I just had an idea for a new comic, which to me seems rather interesting, but I'm not sure if it would actually be so! If I could get some criticisms on the short little synopsis I've written, that'd be great. Just a note - I don't want criticisms on the way I've written it, but rather on the idea of the plot. Here goes: Comments?
Interesting concept- although I'm not sure of its originality... being less than well read I cannot credibly vouch for that one way or another. If the quoted passage is a narrative I'd suggest that holding people's interest might be easier if you told them things less and led them to draw their own conclusions more- engaging their minds in the midst of the plot instead of merely observing from the outside. For example, "the planet has become horribly overpopulated" can become "the concept of neighbor has crossed the threshold of annoyance into the land of warehoused humanity. Old euphemisms like "living arrangements" have long been discarded in favor of "human storage". The shortage of facilities has inspired those in the Population Ministry arm of the World Protectorate to designate classes of surplus human resource to be liquidated." Just a thought...
