How It All Began
What would become the Riserverse started circa 2001 when Hali began making super-powered characters and stories based around those characters. Between 2001 and 2019, the characters underwent numerous revisions; characters were altered beyond recognition, new characters arrived, old characters left, and eventually things were unrecognizable from where she began.
In 2016, Hali revisited the old world once more and gave it one more revitalization that would birth the Riserverse and the world that would become the home of Riserverse Comics.
In 2019, Hali was joined by her brother and two friends with their own characters, ideas, and stories. The end result of their energetic storytelling and idea-swapping was the realization that they had something worth sharing with the world. Thus Riserverse Comics was born under the guiding hands of Hali Rihn, E. Kibo Gowatski, Evan Momyer, & Justin Kerrigan.
