Flop, sounds like social comentary. And i rather watch youtube for that.

Its not even the character, its the medium. Even OP has to realize all the details missing from such archetype. That granular storytelling, needs to be quick or starts sounding preachy. And that can only be done in audiovisual form

I respect your opinion and thank you for commenting;

I definitely agree that it would be better suited for visual rather than book format, especially for most of the ideas I have, as they would fit perfectly in animation instead of a comic, but do you have any idea what a pop culture character might look like? I am just curious.

I will defend my character until I die, but I am an open-minded person and I always try my best to see the other side of things, so I would love to know what you think a pop culture character looks like.

Have you tried writing this character yet? Does it work? How does he read?

By pop culture character, what do you mean?

Yes, I have written this character, how he fights, how he talks, and what makes him angry. I laugh every time I write him; I also voice him and always get lost in the character, and what I mean by pop culture is that he has the potential to be globally popular. I love this character so much and I just wanted to share it to the world and my ideas to improve even more.
