Ok so you guys probably dont know but i looove webcomics and I follow a lot and I figured i should promote them cause they're all awesome and beautiful and i need to share c:

These are all ongoing comics btw, unless i say otherwise. I'll also update this list if I find more comics I like c: Feel free to suggest some too, I'm always looking!

Thunderpaw
This is how you animate a comic. This it it, THis it it look no further than this comic about dogs trying to go home. just read it ok
So I just heard of this one from pyme It is literally so amazing I cant even describe. Beautiful colors and atmosphere and animation incorporated into the pages.. basically the best webcomic. Don't worry it's not some Warriors fanfic or smthing (not knocking Warriors but I never really got into it), it's totally original. Also there's some flashing colors so I should probably include a seizure warning.. but if you can deal with those it is seriously so cool how they use them and the long floaty speech bubbles i adore and ok I'll stop now

Stand Still Stay Silent
The apocalypse like you've never seen! A shetload of pages! Really nice colors and also, cats and cool panels!
BEautiful artwork, I cannot stress enough how much I adore the landscapes and colors, and five pages a week??? I think that's the highest I've ever seen o.o The art is seriously amazing, and the characters and plot are cool too, and it's apocalyptic, so if you like that kind of stuff c: Also mages and magic and glowy blue 8D Just a warning that since there's so many pages a week it can be hard to keep up, but thats they great thing about the internet is its always accessible c:

Blindsprings
Spirits and magicians, and coming back after 300 timeless years in a forest. Political rivalry and angst ensue.
The style and colors are so nice and gahh idk it's just really cute c: Not going to lie, it does take a bit to get going, but each page is beautiful so there's really no loss there. Has to do with myths and spirits and magic (and in a way politics lol). Also Tammy's glorious flowing mane is always a plus

Namesake
All your childhood stories are about real people in real places. And those places are still open (kinda). Wizard of Oz and the skeleton key.
I loooove the premise of this comic, it is so well thought out aahh i can't wait to figure it all out :'D It basically has to do with fairytales/classic children's stories.. i don't want say too much for spoilers' sake, but I really love all the thought that went into it c: Also the characters are adorable

Stop Kissing My Sister
Comic by TotemEye on dA, but it updates quicker on tapastic
Fishface and getting lost (or left) in the woods. Growing up in said woods with a strange guy named John.
Not sure what the title has to do with anything so far, but this comic is hilarious. I mean, its actually pretty dark and there are demons and witchunts involved, but the characters make this comic. The loveable clueless and the loveable ruthless (lol did i just rhyme xD) main characters are just... both great in their own way. Also the facial expressions are super good c:

Raccoon Brothers
They just want to get out of jail. I mean, what are the chances that two groups will rob the same store at the same time?
Another one by TotemEye, this one's considerably shorter as of now but the characters again make this one: basically two criminals who you can't help but love are trying to get out of jail. I also really love the style here, it's a bit different than SKMS and i really love it as well <3

Edit 3/14:Prague Race!
Don't buy posters from creepy stores. You might end up traveling to another world. My taglines suck I know. Also, fishsticks
I just started and caught up with it, it does take a bit to get going but then it gets super cool omg. I love the worldbuilding- it's amaing so far, and im sure it will only get better. And all the creativity and the characters and designs and ugh its really good <33 Edit: trans character!!! Aaah I just love this comic more and more, the "reveal" was super tactful. Also the style is sooo nice

edit 3/18: how could I forget Hemlock by mildtarantula!!
A witch and her familiar. And three brothers and a frog with three eyes. Or something.
The style is so nice and it's inked so it's a bit different than most comics I read, and it's amazing. Also witches and spells and stuff, i love the designs and everything. It's currently on an update when possible basis, but it's seriously worth waiting for each page c:

Edit 5/5: Paranatural!!!
Comic about things that are not... natural. (read: ghosts! things! dont want to spoil it!)
This comic takes a few pages to get to color, but it becomes absolutely hilarious, the facial expression expression omg. The plot is also really good and I like the worldbuilding and characters and everything, I would recommend it strongly! Go read it pls it's great

Edit 5/9: June
Has to do with the Outlander and a boy who wears a bag over his head, who's just trying to get home. Confused? That's the point.
It took me a while to decide to add June to the list, but I did and now I have a lot to say about this comic. First, I love it. Second, I'm not sure i recommend it (at least not to everyone). Tw for a bit of gore, and the whole thing is overall kinda creepy and confusing, so if you disassociate or anything probably dont read it. With that out of the way, let me say it is amAzing. Really confusing, but if you can deal with that it becomes clearer near the end. The art is phenomenal, and the story is really interesting imo. It's a finished comic, so don't worry about being cut off haha. It leaves you still a bit muddled at the end but in a good way. I would recommend reading it more than once if you want to figure it out, because it makes much more sense to me the second time around. Anyway, if you don't dislike creepy and disjointed, go read it this instant!!

Edit 10/5: As the Crow Flies
Religious girls' camp and poc main character with a crush on the counselor's daughter :D
actually deals with her race/vs the others so it's really a good And there's another lgbt girlie, I won't spoil! Also, it's drawn all in colored pencil???? How?? It's so great, wow. Realistic fiction (which is a bit of an anomaly for me as most of these comics so far are fantasy or anthropomorphic!)

That's all i can think of right now, but I'm sure more will come to me later. You should really check them out ;D
