why don't you wait and see with the rest of us? <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"> as far as I can tell it is a romance/coming of age theme (read the rest of the messageboard before you post a question, often the answers are there)

Its a tranvestite tale of an alien who pretends to be a little girl to seduce younger men...

Hey Zacc,I've talked with quite a few people and several have asked me about the "focus" of Makeshift Miracle.As Izanobu said, I don't want to give things away too soon. There's a lot of little twists and turns to the story that could be spoiled if I say too much here.However, I can say this... I've personally described Makeshift Miracle as a Coming Of Age/Romantic-Comedy. Any other description has been other people's interpretations of the events so far. I don't want to tell a typical story and even though it's cliche so far, it'll take some twists that I hope will genuinely surprise people. Later on, the first bunch of pages will take on a different meaning, when certain things are revealed.It's a slow brew that I hope people can be patient for...

it's good! That's what it is....be glad the man has a focus...as for me and my strip? i did not- I can openly say...but- then again the success of ym strip is a fluke in and of itself...i prefer to think of it as the exception that proves the rule...z will do his best to tell the best story he can...the joy of the web is, it's easier on our nerves for the wait...it's right there!-glych------------------

oh, sorry...I didn't know the question was already posted before. I was in a hurry,you see...okay,so let me get this straght. the theme is something like a romance comic,right? I saw some forum topics mentioning about aliens in a girl disguise planning for world domination. heck,the story's not like what they say is it?

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>It is a romantic comedy, but there's more to it then that. I don't want people to think that it's a Harlequin Romance Novel or anything like that. There's a romantic story, but lots of other parts to it as well. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>I don't want to give anything away, but suffice to say that world domination is not a part of it.Iris' true purpose and identity will be revealed over the course of the story. A lot of people are assuming that she's an alien because she crashed from the sky. Whether or not this is true... well, you'll just have to wait and see. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">
