Mike

This here is Mike. He's a character in a graphic novel/storyline I've been developing for about five years. I keep retooling the characters again and again, and the story is still not yet nailed down. It's my baby, so I want to get it right. The story's main moral dilemma is the idea of revenge, and whether it really is worth it. I don't think it is, and I've seen it a lot lately in movies and TV showing it as a positive goal. I don't like that.

Mike is a guardian escort to the main character, and ends up being somewhat of a traitor. His intentions are good, but the right thing to do isn't always clear to him, as it often is so with all of us.
