers. I think it makes the story ritcher without all the mumbo-jumbo, as well as a source for heroes/villains without explanation. Of course I think we should stay away from too many Roman/Greek/Norse gods since comics has done that a lot, but other mythologies would be cool to explore while also creating a lot of multicultural characters.

Let me know what you think,

Liam
