Started in July 30th 2017, The "Insomniac" Project is a webseries about 6 unlikely friends having their lives abruptly changed forever, from alternate universes to inter-dimensional beings out to destroy The Multiverse, giving them the greatest responsibility of their lives..unfortunately.
Insomniac revolves around six unfortunate teens. Az, the born leader with an ego problem affecting his leadership. Syuq, the naive passionate vlogger with a camera always ready to nab that content gold. Kai, the outcast always behind on things (like rent). Mika, the heavy who has everyone's back with a compelling laziness. El, the outgoing one whose always looking at the bright side and Mirus, a gifted but developing individual powerful enough to traverse the multiverse with the palm of his hand. Follow their journey as they come across the wonders and horrors of infinity facing against great threats to the Multiverse. A celestial Titan capable of creating, manipulating and destroying worlds, The Star of Darkness, and a corrupted yet all-powerful mortal, Glitch.
Will they succeed? Will they fail?
The answer varies in this vast world of possibilities.
What started as a short mini comic series in school grew bigger and bigger to becoming the passionate new story about the endless possibilities of the Multiverse and what dangers lurk in the vast infinite void. The concrete story and idea came about in 2018 when a young Azzaky Aris and Zulsyuqree Razali crossed paths. From there, they worked on Insomniac's villains, lore, designs and even the first draft of the Pilot script together before untimely leaving the project to dust in 2019 after the reveal of it's second poster, the release date of a indefinite timeframe along a indefinite hiatus as the two parted ways to work on their own projects and studies.
Faithfully, in 2022, the idea and spark of the project reemerged. Leading us to where we are today which a whole new poster, new designs, new logo and overall new direction for the series. The story and characters are overall unchanged but rather enhanced to be more unique with the mission to making Insomniac feel like it's own entity rather than "just another Multiverse story like Rick and Morty and Marvel"
Zulsyuqree has stepped down as co-director since to pursue his own projects.
His return to Insomniac is unknown.
Originally this was planned to be a comic but gradually developed to be more inclined as a webtoon on YouTube, similar to shows like Eddsworld, sparking the development and completion of the first draft of a Pilot Episode in 2018.
Now, the original first draft is instead being rewritten as we experiment and set the stage for our story.
As we continue to develop our tale, we hope to expand our team to create an ever expanding world filled with detailed characters and realities fans can find join in any reality and any variant they choose.
