Courage isn’t only facing a bad guy, but it can be the courage to express ourselves.

How do you realize what you want to frame each larger story around?įontana: Part of that was inspired by a time when I was at a signing and a girl had made a drawing for me, but then didn’t want to give it to me because it “wasn’t good enough.” For some of us, it takes a superhero amount of courage to share our art and our creativity with the world. We see each person struggle (or excel) in the creative process and I realized how these stories are really teaching young readers to learn to be creative in their own way without needing anyone else style. TMS: That ties into the great aspect of Out of the Bottle which has all the characters making their own comics and learning how to come up with their own stories.
