About The Mannamong – Volume 1:
The Mannamong has been well received by webcomic fans and nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Webcomic in 2023. Now, I am launching the series as middle-grade fantasy graphic novels.
Legends spoke of spirits created by Mother Nature called the mannamong, made to serve and protect humanity and maintain balance in the world. Today, they have been long forgotten until one little girl becomes entangled in their affairs because of one rogue spirit. Now, through a tale of secrets and truths, vengeance and forgiveness, and tragedies and restoration, these two souls may change the direction of the natural order for both mortals and spirits of nature.
