Vattu (comic)
From Rice Boy Wiki
Vattu is Evan Dahm's third Overside comic, after Rice Boy and Order of Tales. It began in late July 2010. Vattu contains some stylistic changes that set it apart from Dahm's other comics, including third-person narration and speech bubbles that cross panel boundaries.
While the story is still young, it will likely be concerned with the activities of Vattu, a Fluter living in the Esterteng in eastern Acirca.
Teasers
In the months before Vattu began, Dahm revealed small bits of information about the story and artwork. The most significant reveal happened on 31 March (four months before the comic's beginning), when Dahm shared the design of Vattu and the first line of the comic on Ustream. On 17 June, a month before the beginning of Vattu, Dahm created a placeholder page with an image showing the pattern on Vattu's forehead, which he later used to announce the comic's starting date of 26 July.
On 11 July, Dahm changed the header image on http://rice-boy.com to show a Vattu-themed map of the Esterteng,[1][2] which was adorned with a new writing system. This "Sahta" Script, when decoded, provided information about the setting of Vattu. On 26 July, after the first three pages had been posted, Dahm shared a model sheet on twitter containing the names and appearances of eleven Fluters,[3] expanding on another model sheet he had posted on 15 July.[4]
