In honor of…… that…… I finally watched the Witch From Mercury prologue.

it’s fine (: I’m fine (: this show will definitely not do anything to hurt me (:

#I am deeply allergic to tv and videos in general #but for cute dysfunctional lesbians I will do many difficult things #including even sometimes watch a 30 minute video #gwitch

they’re not wrong

#I’m not saying webcomics are the reason I figured out my gender #partly because ‘figured out’ implies some sort of conclusion which. no. #my only conclusion is ‘I give up. no gender just vibes’ #but they have helped ground me ever since I gave up on labeling myself #and it’s been fun seeing just how many artists in my age bracket have had gender realizations of their own around the same time as me

SEASON 3 FINAL!

NOTE: […] Green Tea Bitch contains suggestive scenes and references to BDSM, as well as blackmail, homophobia, and one scene referencing attempted csa. If That’s Love, Break It needs a major warning for self harm and emotional abuse, in addition to sexual content, physical abuse, bullying, suicidality, blackmail, and a teacher/student relationship.

there are only 25 webcomics on this list

we just had a tournament about this

you know what to do <3

HEY YOU!

Yeah, you! Are you trans? Do you like reading books? Or watching movies?

Do you like media about trans men/transmasculine characters but don't know where to find it?

That's sooo crazy because I have this little spreadsheet I'm working on where I'm trying to document all media with protagonists/major characters who are FTM or transmasculine.

The spreadsheet currently has 200+ entries spread across the following categories:

Books

Manga

Memoirs and non-fiction

Movies

TV Shows

Graphic novels / Comics

Webcomics

Audio dramas

Books and movies are also sorted by:

Which character is trans (MC, love interest, antagonist, etc)

If the trans character is POC

The trans character's sexuality (Because I saw lots of transhet guys sad about only being able to find gay romances)

If the author/actor is also trans (if we know for sure)

It's free to use, and free to add to as well! Editing permissions are on, and I check on the spreadsheet every now and then to make sure everything is in order and to clean up.

If you know something that isn't on the list, please add it! You don't have to fill in every single column, but fill it to the best of your abilities.

If you don't want to use the big ass long link below, you can also use: bit.ly/FTM-protags

I made this because I want it to be a community resource. So even if you're not a trans guy or transmasculine person, please reblog!

#webcomics with transmasc characters from the tournament that aren't on the list right now: #out of the blue. nasty red dogs. lavender jack. lovebot. court of roses. white noise #and that's not counting anyone who didn't get enough submissions to qualify #I haven't read any of the missing comics so I don't have enough info to properly complete their entries myself #but that is where you all come in

RB with your favourite disabled characters.

I'm starting @disabledcharacters and need a starting point.

Also, looking for members to create edits (one gifset a month) and help with the queue.

Please message me if you are interested.

I read If That’s Love, Break It because of this tournament. The content warnings are there for a very good reason, but if you like stories about fucked-up relationships or the imploding lives of mentally ill overachievers, it has my recommendation.

S3 LOSERS FINAL

NOTE: If That’s Love, Break It needs a major warning for self harm and emotional abuse, in addition to sexual content, physical abuse, bullying, suicidality, blackmail, and a teacher/student relationship. Handsome Girl & Sheltered Girl contains suggestive scenes, as well as some light mistaken-identity consent(?) issues and cisnormative ideas.

#it’s the poisonous allure of ‘fuck everything’ #which is something I fantasized about a lot when I was younger #and my mental health was much worse #but thankfully I was too risk-averse to ever do more than fantasize #I’m in an extremely different place now but I like revisiting it in fiction every once in a while #other tournaments

Well, fuck.

Have You Read This Webcomic

That was me! My blog got nuked! I'm so sorry, y'all! I'm hoping to get my old blogs back, but if not, the sheet of submissions still exists so I can try to find my mods and get back on track! Just... not sure when I will be doing that

I just wanted to let y'all know

#I hope tumblr fixes this! #it was a great resource and it particularly sucks to see it nuked for no apparent reason

This feels like a pretty concise thesis statement for Facing the Sun so far, especially when you contrast it with leaving cognitive error C-06 intentionally unresolved.

Growth is more than just an accumulation of errors, but without the accumulation of errors growth can't exist.

Webcomic List updates:

Moved Aurora from "stuff I want to read" to "reading list"

Added [un]Divine to "finished comics" (with a note that it's since been resurrected on Patreon)

Added Facing The Sun to "stuff I want to read" (I read a bunch of it last year but got distracted and never caught up)

And, by submitters' popular demand, the precise moment that Tedd Understood:

#I still think about this scene on a regular basis #defining character moment #el goonish shive

[wlw-webcomic-bracket]

If you don't mind me asking, how do you pick Tedd's gender on any given part of the comic?

It varies. Sometimes there’s a plot reason, sometimes it’s just vibes.

It can be as simple as “I think Tedd would be feminine right now.”

#I personally am a huge fan of vibe-based gender #tedd Gets my gender more than pretty much any other fictional character #el goonish shive

You keep saying "Build a website" but doesn't that cost money?

It does! Like basically any other profession or hobby there are expenses eventually, and hosting is just another one like the tablet or the bristol board.

Generally my advice is to start out hosting somewhere free like ComicFury, both to see how well you actually like maintaining a long term project and how seriously you want to take it. If it turns out it's important enough to you that you want to turn it into a career or ensure its stability, you find a way to sustain it. In my case, I hosted Kidd Commander on tumblr for the first fifty pages or so, realized how unstable that was and how much it would upset me if they changed their content policies or functionality in ways that would harm my comic (which they have, several times), and started making efforts to drum up enough support to maintain its own site. Every person running a website of any kind went through some form of this process at some point!

If you give it a shot and find you DON'T really care to dump resources into it, if it isn't that big of a deal to you if it goes down with a company's ship one day, then it's probably not worth the trouble or the money! Websites are a lot of work and resources, and while in my opinion it's a good trade not everyone would agree. Maybe you have other places you need to put your money or your time, you have other things that take priority that means you don't elect to drop money on something that's more like a hobby, that's fine. This isn't like, backhanded either; not everyone DOES want to fool with all this, and even if you're into making comics that doesn't mean you also have strong enough feelings about longevity or ownership to want to put in the effort to own your own space.

Whether it's something you want to carve out for yourself is up to you, I can't help y'all with that. A lot of my aim when I bring up hosting is to remind people about the inherent risk they're taking by relying entirely on corporations to house these passion projects that are long term and, frequently, unattractive to the shareholders who will probably gain influence over the corporation during the course of the work. The internet is aggressively centralized, to the point a lot of people have gotten so comfortable with apps and for-profit social media that they trust them with a lot more than they should and aren't even aware there are other options. If it's free, you're the product, and as soon as you stop being profitable they will sweep up everything you've built and send you out empty handed. If that's not alarming to you, by all means set up shop somewhere like Webtoon. Really! But if it is, figure out what your goals are and get to work.

#I don’t have a comic but I do have a (simple) (small) neocities site #you need to learn basic HTML but there are a ton of resources and tutorials #and even premade templates you can copy/paste

Adelaide and the Shooting Star is the best new-to-me webcomic of 2024 and I cannot wait to see where it’s going. Get montage’d (and then go read the comic what are you waiting for seriously it’s so good)!

Also the author is on tumblr!

Obscure Webcomic 2.0 - Round 3-A

adelaide and the shooting star - Ongoing

Adelaide Hartley has found herself in a strange, seaside town called Constance. There's new sights, new places, and new people- people who won't know about how much of a cowardly, awful witch she is.

But after running into Lucy Maxwell, the knight of Constance, the Shooting Star (!), and a cavalcade of sidekicks and villains that follow in her wake, it seems that Adelaide's new life won't be quite as cut and dry as she hopes it'll be.

Whatever happened to Arabella Edwards? What's with that look Will Pollux's always giving her? Will Riley Huynh ever give a straight answer? And what's with that ghost hiding in the corner of her eye...?

He Would Never Notice Me! - Hiatus

body switching shenanigans! Keerati is a high schooler and a boulderer (rocking climbing) who has reached her plateau and can't find a way to improve her skills. One day she wakes up body switched with her classmate Jun. Hijinks ensue as Keerati and Jun bicker about what happened, and to make it all worse, Keerati's best friend Yu has a crush on Jun. On hiatus as the creator has to focus on their real life job :(
