Reintroduction

Onlooker: So, whatcha drawing there?
Me: The main character for my graphic novel, Venge.
Onlooker: Oh, neat. What's it about?
Me: ... It's a long story...

* * *

I find it hard to summarise this story. I have had so many ideas incorporated into this that I find it difficult to hit the main points without leaving out the most interesting. I want to tell the world my idea but I want it to be told in this format I have chosen (graphic novel). Possibly after it's completion I would like to see it branch into multiple mediums. Books, TV, Movies and even offshoots based upon the secondary characters.

So how to explain it whilst still retaining secrecy and without sounding dismissively rude? I want anyone who is genuinely interested to know the whole story... but it's a long one. The snippets I have written here have provided some of the details but it may seem difficult to chew through commentary in between.

What follows will be my attempt to provide a short version, an outline, and a long version.

Short Version

Venge fell in love with the physical embodiment of Death. Now he kills bad people for a chance to see her again.

Outline

  • God created the Earth

  • God created his mate, Wogod

  • Wogod changed her name to Lilith

  • God and Lilith created Man and Woman

  • God uncreated Lilith

  • Lilith recreated and fought with God

  • God and Lilth created the Ungod

  • Reality became unbalanced

  • Ungod created balance by imposing limits on humanity, God, and Lilith

  • Ungod became the forces of Karma, Death, and Judgement

  • Charon dies and is judged by Ungod

  • Ungod mandates that it, God, and Lilith live lives as humans

  • Ungod becomes embodied as Camelia Roper

  • Camelia falls in love with Darren Duvoss

  • Camelia's 'Death' persona leaks through to her mortal form

  • Camelia dies during a death experiment in which Darren is held responsible

  • Darren is deemed mentally unstable and unable to stand trial

  • Darren kills himself while institutionalised

  • Ungod stops Darren from dying and gives him the powers of a Reaper

  • Darren becomes possessed by the spirits of vengeful souls

  • Darren assumes the name Venge and becomes the Ungod's Angel of Vengeance

  • Venge can see spirits, ghosts, God, Lilith, Ungod and into a person's soul, thus allowing him to see the Ungod when it comes to claim a soul

  • Venge finds himself confronting the Undead, Clergy from various religions, and himself

  • Venge's greatest enemy proves to be Rasputin who was able to avert death by removing his soul from his body and possessing another.

  • Amongst his adversaries are the souls trapped in his head, the jealous Charon, a Necromancer, a man scientist, a cult of Vampires, Werewolves, Ghosts, a local law enforcement supernatural task force, Religious orders, God's Angels, Lilith's Daemons, Lilith herself, self doubt, and his own mortality
