Even as a boy, Kyrun Silva couldn't stop creating.

His earliest memories are of drawing characters in his room while watching cartoons on TV. He recalls being "fascinated with everything geeky," but the compelling storytelling and beautiful artwork he found in comics gave root to his enduring creative passion and his current project, Big Tree Comics.

Kyrun founded Big Tree Comics in the spring of 2014, with its flagship title, Shaman's Destiny. Written, drawn and inked by Kyrun, the series portrays the adventures of Malik, a young man chosen by Gaea, the spirit of the Earth, to protect humankind from supernatural beings, demons, and other creatures that mean them harm. The first three issues are available now, both digitally and here at Empire's.

Kyrun is busy expanding his comic enterprise, with a goal to "make Big Tree Comics and its stable of fun and entertaining titles, household names." To that end, he recently launched the webcomic, "Vocabularious," and is hard at work developing two new series for debut in 2015.
