Last night I watched Ender’s Game, a story close to my heart since reading it in my formative years. I won’t rail on the movie, which is fine, but can’t hold a candle to the book, nor is it helped by the abundance over the past decade of child savior narratives. Being back in that world did compel me to dig up a collection of logos I made for my youngest brother in early 2000. He was something of an Ender as a teenager, leading troops in on online army game called Counter Strike. I think I spent the entire weekend in my apartment in LA working on these, which served as the emblems for his team’s squadrons. Seeing the depiction of kid soldiers and the Battle Room reminded me of the legacy that story’s had, within me and so many others. So I’m dusting off this old collection and am sharing it out of a sentiment for teamwork and brotherly love.
