BioPolyglot & Spleen is another Goth comic.
Two kids, who dress in a lot of black (with splashes of purple and red and *gasp* white), in Victorian clothing and fishnet and face paint - with imaginations that border upon the creation of reality.
They go out into the world and talk to people, find adventure, learn something about themselves. They begin to realize that there is so much more to the world than what they had been taught, and as much as their desirous imaginations demanded and dreamed.
They have friends with names like Norbert Phinneas (named after the Knickerbocker School writer N.P. Willis) and Franston (who is, happily, named after nobody).
Polyglot has moments of being a computer technician. Spleen works in her Uncle Grumble’s bakery.
Wait a moment...reconsidering, this doesn’t sound like a Goth comic at all. Where is all the angst and gnurl? The tower and the gor(e)y? (Where is all of the merchandise without even having a story yet told?)
Uh...Spleen likes to bake cookies in the shape of bats. For every holiday. Green bats in March. Red bats in February. Of course, orange bats for Halloween.
Polyglot helps people understand the un-understandable world of computers. He isn’t sarcastic about it either. You may even find him on the other end of your frantic call for help.
They begin to see that all of their actions, chance encounters, no-such-thing-as-coincidences, are leading toward...that which they cannot (quite yet) put into words...and if I did, would give away the story.
Suffice that the tale is one of evolution come quick...of tasty desserts...of music...of lyric...of beautiful clothing...of the comings and goings of people...of stories that seek truths and truths that seek what comes after...of stories that will extend over the life of the comic as opposed to small tales that expire and never return.
Thus, in the midst and betwixt of the daily and the divine, the darkness of the cloth and the lightness of an actual smile, the wings of dragons and bats and angels give breeze and set in motion a series of events that may or may not be believable to any other than Polyglot & Spleen. To them, however, there is no doubt that these happenstances are real. And that belief, as with any good experience, is all that is necessary for vision to shift, knowledge to flow, and the world to change in ways you will have to read to see.
