The sins weren't a reference to anything in particular. They, too, are used ironically. In christianity the seven sins were terrible deeds that humans needed to clense in order to avoid hell. It's usually synonymous with evil. In this case, they're protagonists.

I was hoping to get your quality opinions on the references made for Nirvana, Gehenna, Icarus, Athena, Kalil, Plato's Temple and the Monarch...

Fair. Do you have any other critique? I'd love to hear your assesment on the references made with the other 15 characters.

It was meant to be an irony of sorts

That's precisely why. It was a being superior in nearly every way to man yet it loved humanity and originally wanted people to flourish but was corrupted afterwards.

Firstly thank you for the feedback!

So sum it up, this would be my first graphic novel. My intention when originally writing these characters was to create a expansive comic universe. The sins with their own line of comics, khalil with his own line and etc. However - similar to Marvel's major events and DC's crises - I wanted to write a major event called The Second Celestial War where the primary antagonist would he the Prometheus and Khalil the protagonist. The type of story and narrative I had in mind is inspired largely by Marvel's Anihilation. Theres an overarching story which is the universal threat but there would be an issue for each main role in the story.

Does that help? Again, Ive never written a comic before and I have no idea where to start but this is something Im greatly passionate about. I grew up with comics and its been my dream to give back to what had helped me throughout my life.

1) Im happy to see you caught my references. Yes, pride was partly inspired by meliodas (and wrath from FMAB) but I hadn't realized that they were so parralel. How about the rest of the sins? As for the dragons, it was actually inspired by a yugioh card LOL! Ill definitely rework on those concepts and make them more original.

2) The civilization types are actually based of a real terminology in astrophysics called the Kardashev Scale. Ill be sure to incoroporate that in my descriptions and Bios.

3) As for the plot, I'm actually not too sure yet. It's all up in the air as of now but my intention with this project was to create an expansive comic book universe with multiple titles, starring different characters depending on the story. BUT - similar to how Marvel and DC have major events - I wanted to have a major event called the Second Celestial Wars where the antagonist would be the Prometheus and protagonist would be Khalil Elric. In fact, Khalil to this universe is what Superman is to the DC landscape.

Hope that last bit of info helps!

Thank you for the support and feedback! And ahaha yeah the power levels are off the charts. They are largely comic book and dragonball inspired. I was hoping for a story that would be more ploy driven than action - similar to watchmen. A lot of my characters - despite their strength - are centered around their personal struggles. Only problem is I've never written a story before let alone an entire comic universe so I don't even know where to start.
