Polloman is a soon-to-be published graphic novel series inspired by Mexican Folklore, mythology and culture, aswell as the Asian inspired worlds such as Avatar the Last Airbender and Studio Ghibli I grew up with.

 

Stumbling into an Aztec underworld fueled by sacrifice, a timid boy named Emmanuel struggles to fulfill someone else's destiny, discover dormant gods, and vanquish six terrifying Latin American Legends to bring peace to the living and the dead.
