In 1986, an exploratory research expedition into the High Himalayas was on its way up Mount Makalu.
In the midst of a harsh storm, the young lady slipped and fell over the side of a cliff!
But fortunately, a huge, dark blue furry creature leapt out of the night, and saved her inches from an icy death.
As she slowly came to her senses, the lady looked into the deep eyes of this huge creature. The creature gazed back into her beautiful eyes.
Yay! Finally, all 5 panel are finito! In the can!
So, without further ado, Here’s…

Extra Panel-
I would like to apply a style to this as well, mostly because the story seems incomplete without it; the main result. To be honest, all of these are pretty important, story-wise.
Panel the First:
So the expedition is almost to the top! They’re struggling on, facing the Nepal winter’s fury, clinging desperately to life, hoping to find a shelter for the night. The Northern Lights dance and play in the night sky.
Panel After One:
Suddenly, the small Lady slips on a rock and falls, hurling right off a bare cliff!
(By the way, sorry for the late update. My brother and I had this awful stomach thing on Tuesday and Wednesday.)
The Word(s): Bravery / Cowardice.
Research for B & W: Ansel Adams, one of America’s greatest photographers of the West. Seriously, I could go on and on about the guy. Beautiful photos of our amazing Western Frontier, with breathtaking atmosphere and amazing graphic design.
Research for Pop Art: Andy Warhol. Looking at his weird, washed-out primary colors always reminds me of the ’80’s. And childhood, in a way. Therefore when the lady falls off the cliff, her mind instantly flashes to a primeval seat of thought.
The story of Makalu’s orgin.
It started with a small climbing expedition on Mount MKII, one of the highest mountains in the Himalayan range. On the way, a small woman fell down a cliff, and was caught in the arms of a humung0us furry creature- The Abominable Snow Man! But with one look into each other’s eyes, they headed off to his cave for shelter from the night’s storm. After a night of passion, she headed back home, and nine months later, gave birth to our little blue hero.

Makalu
Makalu is the son of the Abominable Snowman and a Nepalese mountain climber, who happens to be a person of less stature. He is currently 25, and lives a quiet life in central Ohio with his two roommates, Chuck Van McWheeler and Lila Sanders. He rarely talks about his earlier years, and presumably prefers a quiet life; he spends lots of time on the Internet, though whether he is a hacker or a troll of any kind is unknown. He is living under the American government’s radar as well; he would rather not start a media frenzy focused on his convoluted origin. He is usually soft-spoken, very intelligent, and quite nerdy. He is currently taking night school classes online. He has indicated that he does have a girlfriend, though the only witnesses are his roommates, who describe her as some sort of freakish, alien like furry bird reptile-like creature with tentacles and beaks. Presumably she is also living under the radar, and is referred to by Makalu as “Snoogy-Woogy Babboo”.
Makalu is a short man with a short coat of light blue fur. He has mentioned that most of his body’s by-products are also blue, including spit, snot, and feces.
