At CompellingCharacters.co.uk, I genuinely believe these archetypal figures speak to something in our human experience. As a kid, I jumped around in a cape pretending to fly —now I just read the comics and write about it instead. My hope is that something here clicks with you, makes you think, or at least gives you a chuckle.
Thanks for stopping by!
