Former marine from Nevada gets a comic published
KOLO-8 gives a report on a former marine who'd served in Afghanistan, who's now publishing a GN titled Galaxy of Chaos:
When what's told about the new comic is that vague, it's one more reason not to have high hopes this'll be a product that offers a meat-and-potatoes view, metaphorically or otherwise, of a serious issue. It sounds too much like Mr. Lightsy's not willing to make a difference between belief systems, not even when it comes to MLK vs. MX, or even Prof. Xavier and Magneto. So we can't be certain Galaxy of Chaos will be the straightforward masterpiece some surely wish it could be.
“This has been a dream come true,” said Branden Lightsy, the author of Galaxy of Chaos. A dream that started as an outlet while Lightsy was serving the country as a Marine in Afghanistan. “We get hit with a rocket attack. The computer gets damaged or whatever. Wherever I left my computer that day… gone.”It would be quite interesting to know if this guy take an objective view to how Afghanistan was ruined by Islamic dominance, and whether he's got the courage to confront the Religion of Peace's hostility against unbelievers. That's not the vibe I'm getting from so far from this report. What does he mean by "fighting among ourselves"? Wasn't the military fighting al Qaeda and the Taliban? All of which has since gone to pot in Afghanistan after Biden's catastrophous withdrawal. I wonder if Mr. Lightsy's willing to make any points about that? And what does he mean by "those who're different"? Doesn't it matter the Taliban's now once again oppressing women in Afghanistan?
Following the rocket attack, he decided to draw his thoughts in a notebook. “Because if I draw it, at least I can hold on to it. So, I drew the book out in comic form. Doodling in class.” Lightsy was initially deployed as a cook, but his role quickly changed to combat.
While serving his country, he acknowledges how comics can be used to create a narrative or define global politics. “A lot of comics provide political commentary and social justice commentary and stuff like that. Like the correlation between Malcolm X And Magneto and Professor Xavier and Martin Luther King,” added Lightsy.
Issue 1, which is part of a multiple-part series, focuses on unity while questioning animosity towards those who are different. “Why are we fighting amongst ourselves? Using little petty skin-deep differences as causes to have animosity toward each other or pre-judgments towards each other. Why do we do all of that, when we can just grow as people?”
