The Sphere of Memories

Starlight Amazons is a retro-futurist space opera set in a universe where beauty, order and progress have been carefully engineered, and quietly broken.

The story opens with Lyra, a young woman living with a worsening illness that no system seems willing, or able, to truly treat. As her condition deteriorates, Kyra, a disciplined and battle-hardened leader, keeps their crew together while searching for answers that medicine, politics and technology all refuse to provide.

Their journey carries them across exploited worlds, abandoned marvels and vast machines built to stabilise civilisation whatever the cost. What they uncover is not a single villain or failure, but a universe that has learned to manage suffering instead of preventing it, and calls that balance.

Blending pulp science fiction adventure, Victorian brass futurism and elemental mythology, Starlight Amazons is an adult graphic novel, one that embraces intimacy, bodies, power and vulnerability as part of its world, not something hidden from it and asks what happens when a body in pain becomes impossible to ignore.

The Why & How?

Sketches evolve with colour and detail. The story is mostly written; locations and scenes are planned. Using Clip Studio I can place all the text in each page and workout frames for the images, which images have priority over others, what moment need focus.

The Who?

A Story Needs characters, these have taken some time to develop, i created characters BEFORE the story, giving them roles on the ship, then as i wrote i know who would be doing what, and then that brought on new characters as I went, some more central, some just one-scene side characters, but who knows, in the future their roles may be bigger, I wanted the amazons to be a big team, just not all of them are front of stage for this story.
