Hey! If you guys are still accepting, I've got a spicy app fresh outta my brain-oven for you. If not, well, enjoy the colorful metaphor and the evidence that I spend too much time writing about fictional characters :D [hider=open me it's a surprise][CENTER][h1][color=silver][b]DANNY PHANTOM[/b][/color][/h1][hr][sup][color=silver]"Going Ghost."[/color] [/sup][h3][sup][sup][color=silver]DANNY FENTON [color=black]♦[/color] APRIL 3rd, 2001 (15) [color=black]♦[/color] MALE [color=black]♦[/color] NEUTRAL GOOD[/color][/sup][/sup][/h3][img]http://img05.deviantart.net/ca4b/i/2012/232/a/3/dp__town_protector_by_mira_kl-d5btlhn.jpg[/img] [/CENTER] [COLOR=black][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]C O N C E P T A B S T R A C T:[/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT][i]I know he's just a children's cartoon, but bear with me, I think with the right direction, Danny Phantom can become something really special. While the show delved into comedy and hit trope after trope of an after-school superhero show, I want to do something different here in Absolute Comics. I want to hit the themes that are inherent in Danny Phantom's concept that the show couldn't cover due to its target audience. Basically, I want to tell a ghost story. A real ghost story, with horror and chills and moments that make you remember that this is just a fifteen year old kid who died because of a dare, woke up, and found himself launched into a terrifying world he didn't know existed until moments ago. That being said, I don't want to stray too far from the core of Danny's character. He's still going to be that immature, snarky, occasionally selfish but mostly heroic kid that I grew up watching. He'll still banter even though he's terrified, still find ways to have fun with his ghost powers, and at the end of the day he's still going to give it his all to protect the people he loves. But I'm going to try and incorporate a bit more of an edge to this version of Danny. The supernatural is amazing and horrifying, and fear makes people do drastic, at-times unsettling things in order to protect those they love. This Danny will have to make choices, have to deal with the consequences of his actions, and have to learn that not every battle can be won. That sometimes you lose, and sometimes you lose people, and the only thing you can do about it is learn from your mistake and make sure it never happens again. The first story arc will be set in 2016 right before his sophomore semester starts, and deal with Danny's coping with his own death and his first few harrowing encounters with ghosts.

I'll eventually get a timeline up and running for the little ghost-dweeb.[/i][/indent][/indent][/hider]
