In this episode of Storycomic Presents, I’m joined by Benjamin Hunting to go deep into his brand-new Kickstarter project: Model UN Pt 1 — Aliens + High School + 90s + Manga. When a group of extraterrestrials mistakes a high school Model UN class for the actual United Nations, chaos, comedy, and existential questions ensue. Benjamin walks us through how he conceived this mash-up of teenage angst, sci-fi, and ’90s nostalgia. We’ll discuss the art style, pacing, character design, and risky gambit of hitting 95% funding in the first 24 hours. Whether you’re a comics fan, creator, or just intrigued by alien misunderstandings, this episode is loaded with fun, world‑building, and creative ambition.
