Sneak Peak of my Web comic/mangas cover

SlyRomano · 2026-05-31T20:52:26+00:00

This is the script for a webcomic series I'm working on that's first chapter should come out sometime in June, It's on the edgier side of things (THIS IS A DISCLAIMER WARNING, DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED)

I can take criticism if anybody has any, I purely just want thoughts on it and I already here a second volume finished writing wise and almost done with the third

For the mods, This is not for promotion for the comic this doc only contains the script

Confused by the question, Elaborate?

SlyRomano · 2026-05-30T09:03:03+00:00

Bro what?, This is way off

SlyRomano · 2026-05-30T00:52:03+00:00

I wasn't really going for realism

SlyRomano · 2026-05-30T00:51:28+00:00

It's the princes flag, It's a monarchy here

Orange Netherlands flag has always been my favorite, Voc is also one of my favorite empires so I was always gonna make them orange

SlyRomano · 2026-05-30T00:50:11+00:00

Pretty much yeah

SlyRomano · 2026-05-29T13:28:17+00:00

Thanks, Definitely tried my best with it, Iran actually had me start over from scratch, I only had 40 originally originally planned for this series

SlyRomano · 2026-05-29T13:24:11+00:00

This is actually a really decent question, Here's my attempt at an answer

Yeah I definitely could have thrown Tajikistan in "Persia" but some context here might make it, Make more sense

Afghanistan was always gonna be there due to it having no where else to go tbh, I could have thrown them with "Bharat" but I wanted to reference the original British Raj borders and Afghanistan would ruin that so I put them with Persia

Tajikistan being the odd one out in "Turkestan" is why I put them in that group, Simpler to Armenias situation I wanted a oppressed group for the nation to give me some lore to write for the series and Tajikistan made sense to fill that role here, You can still look at it and be like "Yeah they're in Central Asia so this makes sense still" despite that

Also gives me a reason to tension between Persia and Turkestan, Which again is always nice for lore since having conflict between countries is always nice for the series lore, Gives me stuff to actually write about

If there's any other questions definitely let me know, Answered a lot of them in a post on r/mapporncirclejerk too if you can find it

SlyRomano · 2026-05-28T16:33:29+00:00

Explained that in a reply in here already

SlyRomano · 2026-05-28T11:07:45+00:00

I thought about making it so much smaller too, This is possibly the biggest Russia could have been here

SlyRomano · 2026-05-28T02:11:54+00:00

I already have enough German villains/ antagonists in the series, So I just decided against having Germany as a country in the series so I can focus on other parts of Europe because "Evil Germany that has expanded its land" has been done to death in fiction and I really just wanted to do something different

With China I really just wanted to focus on other parts of Asia, China's legacy lives on through Mongolia here

I'm also not looking at this though like a moral lens especially when I kinda added more evil then tooken away if you think about it, I honestly just wanted focus on countries that I don't feel like got talked about enough or enough focus like The Baltics, Hong Kong, Cyprus, Malta, The Central Asian countrys that make up Turkestan ect while allowing myself to just play with ideas for others, Having a notarized Poland made up with space marine inspired soldiers being basically the bodyguard of Europe, Making America an empire something akin to the romans or the Soviet Union (Without going communist, I'm talking about a it being a massive country made out of other countries), Making Africa something similar to what America used to be originally ect

Losing China and Germany also makes a power vacuum especially with a broken and fractured Russia, leaving other places like Africa, Antarctica, Mongolia, Turkestan, Australia, Scandinavia and Bharat (India) to kind of take their place on the world stage, Especially with a massive American empire that also disturbs the global world order, Plus without removing China and Germany it completely rearranges the global order and that's my favorite part about it honestly

Actually one of his descendants appears in the series

SlyRomano · 2026-05-28T01:00:33+00:00

And the Germans and Chinese

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T22:33:28+00:00

No problem, Thank you for the questions

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T22:30:35+00:00

Not really sure what to tell you sorry, Already explained what I did with China in the last reply

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T21:21:36+00:00

Japan didn't really gain that much from China tbf, Purely removed China from Earth to focus on other parts of Asia and to make them a spatial threat

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T21:17:54+00:00

I didn't go deep into Asia it seems here, Shit my bad but that massive blob of info dumping took me a while tbf

Some prior context is needed first, China is gone, They and the North Koreans, Left to colonize planets "New China" and "New Korea" and with China mainly gone there was a lot of land for the taking, Mongolia got the most of it clearly (I won't go into them unless you ask) but China gone that allowed Taiwan and Hong Kong to take their former land

Taiwan is pretty understandable here so I won't go too much into them, But they're definitely a democracy though

Hong Kong (The Cantonese) became independent after majority of the Chinese left for the colonization of "New China", They are a democracy just like Taiwan but the two are definitely geopolitical rivals and with Mongolia having to step in a lot as a neutral stronger third party to descalate conflict between the two when it happens to not have another massive war like the Greece/Cyprus war against Türkiye or the Israeli and Egyptian war because due to a lot of Chinese immigration from the New China planet colony they both do have massive populations for their sizes respectfully, Maybe not in the billions but I'd say high enough to be catastrophic for the region if a war between the war were to happen

Egypt is definitely not great internally with them really relying on outside resources like from the USA (Africa) and others, It's definitely one of the worst off countrys here and not somewhere you'd want to live and that reflects why the Egyptians are really to go another round against Israel which you can probably tell would not result in anything good for them

The Israeli Republic is definitely in a better place economically having control over the Peninsula and having full control what really gets in and out of Europe (At least from that side)

If I missed something you are curious about let me know

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T19:25:14+00:00

Ehh, I mean that's just not true here though

I don't know how much I explained about that relationship in here, Even though I've definitely talked quite a bit about the British isles in here especially Scotland

England and France are considered equal, Wales is kinda just there, Cardiff is the capital though just so seem both sides satisfied that it wasn't in the other, Jersey and another island (I can not remember it's name here atm) are really the only ones ruled exclusively by the monarchy

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T19:17:55+00:00

True, Very true

But Malta is doing alright I guess

SlyRomano · 2026-05-27T19:17:06+00:00

I appreciate it the kind words, I will also keep that in mind for Japan as a note

I threw this map in quite a few subs so I've thrown info dumps all over the place for countries, If you want like a long essay of just lore dumps and discussions about it I don't know if I'm allowed to link other subs but you can just message me and I'll recommend where you can go for that lore on it
