Professional Meddlers is an action/adventure comic about four civilians-turned-secret-agents working for an officially non-existent government agency and having lots of adventures where interesting people try to kill them.
In a nutshell, think 24 mixed with a dash of Metal Gear Solid for the theme and the aesthetics of Brian Jacques' Redwall: an espionage story with some slight cyberpunk elements, set in a world of animal-people. Many of you might ask, why that last part? A few reasons: it makes for interesting character designs, it works fantastically for social metaphors, and it opens up all kinds of interesting avenues for fight scenes and jokes. It also makes the whole thing a little more abstract; we don't followers to read any politically or socially polarizing themes into this story, and making the aesthetic a little more fantastical goes a long way towards that. If you have any preconceived notions about all this, throw 'em out the window. At its core this is simply an awesome story, and we're going to deliver something anyone and everyone can enjoy.

It will be a while before the comic proper is up and running-- but in the meantime, enjoy the concept art, character sketches, and other materials we'll be putting up on here as teasers.
