Mi Hermana Loca

For my thesis, I have created the first chapter of a new sci-fi comic book, Mi Hermana Loca. The story is about what it’s like to have a sibling and the naive thoughts of freedom for a young 10-year-old girl. This story revolves around the concept of family, and the importance of sticking together and that freedom does not mean to be alone. The idea of siblings staying together, even beyond space, takes the two main characters spiraling through the galaxy when aliens crash to earth and need a way back home.
