VCDM 219 Theme Ideas for Senior Thesis

There are three ideas I was thinking about using for the senior thesis. One of the theme ideas that I chose is called "Autism," which is the disability of what I am diagnosed with. The reason why I chose this theme is that I wanted to show the viewers how autistic people see the world and that they should not be oppressed just because they are different from everyone else and instead see them as special individuals. Another theme idea would be the coronavirus pandemic or "COVID-19" since it is the current virus outbreak that caused the deaths of billions of people worldwide and left many homes, schools, and other places quarantined. The third theme idea is superheroes because I enjoy reading comic books such as DC and Marvel comics that includes many popular superhero stories and it would be a good idea to make a comic that can involve a superhero or at least a protagonist of a story.

Which One of the Comic Books Interests Me?

It was tough to choose which comic book that I enjoy reading since there are dozens of comic books. For example, the "DC Dark Knights: Death Metal" by  Scott Snyder  and  Greg Capullo  are what I am currently reading, and it is a really great comic book crossover. But one of my favorite comic books that I am going to share is "Spider-Gwen" by  Robbi Rodriguez .  I just love both the art style and the storyline of this Marvel comic book and Spider-Gwen has been a popular character since 2015.

A Superhero that I Created Myself

 I was thinking of fusing my two theme ideas, "autism" and "superhero", together because I thought it would be a great idea to inspire autistic people like myself and even other disabled people. I do not see very much comics that introduce autistic characters in comics like DC and Marvel such as Black Manta, Legion, Johnny Do, M-Twins, Dummy, Pathway, Xaos, Goblyn, Nuklo, Agent Deems, Mark Shiffron, and, most surprisingly and recently, Mister Fantastic, and other autistic comic book characters.  I decided to create a superhero vigilante named Khalifa Rose, also known as “TelepathSage”. The name Khalifa means “leader” in Arabic and could foreshadow her character development as a hero. Khalifa Rose has been a name that stuck on me for quite a long time, but I never used it. I wanted her to have mind powers because autism always happens in the mind no matter what kind of autistic disability that an individual has. She is an autistic teenaged girl who starts out having ...
