For Don't Be A Hero, it's a combination of many things for me. Nothing exactly, but I'm just a big fan of really over-the-top, humorous, action packed stories with strange and interesting premises, like:
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World
Gurren Lagann
Mega Man
Futurama
Rick and Morty
My comic doesn't follow their formulas exactly (closest it may be to is Scott Pilgrim), but just letting loose with a crazy, fun and memorable story is something I want to accomplish. I can still have good character development and an interesting overarching story underneath all of it, but what I really want to do is let my imagination loose, and let myself get all of the weird and crazy out of my system. Oh, and bright colours. I love myself lots of bright colours.
