This is a character design for a Phantom of the Opera comic I'm planning to do.

I have thought of a 'Erik travels to our present' story (yes, you read well xD), but with no Mary-Sue thank you. I need him to be very dark and agressive, not a charming man at all, but appealing in a sinister way (it won't be based on the movie, the book or the musical exactly, it will be a personal mix).

Mmm... so I don't think I quite like this design, he looks too soft (specially the one on the right), too handsome, too... ¿Gerard Butler? xD I want him to look mean and not trustworthy. Maybe it's the eyes... His eyes are too beautiful, that's it. Or maybe it's just my paranoia.

In my story he would eventually come to live in some poor immigrant/marginal neighbourhood from any big city of Europe, where he's not frown upon because of his eccentricity, where everyone minds their own business. He would NEVER become a normal member of our society, not because he couldn't, but because he wouldn't want to.

This comic, if ever to be finished, is for you, DeviantArt people. So...What would you like to see in a POTO comic with Erik in our present? Romance? Fluff? Accion? Mystery? Supernatural? He adjusting or not adjusting at all? Parody? (for example Erik using the subway is quite a funny image lol) Would you like him living alone? with a family? in a flat? in a house? with a woman? with a prostitute? xD To be rich and succesful? Please feel free to make sugestions.

Not to be a smart-ass or anything but you should NEVER ask your audience what kind of story they would like to see. Just tell the story you want to tell and you'll see if people like it or not.

Just sayin'...

Well I'm pretty interested in what people wants to read, so I asked :) Don't worry, the story was already developing in my mind, I didn't ask from zero. As a matter of fact I think it's VERY useful to seek advice. You know, very good ideas come out when speaking about a project to a lot of different people (sometimes mixing them you have a brilliant idea). Someone may know something interesting you do not. Rest assured, I would never force myself to work in something I don't quite like just because that's what people wants to read xD

Thanks for speaking your mind :thumbsup:

Yeah, I just tend to agree with what Alan Moore says: "You should never give the audience what they want, because the audience don't know what they want...that's why they are the audience. The writer's job is to give their audience what they need, which is different from what they want."

Wise words from the coolest hobo on the planet.

I'd think it would be good as a parody/supernatural mix. That would be a really fun read, especiallly with your wonderful art.
