The story for my comic was influenced by a lot of things. Overall it's a vent comic so a majority of it are inspired by my childhood experiences, experiences of people I've met, personal thoughts and mental status. Although at the time it was also influenced by how tired I was of seeing LGBT+ stories always having romance, or being solely about the MC living the LGBT+ experience. As well as how misinformed abuse and mental health tend to be in fiction, either demonizing the mentally ill person, using it as a quarky personality trait. With abuse being used as a "romantic" feature, or having the abuser being comically over the top and obvious.
Other than those I guess my story is also inspired by more character-driven movies like One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and Cloudburst. I just really like stuff that explores characters on a more intimate level, at least when it comes to interpersonal themes like what I chose to tackle in my comic.
Also I just really like sad stuff.
Rated R/17+ and contains heavy themes, read at your own discretion.
