Chapters
STARBOOB is written like any other traditional American comic series, issue to issue. Each issue is expected to be between 20-25 pages long. But because we're not intending to print each single issue, we will refer to each issue as a CHAPTER.
The story has been written many, many chapters ahead so I'll placing some space holders for those chapters after the published ones. But don't worry, NO SPOILERS AHEAD.
01: Starboob, the Origin
Teresa Jean Cervantez was already having a bad day when it became worse: a strange rock fell from the sky striking her in the breast and charring her skin from head to toe. Upon awakening a few days later she discovered her skin had healed flawlessly, and soon, with her best friend she discovers she can fly and can lift the heaviest of objects with ease.
After settling some old scores she decides to go public with an official persona, but finds that she already went viral with another name!
