The Adventures of Mar + Com Comic Book and Digital Ad Campaign started as a simple family dinnertime discussion. “When my daughter started showing an interest in drawing, we thought what all parents think, ‘she’s so talented, clearly she’ll be the next Van Gogh’. We started ideating what an Adventures of Mar + Com character might look like. We shared ideas, some outrageous, some too clever to ignore while we ate dinner that evening. Over the next few days, it was all she wanted to talk about. What would happen if…” One thing led to another and a basic storyboard and script turned into an illustrated comic book. The campaign followed and it has been nothing but rewarding.
