The Story that Launched a Series...

The Distant Eye began as a simple manga with the goal of incorporating containing complex ideas into simple comic book style.  Initially more graphics than text, the concept morphed into a novel tailored for young readers that subtly combined introductions to philosophical concepts such as objectivist epistemology and existentialism, intertwined with literary devices, such as deus ex machina, metaphysics, and science to form the foundation that would support a story stretching over serial iterations - an open and timeless construct within which to build a story.
