How a Comic Can Raise Awareness on Saving Our Planet: Teslaman Fights Dirty (Pollution, Global Warming, etc.)

Abstract

How can a superhero graphic novel make the public aware of the dangers that our planet faces? This superhero, along with his partners (Pachamama (aka Mother Earth), and Windmill Giant) fight the villains Paul Looter, Smogman, Poison, and Stinky who put money above saving our planet. The comic deals with the effects of Global Warming, pollution, pesticides and the effects of fossil fuels on our environment and the world. Teslaman comes from a planet that was destroyed because it did not foresee the effects that climate change and lethal disasters would have on their planet. The superhero is a fan of Nikola Tesla.
