PROJECT: CELSIUS
      

WHAT IS CELSIUS?
The Celsius Saga, is a 7 part, 200 page graphic novel accompanied by a seven CD musical soundtrack. A pastiche of B-Movie plots, Science Fiction clichιs and Broadway Musicals, The Celsius Saga presents a bumbling set of space adventurers traveling across the universe to rescue a kidnapped diplomat, all the while singing incidental pop songs. The story is told as a comic strip that you read as you listen along to the CD. This populist format provides an ideal and subversive platform in which to bend narrative codes and explore current social issues such as cloning, gender roles, political diplomacy and the nature of the anti-hero.  Enhanced by Lobby Cards, Bubblegum Cards, a Graphic Novel, Fan Club Kit, Web Site and large painted images.
