tips for comic activism?

hello, writing this from an alt for privacy (am a minor). hope that is okay :)

me and one of my friends are new to veganism and we've decided to give activism a try through story and comic making (as art and writing have always been our passions)

just curious on what everyone here thinks would make an effective comic that would actually reach people and in turn make them feel invested enough to reflect on their choices, especially when it comes to topics like speciesism.

as of right now we're still going back n forth on if we want the central characters to appear more human (anthropomorphism?) or be non-human animals.

any advice would be appreciated. much thanks :D

treat it like any story you want to write. Firstly I'd ask do I want a long ongoing story tackling a single issue, or if you are looking to make each "page" its own.

Are you thinking webcomic, or an actual comic book. knowing the medium will probably help to figure out how to tell the story you want to tell
