Shooting Stars (3C)

Shooting Stars is a catastrophe scenario for Critically Credentially Commercial Comics, on what would happen if the United States of America were to fall, and how. This comic series has a conventional approach, by staying focused on one main character throughout the course of the nation-wide events.

Background
This comic book series had been worked upon for years under the working title Anarchy, and, through an unsuccessful series of events, has come to be included as part of Critically Credentially Commercial Comics, in a revamped way. The idea behind the comic was the author's eagerness to see what could be done upon the gimmick of the United States of America becoming a apocalyptic wasteland - a concept used in enormous amounts of works - as a sort of challenge.

Plot
In modern times, during presidential elections, a candidate rises through television shows, interviews, and all-around good publicity. Not only that, he also manipulates the system to go in his way. Trafficking votes is hardly possible, but he uses techniques such as lowering the complexity of his words, making people more sure of him, or identifying as Republican, said party being extremely popular. The method that changed the outcome of this event was to exploit the Electoral College's faults in order to have a high chance of winning with a low amount of votes. Through his very active campaign, the candidate became the new President of the United States with 61.3% of votes.
