Aton, also known as
Anthony Louis-Jeune, just finished putting together his work for a Haitian comic book superhero.
This dream, which has been in the making since he was a child and a comic book junky, came into effect just recently when he started attending school. He used a class thesis as an opportunity for him to give life to the superhero, Aton: The Demi God.

Along with his girlfriend, Cindy Ramirez Torres, who is a fashion designer, Aton worked on creating a futuristic suit for Aton: The Demi God.
The suit, as Aton envisioned it to be, is heavily influenced by the Egyptian, Taino and Haitian cultures.
"I didn't want a superhero like the other ones [I worked on]," Aton explained. Unlike his other superheroes, such as Eklatman, Aton: The Demi God wears a specific costume, has moral values, and fights for human rights.

In addition, Aton combined his story to one of his previous works, which is "Foula Wouj" (Red Scarf).
"I created a character to make [Foula Wouj] more powerful," he said. He wanted to include a hero to this story.

Aton is planning on promoting the superhero in Haiti in the near future. He is currently working on a three minute video, in which Aton: The Demi God will tackle environmental issues, and an album, with each song representing a chapter of the comic book.
