I'll dive into into my first. Momma's Boy was a high-school martial arts shonen comic idea I had that just.. Absolutely failed. The basic idea being that like the school itself was so totalitarian and like none of it managed to get out, there was like a hierarchy of students and the number of riot-like situations I ended up putting the kids through was absolutely ridiculous lol towards the end, it practically became a war between two schools and police got caught up in everything oops

I ended up planning way more than I could handle writing. Even then, I kinda lost interest due to my tastes changing and noticing how unrealistic everything was. It's that fun nonsense a teenager would've probably loved but like I said, it just wasn't for me anymore. I never got an artist on-board, and I never was interested in turning this into a novel. I wanted it to be an animated series originally before falling into webcomics, so.. Yeah, this never stood a chance lol I'm glad it fell through

If I rebooted it though? No high-school setting, cut the cast in half at least, smaller time frame of events.. Like 75% of the whole thing gets an overhaul. Only a handful of scenes would remain untouched plot-wise due to me still finding them the strongest points of my earliest writings.. But tbh, the characters and scenes are better off used in some other thing I work on in the future

Rest in RIP in pieces~
