When me and my friend Anthony came up with these characters, we had it in mind to turn this into a scifi epic of a graphic novel, but one thing I wanted to focus on was the characters. I like to joke about how people get into this belief about government bureaucrats being benevolent superhumans, but the same is true for protagonists in a story. People have to make a living, and they live. They're not always saving the galaxy or something else every single day.
There is going to be some crazy science-fictiony stuff down the road, though lol
