Broken Money

Money woes (line 6), as explored in art for RounHeah' A Novel Comic © Copyright 2011

"Toxicity is the degree to which a substance can damage an organism."

The substance being in this case the so called "ideal" value of money, which has increased tenfold given the growth of intellectual and virtual property. Whereas the organism relates to..well, the human organism as it stands. Both, wholly.

Although the ramifications of monetary downfall come later in the series, the initial onset of woes due to can be seen scrawled graffiti style across the landscape in some of the art created for the series. Also, I've modified religious, social, sexual and other symbols to reflect a somewhat ontological movements and adjustments, which too are inscribed in vandal form upon structures as a sign of anarchic, progressive and destructive developments.

The Making of a Moniker...that which befits a King

It dawned upon me that I'd possibly yet to divulge as to what lead to the development of the characters names in RounHeah'. While all names are some derivative of sorts referencing their native lands including a prideful nod to African-American naming practices, the overuling contribution is that of the Roar!

Case in point.
Morawk-Marawk-MOROC!

 

Coming Soon! Book Two

After Morawk, the King of Kings, telling of what was discovered in The Cavern in Jordhan, the others dispersed slowly, their large maned heads heavy, and hung low. Until now, it never called upon them to ponder much about their being. Existentialism was far off, see, there-over the mountain. In fact, their life was so obviously immediate that it, life itself, was the only true ruling fact above all others. Most thought was delegated to ensuring ones lineage and protecting his pride and territory. Otherwise, all other acts of brooding went into eating...and mating.

But alas, these thoughts too were soon to be pushed aside as news of the bigeyed made its way throughout their still growing brains. From the temporal lobe it went, ricocheting off the frontal, boing-boing throughout the cerebral until boom - impact!

Book Two, of RounHeah' A Novel Comic is on its way. Stay tuned too find out just what becomes of WanSiHa, Zenisan, Ruak, DeLonte and Morawk-Marawk-MOROC!, The King of Kings in the next installment.
