Comparison between Gaia and Scarlet

from Gaia on (#6J0HM)

I plan to publish the first page of my new comic The Adventurous Scarlet Carolus and the Machine of Eternal Summer on 29 January. Just like Gaia, it will be a serious, long adventure story with some humorous scenes here and there. However, Scarlet will also differ from Gaia in several aspects. In order to align the expectations of the readers, here's a short overview of the main differences between the two comics:

GaiaScarlet
SettingScience fantasy with many elements from high fantasyDying Earth subgenre of science fantasy with limited fantasy elements
WorldYoung world in full bloomOld, dying world
ConflictMan vs. ManMan vs. Nature
SpeciesHumans, elves, dragons, impsHumans, anthropomorphic foxes and wolves
StoryComplex main story with several side plots, created ad-hoc during publicationStraightforward main story, entirely planned out in advance
DurationStory takes place over four monthsStory takes place over many years
CastEnsemble cast with several main characters and many supporting charactersStrong focus on the two main characters Scarlet and Tibor

Despite the differences, all Gaia readers should also enjoy Scarlet. My general approach to storytelling hasn't changed. Moreover, Scarlet Carolus will share several personality traits with Gaia's most popular character Viviana. Like Viviana, Scarlet is brave, smart and practical. I hope you'll like her, and Tibor, as much as I do.
