Can’t sleep so I’m doing some light comic reading for research purposes. 

I’ve been trying to get into the headspace to write my own Marvel alternate universe Cindy Moon. I will likely have to utilize an online writers room. I need writers with more comic and creative writing experiences. I have some abstract concepts and writing prompts and that should be enough. My writers will show up when they’re ready and inspired. 

I say light reading just to get a feel of stuff but because im writing something completely different and during a time period no one knows much about. For those that aren’t comic book lovers; someone had told me I remind them of Cindy Moon/ Silk from Marvel Universe. 

I knew only a bit of her story and it’s not that I love her; but I feel like I am her. She’s not a big or popular character but she is a massive recluse and Asian. She’s Peter Parker’s classmate and she was bitten by the same radioactive spider so she is just as powerful as he is and there’s rumors that she is actually more powerful than Peter Parker. She became a recluse for 10 years. The writing is supposed to be during the 10 years she spent indoors in the bunker so there is a lot of potential and stories we can create. 

I know She worked at a news station. 

I want my version to touch base on serious topics such as mental health and world issues, just like how comics back in the day weren’t afraid to touch subjects like drxgs, racism and other worldly issues. I want it to raise awareness and make real impact with people worldwide who need the inspiration, not just first world people who can afford to read comics safely at home. 

Even though, I have a bunch of her comics, I purposely avoided reading a large part of her story because I didn’t want it to influence me and I wanted to see later on if I’m anything like her or her story. I’m starting to mellow out so it’s time for me to start reading her comics. 

I don’t know if Marvel will go for it because she’s not supposed to be an attractive character and in my story she moonlights as a cam girl working remotely from home. Perhaps we can start her off as a streamer and years later she evolves to a sex worker. Marvel does have adult writing/themes for characters like Deadpool and Venus and I hope they learn to love my Cindy Moon. 

I’m kind of an outlier as a person being a radical activist, humanitarian aid and content creator. I’m hoping trying my hand at creative writing for fantasy/ sci-fi/ comic genres will soften my image and make me more relatable/loveable for mainstream people. Then I can make an even bigger difference! 

She already has several books by different artists and authors. I’m going to read a couple and see what the limits are even though I know the limit should only be the sky and our imagination. We’ll take it one step at a time! It’s supposed to be fun. ☺️
