Miles and Amy are two children from opposite sides of a recent conflict who unwillingly embark on a journey to discover the reason for their shared power and how it connects to the slowly fading kingdoms they hail from.
With aid from a noble historian and her bodyguard, they journey to unlock the past, secrets, and power of the ancient Citadels and restore the world to it's past glory. Or, as some say, cause its further destruction.
This is the original concept chapter of Citadel that was my MFA thesis. I drew this between 2009 and 2010. While the story was later re-worked several times for the new Chapter 1, this remains an important piece of Citadel's creation story and a reminder of where it all started for me.
As originally published, this comic was to be read on one side of the book, then turned over to read the other half. They stories meet in the middle spread. Enjoy this peek back in time!
