THE HERO’SORDINARY WORLD 1

A GARBAGE DUMP

CALLED EARTH

Our hero lives on earth. Though, it is not the earth we know. Earth has turned into a giant dump station where no one, except for wall-e and his cockroach friend, has lived for the past 8000 years.

THERE’S MORE

BEYOND THESTARS

Wall-E is a dreamer. He is every now and then looking up towards the sky dreaming about adventures. What he doesn’t know is that a big adventure is approaching. One day, all of a sudden, does a giant spaceship land on the surface of earth. On board is a robot called Eve. Wall-E’s adventure starts at the moment he sees her and falls in love with her.
