Tony Todd is now the Official Goodwill Ambassador for Focus Comic

Tony Todd, is now the official goodwill ambassador for Focus Comic and will also be the voice of Focus. He is also appearing within the comic as Thato.

Tony Todd loves the idea of a comic book featuring an autistic super hero and loves the social work we are doing and would love to help us advocate for greater autism awareness acceptance through our comic and community work. Tony has a big heart for autism awareness.

In an exclusive interview with Focus Comic, Tony Todd said: “Focus the comic book, is worth supporting because so many people need new heroes. Making the titular character, someone who’s struggling with social norms. And one who finds clarity while called to duty, is empowering. So many children struggling with autism find power and serenity in either drawing, or playing with crystal clear colors. Focus hopefully, will not only provide a hero worth cheering for, but a hero for the unspoken, on all platforms, for years to come. Focus”

We currently have 2 interns as part of our Focus comic autism awareness campaign. Malekith, is 12 and is our youngest Autistic intern. Tabidi is our oldest autistic intern at 21 years of age. Douglas Hebert,  (a certified art teacher) and Yvonne Wan (Sole creator of Focus, and certified social cultural anthropologist) are responsible for the interns coaching so they can fulfill their  creative potential. The interns will have their work published within the community page of the comic.

 

Focus comic is unique as it is created by a certified social cultural anthropologist Yvonne Wan.

Many thanks to the supporting contributing artists and colorists and interpreters and supporters of this important social cause campaign. We will release more information about our contributors in future posts.

We will release more information about the other characters in the comic soon.

Thank you Tony for sharing this news on his social media platforms.
