Kill Your Heroes

"Kill Your Heroes" explores the costs of becoming a hero, and what it means to remain one - even when you are past your prime and a new generation wants to take your place.

This story picks up both before, and after, "A Hero's Death," an earlier short story I wrote that is also available on Wattpad. The original short story featured a male hero, but in adapting the "A Hero's Death" to a Kickstarter funded graphic novel, the hero became a woman. Although the genders of the hero in "A Hero's Death" and "Kill Your Heroes" are different, thematically they work with the same character and many of the same issues.

The artwork is by legendary comics artist Mark Texeira. If you'd like to learn more about the graphic novel, you can visit HeroKickstarter.com.
