I love how this organization in the comic seems to be completely self-regulated, as are many such state-funded organizations, whether in the Province of Quebec (Canada) or Norway! And since there is no independent body to do complaint treatment, to assess the efficiency of the system, to ensure the actual protection of the children, there is this smothering of the actual cases. There is virtually no juridical support for people who end up in the system. Whether they are told their rights, or whom to address their complaints to, or where to get help (and how!) when dire situations arise. And what is the reason for this lack of outside regulation? Economic efficiency. We always cut service to those that cannot defend themselves and those who have no one to lobby for them. It creates a circle of abuse. And you portray that very well. You make the reader wonder: "How can this be happening?!", "Where is the police?!", "Where are the politicians?!". You make the reader ask all those questions. And then, a simple Google search makes things so much more clear. And so much more real. You really have a way to grip the reader's emotions with this comic and to guide them towards rational, objective thoughts. That is a very precious, very rare talent, that you have. And it is beautiful that you are using it to bring awareness. It is too bad other talented people do not realize how their talent could impact the world.
It all started when her grandma died. Ever since then, Jade could see dead people. With her spirit eyes, she’s studied them. Souls of the suffering, souls of the wronged, and the most tormented…revenants, souls of the murdered who now seek revenge. If only she’d known about them when her little brother was adopted from their orphanage. If only she’d known that those people weren’t parents to be but child traffickers, revenants of the many children lost clinging to their backs. Years later, Jade is ready. She will find them, but will she see her brother again?
