Meaning, I don’t world build just to world build - I world build for the sake of the story I’m trying to tell. KYLE: Well, for me, world-building has to come from narrative intent. MFR: What was the world-building process like? Did you push the creative envelope and then reigned it back in, or was there a specific creative vision to expand from? And writing has been a great way for me to tap into that more and more. Dreaming of what is possible, even if it seems impossible, is so incredibly important. My imagination is what kept me going as a child, as an athlete, and now as an adult. This book is also an opportunity for me to start doing something that I’ve always dreamed of - sharing my imagination with others. I see you, and I want you to know - you are special. Amongst systems that have failed their own. And creating Jaylen, for me, is also a way to talk to so many kids that are living in less-than-ideal environments. It’s a story that’s incredibly personal to me, both because of my background as well as the issues we’re looking to discuss and shine a light on. MFR: Lance, your Kickstarter statement is powerful. You can support the project here: THE TRAP Everyone’s saying that Jaylen is the Next Big Thing for the interstellar sport of the future: surfriding.
In THE TRAP, Jaylen Robinson is a rising sports star from a not-so-great part of the galaxy: Earth. The creative team on the 120-page sci-fi graphic novel includes Briggs, Higgins, artist and co-creator Danilo Beyruth, colorist by Tamra Bonvillain, lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, and book design by Sasha Head. Monkeys Fighting Robots caught up with former Chicago Bears linebacker Lance Briggs and writer Kyle Higgins to chat about their new Kickstarter project The Trap, football compared to art, and the influence of the giant elephant in the room, the political climate of today.Įarlier this week, Briggs announced the Kickstarter for his passion project.
