Kulo-Luna is the $Billion Dollar Whale

 

Kulo-Luna is a fictional humpback whale that sinks a Japanese whaling ship after pirates kill her friend Kana - but is herself injured. This event is the start of an adventure where an ocean conservationist abandons a solar boat race to save the whale for another Japanese whaling boat that has been sent to kill the brave cetacean. If you like happy endings, this is a story for you. Unlike Moby-Dick, where all but one of the crew survive.

 

 

 

Kulo-Luna is the flagship ocean awareness project of the Cleaner Ocean Foundation.

 

We hope that by producing and distributing a story (to libraries in the UK) that features a solar powered boat (climate change) ocean pollution and whaling, that generations to come, who would not normally know of such issues, will enjoy reading a comic that graphically presents the struggle of one brave humpback whale for survival.

 

 

 

The Elizabeth Swann (above) is the 'Clean, Queen of the Seas,' in this epic conservation adventure where a humpback whale takes on pirate whalers, and lives to fight another day.

 

 

We hope that in doing so, whaling nations might scale down their activities, and that non-whaling nations will help whaling nations by addressing climate change to combat desertification and acid oceans, and the pressure on whales to make up for the reduction in fish stocks.

These Chapters are for story development purposes, the above is a Road Map guide for artists and writers, in the production of Kulo Luna.

 

 

 

 

Herman Melville was the original anti-whaling lobbyist with his telling of Moby Dick in such graphic details that pictures were not necessary. It took time for his work to receive the recognition it deserved, but once he achieved that status, his marine masterpiece raised the awareness of issues that continue to haunt us. We aim to carry forward the same message in a format that takes somewhat less time to read.
