ABOUT "ORION"

STATUS: INDEFINITE HIATUS

The first 24-page issue of "Orion" was originally completed as my senior thesis project in college. I am not currently working on continuing this comic, and I have no plans to continue it at the moment. The story of "Orion" is not finished, so I may return and finish it at an undetermined point in the future, but at the current time, no new content is being made.

About the Comic

The character and story of "Orion" was originally conceived as a superhero comic for my college thesis project. The story centers around Scott Min, an ex-superhero who is making a new life for himself, when out of the blue his old superhero teammate re-enters his life and tries to recruit him back into superheroics. I wanted to make a story that dealt with themes of mental health, complicated interpersonal relationships, and exploring the superhero genre.
