"Swift Spark and the Defense Five" has been a webcomic of mine since 2016, but I've always wanted to animate it. In 2020, I actually started on this passion project to make a pilot episode of a hypothetical show. I'm currently working on an improved version of this teaser.
SYNOPSIS:
Based on the webcomic of the same name, Swift Spark and the Defense Five follows the adventures of sixteen-year-old James Riverdale as he treads into the footsteps of his superhero father. Together with his friends, he is on a mission to find out what really happened to the Red Spark, who disappeared without a trace years earlier – as well as stop VIPER Inc., a corporation dedicated to creating supervillains to do their bidding. James has to learn what it means to be a superhero, as well as balance the life of an ordinary high school boy with the responsibilities of his secret identity.
LOGLINE:
James, a teenager turned superhero, takes up his father’s secret identity as he tries to find out what really happened to him. Together with his friends, he protects his home from the supervillains his father tried to defeat years earlier.
Pretty promising! Animation was pretty smooth, the art feels like something out of a comic book (oh wait lol), and the voice acting was alright. I'd love to see what the improved version of this trailer looks like. I wish you the best of luck, and hopefully this will be a newgrounds classic. :)
Hey, thanks a bunch! Some of the animation I see here is so stellar I was worried to get blammed right out of the gate, lol. I'm glad you enjoy it: the new version will be fully on-model and take out the animation mistakes that are in this one! Hope you'll stick around to watch it! :D
