Username: Evie

YouTube sensation Sugg provided direction for this failed graphic novel project. British teen Evie is an outcast at her school with her own cousin, Mallory, cast in the role of her chief tormentor. Evie's mother died when Evie was young, and when her programming genius father dies, too, Evie is taken in by Mallory's family. She discovers that her father created a virtual realm for her called E.scape, which she can access on her laptop. E.scape and all of its denizens respond to Evie's thoughts and moods, becoming a perfect refuge for her until Mallory discovers the program and goes on a rampage, warping the E.scape community with her violent temper. None of this is completely original, nor does it lift this work to the level of success. The characters' proportions aren't quite right; their faces have too many angles, while the action has too many motion lines. Altogether, the art has the feeling of the early efforts of a student—there is passion, but the technique is lacking.
