Comic shoutout of the week is 🥁 🥁🥁
Mokepon!
Mokepon takes place in the pokemon world where everyone is obsessed with being a trainer. Our main character, an aspiring artist who doesn't like pokemon, gets kicked out of his house to follow his "dreams" of becoming a pokemon trainer. His pokemon journey is anything but standard. (Pg 13)
I think I'm going to keep up these comic shoutouts. There are so many comics and artists that deserve recognition! (For the sake of not running out of material, I'll only be doing one a week, and I won't stick to just underrated ones)

Have you ever considered creating a walkthrough for Dawn Will Come?
Just cuz I was one of the two people who designed the game doesn't mean I'm good at beating it hahaha. Other people do much better than I do. Game design's wild, huh. But I might put together some tips sometime- That could be fun.

Finally, here’s my little SunnyCon haul post~!
First off, not something I bought, but the mini dango I was given by the Nagisa cosplayer just for recognising the character…! It’s so small and cute~! /)^^(\
This cute little Halloween pin to add to my collection because it’s always Halloween, made by @spookdoodles
A GHOSTS POSTER IN THE HORRIBLE HISTORIES ART STYLE I SWEAR I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS especially since I had bought some stickers from this artist the day before and hadn’t noticed their Ghosts stuff! This is by @h0lyhandgrenade (tho they seem to be more active on Twitter so check their blog for that link!)
Also by H0ly is some DHMIS stickers and this little Humphrey keychain~! Yazi got ones of Pat and the Captain. The aro pride badge is from Queer And Cute, the “ghost friend” badge is (I think?) by @charlyvonkarma, ace and aro planet stickers by Chao and Gravity Falls stickers by (I think?) HowlinWolfArt on Twitter
And I went back to H0ly to get @the-tiktok-rogue something too so here’s your present Leo! You said Robin or Pat, but I got you both *^*
The traditional AngelKat caricature sketches I got for this year are of Robin and Mary~ It’s always a must to get at least one of these ;) @t-iii

DESPITE the grueling selection process designed with the intent of picking the creme of the crop, fact of the matter is those of the prestigious ua also have their off days. even the LOUD && BRASS fell victim. currently it effected the student who worked to bring his A game to every lesson. attention simply unable to settle on anything in particular, it surfaces irritating ( and frightening ) reminders of the days before tablets offered any help. for what MUST have been the millionth iteration he hadn’t heard what the teacher said. whatever it was dismissed the class into groups, most turning to their immediate left or right. he looks within his own vicinity, the only remaining student being the quiet one- aizawa was it? he turns to face him, irritation concealed behind tinted lenses.
“ hey grumpy-- what’d the teacher want us to do? i zoned out for a bit. ”

sniper x spy Inspired by h0lyhandgrenade
Dinner date
Sniper awoke groggily his eyes felt as if they had been glued shut. He forced them open and looked at his surroundings he saw he was in a very fancy looking room its dark oak walls and floor were carved into intricate designs. Sniper realized he was sitting in a chair or more like tied to a chair his wrists were tied to the arms of the chair and his feet to the legs of the chair it was thick rope something that would be used to make a trap... Wait for traps! Snipers memory cane flooding
Flashback
Sniper was having a friendly conversation with the scout. They were both laughing at a joke he had just told but suddenly scouts exterior melted and revealed a smirking spy. Snipers eyes widened in horror he was about to shoot with the trusty gun he always kept by but something came over his head sharply and the last thing he remembered was a smirking spy and a thumping pain in his head.
Present
Sniper struggled he pulled and tugged at the bindings he had only realized there was a gag in his mouth when he tried to scream for help. Sniper took another look around the room it was very modern and beautiful this must have been outside the base because he didn't remember there being a room like this there. Suddenly the door was thrown open and a smiling spy strutted in he was dressed in his usual suit and mask their deep red material seemed to have been freshly washed as a strong smell came from it. Sniper also smelt that the spy smelled of aftershave and cologne it was intoxicating Sniper let out an almost feral growl as the spy stopped in front of him .“Hello dear” he said in a thick French accent. Sniper let out another growl “ what the hell do ya think ya doin ya bloody show pony” he tried to say but failed miserably because if the gag Spy didn't seem to care he only let out a deep laugh. "well aren't you adorable! You know, I've always thought you were quite cute when your feisty” Sniper despite hating the situation couldn't help but blush Spy let out another laugh. “So you're probably wondering why I kidnapped you?” Sniper let out a muffled yell of ‘yes!’ Spy grabbed the back of the chair and spun him around. After overcoming his dizziness Sniper realized there was a table it looked as if it had been taken straight out of a restaurant Sniper looked at spy with a mix of confusion and hate.
“Do you like it? It's just for you” Spy thick voice said “I have been thinking about asking you on a dinner date but you're so busy all the time I thought I would make it easy for myself and just kidnap you” Sniper let out a confused whimper. The spy had kidnapped him because of a little crush! Was he insane? The sniper was so busy with his thoughts he didn't realize that his hat was being pulled off it was placed on the floor next to the chair. Sniper let out a whimper Spy took his place at the other end of the table. The table had a white cloth on it two wine glasses filled and two plates with food on them it looked like lamb and vegetables. Sniper also realised that a napkin was tucked under his chin. Spy raised his glass and said. “To us my dear” he took a swig as Sniper sat staring at him. Spy noticed his sour face “don’t worry I'll unite you” he stood up and slithered around him he undid the arm restraints but left the legs. He also removed the gag allowing Sniper the ability to use his voice. “ you psycho I'm not interested in a dinner date I have a job ya know”! Spy rolled his eyes and sat back down .“I know! why do you think I did this?” Snipe fell silent he knew he wasn’t getting out of this. Spy smiled knowing he had won he stabbed Snipers meat and held it up to his mouth “ come on just a couple bites and then I promise I’ll let you go”. Sniper sighed he decided he would swallow his pride and go along with this game he opened his mouth and gently took the piece between his teeth he chewed and swallowed. “There we are it wasn’t that bad” Spy said Sniper sighed this was going to be a long evening
Sniper sat in his own room the dinner date had finally ended Spy had kept his promise and as soon as he was finished he was allowed to leave. But strangely he didn’t want to leave he had reluctantly went when he realised how late it was Sniper had crawled into bed and let thoughts creep into his mind. ‘ maybe being with spy wouldn’t be that bad’
The End

Random Webcomic Reccomendations
This post is dedicated to bringing to the spotlight several webcomics
(some would be considered webmanga but I’m counting them too since they are primarily presented on webcomic websites) which I’ve been enjoying that I hope can get more traction/fandom with this post. Due to my personal tastes I can say many/most have a sci fi or fantasy theming as well as some (definitely not all) have wlw as well.
Since this post will be quite extensive, I’ll first start with a “table of contents” for those who don’t want synopsises or ramblings, but instead just want titles and want to just check them out themselves.
Bybloemen
My Dragon Girlfriend
Sanguine
Straylight Tiger
Cariciphona
Amongst Us
Kiss It Goodbye
Mokepon
Seven Miles Down
UnDivine
Bybloemen
Hosted on its own website under hiveworkscomics
This is a historical semi-fantasy set during the infamous Tulip Mania period of Dutch/European history when people would pay an arm and a leg for even a single potentially valuable tulip bulb.
In this setting we follow two devils Basil and Ludwig and their avian familiars strut into the action, pretending to be foreign investors getting in on the tulip hype, probably to ensnare some desperate souls, all the while keeping man and beast alike from catching sus that they are not as human as they claim to be.
As of writing this the story is just starting up but is already making quite the unique statement. The distinct black and white artstyle is clearly holding homage to the historical “Woodcut” printmaking style in how it’s drawn, lined, and textured, which is a refreshing way to artistically state that the comic is “set in the past” w/o doing just grayscale or sepia tone that one is used to seeing for media set in historical times.
The interactions between the devils as well as the animals they can communicate with so far have been quite amusing.
If you don’t directly use hiveworkscomics for your usual webcomic browsing (so don’t get notified by it) they do have both a tumblr and twitter which frequently announce/link its updates. Bonus following their twitter/tumblr being you get to see occasionally “sketches” (I say that term very loosely) of the characters outside of the webcomic series if you’re into that.
My Dragon Girlfriend
Available on Webtoons and Twitter
Fantasy alongside modern era setting. It is primarily a wlw webcomic series about a human girl named Christy who is swept off her feet by a dragon girl named Dani, semi-magical/mythical wlw hijinks ensue. It’s hard for me to pin its identity entirely, cause while I wanna say it’s a “Slice of Life” the webcomic is at the point where Dani is fighting a werewolf tooth and nail so it’s hard to pin. It’s clearly romance genre, as even if Dani and Chirsty end up together lickity split (a blink of the eye compared to the slow-burn of most romance stories) there are other wlw subplots going on with secondary primary characters which you’ll be routing for.
It has its steamy moments and implies sex but not so far as to show full-on nudity of the main characters characters. Though there is some nudity of some of the monstergirls such as the fawn girls on the other hand it does not beat around the bush with, but luckily takes the nudity in a natural non-sexual way Correction as of writing this; only the Twitter version shows nudity, they had to censor with bras on Webtoons cause it got flagged.
If you want it hotter/steamier, sign up to the artist’s patreon. It’s definitely a nice softish wlw webomic if you’re craving a lil monstergirl flavour.
Sanguine
Available on Tapas and Webtoons
Full-on adventure fantasy setting set in a world where magic and mages have been persecuted to the point of going into secrecy.
It stars a cute red-riding-hood-like implied secret-royal (that was too much a mouthful) lady named Red, and a tall gorgeous beefy secretly mage lady named Morgan which Red has dragged into her shenanigans with.
It’s early to call this a wlw gem as of the current updates, but it is tagged as lgbt+ so take that with potential further wisdom.
This webcomic uses colour a fair bit to set its tone/mood, but otherwise has a very comfy/warm feeling about it somehow, like some of those old comics/webcomics/novels you would welcome to read while snuggled under blankets. Also the outfits are REALLY nicely designed, and I could definitely see some peeps having fun cosplaying many of these characters.
As the story slowly progresses I am holding with baited breath to how Red and Morgan’s interactions/relationship may or may not evolve, as I am totally an absolute sucker for “friendly/bubbly naïveish character dragging along the cool/grumpy don’t-get-involved character that has a hidden soft heart” trope.
Straylight Tiger
Available on Webtoons and Tapas
WARNING- while infrequent this one has some blood/gore that will shake you up, though it puts it where it would be most sensible to. Lucky for you most blood in this series is not the usual human-red blood which tones the edge down.
It may have lots of fantasy elements but this one definitely holds its identity as Sci Fi. Set in a futuristic cyberesque city full of both good and bad superhumans (one group being animal shapeshifters and the other being elemental casters), there is an extremist cult out to wreck havoc in the city, so a company responds by recruiting a handful of individuals from all 3 races to make a secret task force to eliminate the threat.
The main character in this story is a secretly-a-tiger shapeshifter named Angeline.
This is probably the most visually colourful of the webcomics in my list and is really using it to charge up its stylistic sci fi setting. Best way I could compare it to; you know those glow-in-the-dark cyber avatars you occasionally see in VRchat? Straylight Tiger matches that visual energy. Of listed so far this is also the most action-packed webcomic on the list. I could almost call it a Trigger-like comic but luckily unlike Studio Trigger it’s not into going nuts on fanservice.
If you’re craving your superhuman sci fi action, this one should at least be checked out. I want to say there’ll be wlw at some point, but it’s too early to call, and if it does I would not expect it to be a major arc when it has larger fish for plot points to deal with.
If you’re craving wlw of at least mc and her weapons-savvy human friend, I highly recommend you checking out the artist Flying Frappe’s twitter to get some sating for you wlw cravings for the two.
Caricophona
Available on webtoons as well as its own webcomic site
Tragic fantasy setting starring a supermagical woman named Veloice as she is hunted by an Assassin. I tag it as there is an undertone of death in some of the arcs, which give this colourfully magical world a more sombre tone. Among the webcomics on the list this one may be steepest when it comes to catching to speed of the world’s setting/rules/hierarchies but once you do you’ll hunger for this more.
I can’t entirely make a perfect comparison for it (Full Metal Alchemist is as close as I could compare and they are still as different to each other as apples and oranges) but it really has that rich nostalgic old manga style/world/tone to it, and its most welcome to as well.
The world building is rich, and Veloice is a mental/magical powerhouse even if at times she has a fragility about her. The fact she’s a Caricophona; magical beings which tend to either get persecuted or expire early at age from their own condition, definitely helps with giving her a almost “glass canon” energy about her.
While those points have definitely helped hook me in, the thing that tends to excite me the most in this webcomic is Veloice’s interactions with the assassin who’s been send to kill her, named Blackbird. The tension between them, the fact Blackbird both wants to toy with her, Blackbird’s somewhat flirtatious nature towards Veloice OMFG I EAT IT UP!!!! They have such a enemies to lovers feeling to them (though no, they are not lovers- we can dream though) which just gets you so excited.
I should also mention there are two other “primary characters” in the group. Two rich naïve kids ready to help Veloice however they can. You grow to like them (even if they hit tropes that may strike a nerve if you’re tired to their character type), but the mvp of this webcomic for character and interaction has to be Veloice and Blackbird.
Amongst Us
Available on webtoons and its own website
Say you like Veloice and Blackbird from the previous webcomic, but find the hefty fantasy setting a bit too much, and you’re more for the romance? What if I told you the artist was galaxy brained enough to make a chiller AU? That is what Amongst Us is; a music college-set slice of life with a slow burn romance between Veloice and Blackbird. They’re dorky, their cute, and seeing some of the characters you’re familiar with in Caricophona in a different setting is nice to see.
In some ways Veloice is less proactive in Amongst Us but still feels very in-character of her. The webcomic would end pretty quick if Veloice were to get-to-the-point with Blackbird after all (granted with how we see them in the future together at the start of the webcomic it’s not like they have to be in a hurry anyways).
Seeing a wlw / slice of life set in a college setting rather than a high school setting is extremely welcome. Please, more of this.
Kiss it Goodbye
Available on Webtoons
Slice of Life high-school beginnings of wlw romance. The artstyle is good, the characters are lovely. We know canonically that they end up together (as the webcomic starts with them in the future where they are a couple, as they begin to weave the story to their curious friends wanting to know how their romance came to be).
It’s not an unwelcome Slice of Life.
BONUS / HONORABLE MENTIONS
Mokepon
Available on h0lyhandgrenade’s website
I have honestly not read this one in a while and dropped it like, several years ago, but it was interesting and is still ongoing, so I had to mention it. Set in the Pokemon universe, it stars the main character who has been thrown into the pokemon trainer career while absolutely wanting nothing to do with it. Ends up becoming a rocket grunt which is an interesting change of perspective from many pokemon fancomics. It has old-nuzelocke energy though it is not a Nuzelocke. Be prepared for the brutality as you cry for the pokemon (especially his pikachu). The undying loyalty of his Charmander as he himself struggles with his position as a trainer/grunt is interesting. He is definitely not the usual pokemon trainer protag you’re used to.
Seven Miles Down
Available on Webtoons
A completed oneshot psychological horror where a girl takes her submarine to the deepest unventured oceanic trench in the world. Tragic end, but horrors can be like that. The psychological nature of the horror is an interesting angle. The rounded cute style may throw you off but it works.
UnDivine
Availabe on its own website via hiveworkscomics
This comic has since been cancelled from continuation, but is the webcomic to set me off in making this list, so it will still be mentioned in memory/tribute, and is the grand example of why you should interact with the webcomics you read as well as share them; there is a good chance they will not hold on their own without fan interaction and traction. Excuse me as I just use two full-on pages cause I’m wearing out on this list and browsing through tons and tons of pages for highlights wears a peep out.
Modern-set religious fantasy on an island where local their religion may be more than it seems. Stars a boy named Daniel, and Esther the Demon girl. From what can be gleaned the Demongirl knew the “god” of the island’s religion and was double crossed, so has a bone to pick with them and their “angelic” entourage now that she’s free when she got accidentally summoned by Daniel.
This webcomic loves its use of blood, but your grow used to it after a point. The setting is interesting, and its also cool to see how the “angels” are far from the usual “pretty human-like” in their true form and are instead more monstrous than you could say even the Demon Esther is.
A lot of what makes this comic interesting, outside of the “revenge against a god” main plot going on, is how messy the characters can be.
Daniel, Esther, and the one angel named Manual are all pretty interesting in how they interact with their roles that they’ve been put in and how they react to others, and are all very morally grey complex characters.
Daniel is an angst machine who tends to really wear himself out (though how he’s positioned/pressured by the world doesn’t help) and shoot himself in the foot a lot, and that’s even before Esther “turns” him into her lil monstrous pawn, not something you commonly see in main characters from the get-go.
Esther (the tall blondie) while being a Demon ready to get her vengeance on is in many ways naïve/childlike despite her powerful nature, and despite using Daniel as her pawn is shown to grow to have feelings/care for Daniel which is very interesting for “The Contracted Devil” position.
Manual…. We haven’t gotten to see a lot but it’s clear he’s meant to be the angelic hero position but its clear he does not like the position, and he also has a thing for a human woman named Rosamaria but we have not gotten to see why that’s the case.
This webcomic didn’t get the traction it needed to keep going, so was recently cancelled by the artist.
