Elysia - Chapter 1: Full-Color Illustrated Graphic Novel
Chapter 1
A breathtaking YA fantasy graphic novel that blends the divine and the futuristic — a coming-of-age story set amidst a brewing celestial war between angels and fallen angels. Thrust into a story where people's guardian angels live alongside them day-to-day.
When Elysia comes of age, her wings start to grow, throwing into question her entire existence - and the past of her mother. Her father, a brilliant scientist, has created technology to allow these half-human/half-angel (Anxo) children to thrive. He is torn by professional duty and that of his familial bond with his daughter, to make the sacrifices he needs to in order to see Elysia, and her friends, survive.
Beautifully illustrated with over 100 full-colour pages, Elysia combines the emotional depth of Sandman, the scope of Saga, and the soul-searching intensity of Fullmetal Alchemist. It’s a fantasy graphic novel with sci-fi elements, where friendship and betrayal, hope and despair, collide in a visually stunning tale of identity, rebellion, and redemption.
Perfect for fans of fantasy, mythic storytelling, and character-driven adventures, Elysia invites you to step beyond heaven and hell — into a world where being an angel comes with such responsibility and burden all at once. For some, angels would be symbols of healers, guides, reminders that good still exists. For others, they’d be a threat — beings whose idea of justice isn’t human, whose wars could scorch the sky.
It's up to Elysia to navigate and make sense of this new world she has thrust into. How can you feel protected when beings of impossible power walk among you?
