Statement

My Capstone is a comic that follows Mika, an adventurous high schooler, and her experiences as she becomes the devil’s assistant. The story explores myths regarding the afterlife and concepts of morality in a playful manner. I aimed to convey a tone of whimsy and fun throughout the comic, so the reader can enjoy Mika’s adventures alongside her. I plan to post my work as a webcomic, allowing readers to continue following the story online. I hope you enjoy following Mika and her friends' journey as much as I love creating it.
