Dormworld Crew

There is a battle being waged that is physical, mental and spiritual.  The battle exists on a plane where fantasy and reality merge to create a supernatural urban landscape.  One of the main goals is to understand the power of words.  The weapon of choice is a comic book.  This is the fantastical world created by Dormworld Crew in their comic book series, BattleMasterz.  Founded by members Antuan Broussard, Sha Broussard and Bruce Broussard the crew has created a series inspired by classic cartoons, Japanese anime and kung fu and set in the contemporary world.  The concept was formed to promote literacy amongt youth in an entertaining format without excessive violence, profanity or misogyny.  One of the main themes is to promote an understanding of the power of words to challenge corruption, deceit and society’s inequities.  The collective is receiving considerable buzz and will be featured at this year’s popular New York Comic Con convention.
