MU Comics came to me at a time when I thought I didn’t belong, a time when I felt like no one could possibly understand what I was going through. I felt alone. I was too embarrassed to let people know what was happening to me, ashamed of things I had done, and scared of what people might think of me if I talked to them about it, so I kept it all inside and let it tear me apart. I’m not sure where I would be today if I hadn’t started using this creative outlet to document those feelings and the things that caused them. The characters, the stories, and everything that came with them gave me a way to talk about things without feeling bad about myself. 

I realized two things once I started being open and honest about my life:
1. Nothing that I talked about was anything to be embarrassed or ashamed of. We’re all human, and if there was something that happened in my life, there were thousands of people who had also gone through it.
2. Telling my story helped others to understand their own. It freed people to tell their own stories, knowing now that they weren’t alone and that there was nothing to be afraid of. 

Knowing that my story changed the corse of someone else’s and prevented them from entering that dark space sparked a fire and I haven’t stopped since. But my story isn’t worth anything until it’s shared with others.

Not all heroes are loved. Not all heroes are famous. Not all heroes even set out to be heroes at all. Just like everybody else, some heroes are just Misunderstood. 

These are my heroes and their stories, their struggles and how they became the saviors they never meant to be. They are also a reflection of me as a person. So many different personalities, so many misunderstood traits and all of them relate to my life whether directly or indirectly. 

My hope is that someone will come across these and realize, in at least one of them, that they aren’t alone… that someone in the world knows what they’re going through… that it’s completely normal to be abnormal.
