Hello, I’m Jean Holmes, writer of the original serial webnovel ÆnigmaVerse—a blend of science fiction, horror, and mystery.
We're currently working on a manga one-shot adaptation titled Messier 83, based on a chapter from the main story. The script is fully complete and ready for review:

Some artists have already joined the project, but due to schedule changes and availability, we are currently re-recruiting.
Currently Seeking:
- Character Designers – Help bring emotionally complex characters to life
- Monster/Creature Artists – Draw body-horror inspired cosmic beings
- Background Artists – Design sci-fi dystopian landscapes and eerie dreamworlds
- Storyboard Artists – Layout and direct panels (rough sketches are welcome!)
- Illustrators for Character Art/Promo Art – Even a single piece can help build momentum and audience
Two Ways to Collaborate:
- Join the team: Help adapt the manga one-shot with fellow creatives (great for portfolio and team-based storytelling)
- Contribute one-off art: No time for a full collab? Drawing a character for promotion can make a big difference—and you’ll be fully credited and spotlighted!
What to Expect:
- A complete script ready to go
- A small, growing team of passionate creators
- Full credit on all platforms (website, socials, Patreon, etc.)
- The potential to grow this into something big—contest submissions, crowdfunding, and paid phases are the goal
This is a passion project, unpaid for now, but I’m fully committed to compensating contributors as soon as we gain traction. If you’re looking to collaborate on something atmospheric, mysterious, and emotionally deep—we’d be thrilled to have you aboard.
Feel free to DM me for more info, and thank you for reading.
