At 9 years old Max developed a love of reading and drawing that soon inspired him to create his own graphic novel. The result has been an epic journey through time and space, where the past (and the future) are being redefined by two of the most unlikely friends. 

 I'm Lizzy. I'm a Florida native who spends all of my free time drawing, cooking, and taking care of my two cats, Link and Miss Kitty. I grew up reading web comics and manga and am thrilled to be part of making such a fun comic now! 

Sometimes life is hard, sometimes people are mean, and sometimes only a big change can make someone realize they really do belong somewhere else. 

That is the inspiration for this story. 

Max had the unfortunate experience of being bullied at school and made to feel like he wasn't good at anything. 

He made the tough choice to change schools in 4th grade and began putting all his efforts into creating a comic he could share with new friends, at a new school, and show that he was good at something. That comic became R&D.
