Peeling Back the Layers
Things are always more complicated than they appear on the surface. These stories delve into the myriad layers of the worlds they exist in.
Everyday Epics - Everyday Epics is about epically quotidian adventures of the many denizens of the continent of the Raised Lands, in the world of Edanh. Featuring responsive comic pages and multi-language dialog.
Foreach - After long days of ghost hunting and family obligations, exorcist-in-training Jasper Mundy finds comfort in video games, playing the perfect hero where love conquers all. But what starts as escapism begins to take on an unexpected gravitas as the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur...
THIS ONE IS SO GOOD!!! the first twist has you like :o ! and then :0 !! and then :O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it scratches the itch in my head that Homestuck used to. I love. all the characters. I love how they're growing and changing and becoming more dimensional as the comic progresses. really great stuff, highly recommend.
