love advice from the great duke of hell in webtoon

 

[FullMxtal]

Hazeshift on Tapas is incredibly dark and still remains one of my favorite ongoing webcomics.

Off-White back in its hay day

I really, really love the first half of Saga. I also really like the Thrawn comics.

My favorites out of...

Comic books: Probably the three-issue Doctor Mid-Nite miniseries from 1999, written by Matt Wagner with art by John K. Snyder III. Though I also really love the five-issue miniseries Spider-Man/Doctor Octopus: Year One from 2004, written by Zeb Wells with art by Kaare Andrews. Both very cool standalone origins for very, very cool characters!

Manga: Either Uzumaki by Ito Junji or Fuan No Tane/Seeds of Anxiety by Nakayama Masaaki. Amazing horror manga, one is maybe Ito's most famous long-form horror, while the other is a collection of very short horror, some of it only a page or two, most of it not connected.

Webcomics: The Last Halloween by Abby Howard, hands down! This one isn't even a contest, I just adore it that much. If you still want a second recommendation, though, I really love all of E. M. Carroll's stuff, maybe especially "All Along the Wall" but also "His Face All Red," "The Prince & The Sea," "Out of Skin," "The Hole the Fix Did Make," and one you can only read through her published collection Through the Woods, "The Nesting Place"! (You can find Through the Woods published under the name Emily Carroll.)

! I am always so glad to get somebody into it! Chapter 4 is, as I'm sure you can guess, where things really get started; I remember the ending of Chapter 3 introducing the (self-proclaimed) gods in the hospital and just losing my mind, LOL.

Well i just got done with the story! I’m thinking Mona might be the monstlaughterer. I was so sad to see she’d lost her arm

 

[Lemonsanity]

I know it gets memed a lot but… BOYFRIENDS on WEBTOON

I am almost 100% sure you're right! And it was really sad, and the way she just left... I am really curious to see her again properly, since it's been years and I have some theories that I'd love to have confirmed or denied having to do with her weapon and how she's able to kill monsters now. I also miss the Book 1 characters in general, though I love the new ones! Looking forward to more updates whenever Scarlet Hollow is complete.

I'm really glad you enjoyed reading it! Always feels cool to introduce someone new to this comic

I doubt its well known in todays times, but Spawn

I didn't read that much webtoons nor comics, but my sister specializes in webtoon meanwhile I specialize in comics.

The Interpretation of Shadows is a very new and ongoing comic that LITERALLY keeps you on a cliffhanger every single time, it's pretty dark and has some disturbing imagery sooo-- I WARNED YOU!

my favorite character is Daphne. he's so stupid and proud that it's adorably hilarious--

 

[phantomness]

A cute webcomic I enjoyed was Angel Moxie. It was adorable!

 

[Inland Lighthouse]

The God Complex is an issue I just picked up and so far, it's gravy. Slick art, engaging dialogue, curious story.

 

[formula1]

I’ll never really get over how much I loved (and still do) Matt Fraction’s Hawkeye series.

 

[acatt]

It's not really aged well, which I learnt the hard way when I bought the Omnbius, but Batgirl of Burnside was a seminal comic book for me growing up and I still cherish the memories of reading it and getting super into DC because of it very closely.

It's so good!!! Might have to re-read it now you've reminded me of it

Comic. Saga.

Superhero Comics: A tie between Spider-Man/Doctor Octopus: Year One and the three-issue Doctor Mid-Nite series from 1999, though the New 52 reboot of Shazam! is a solid runner-up for the villains alone, and the mini King Tut arc where Batman and the Riddler team up is phenomenal.

Other Comics: Another tie, this one between the short story collection Through the Woods by E. M. Carroll (published under the name Emily Carroll) and the coming-of-age ghost story Anya's Ghost by Vera Brosgol. That said, as a runner-up I'd also like to mention Rosalie Lightning by Tom Hart; it's definitely not for everyone, since it's an unflinching look at grief and loss, an autobiographical story about the unexpected death of Tom's two-year-old daughter. But it's really honest and beautiful and I'm very glad I read it, even if I'm not sure I could handle re-reading it.

Manga: I absolutely adore the three Fuan no Tane manga by Nakayama Masaaki! They're all anthologies of very short horror stories (anywhere from like 1-8 pages long iirc) that are mostly completely disconnected from each other.

Webcomics: The Last Halloween by Abby Howard. Hands-down. At the moment it's on hiatus so her video game company, Black Tabby Games, can finish the rest of its horror visual novel Scarlet Hollow, and I just can't WAIT until it comes back, but I reread Book 1 every so often just because I love it so much. It's a horror-comedy about the end of the world due to monsters breaking through into the human world on Halloween, and (in Book 1) one 10-year-old girl's reluctant quest to save everything.

...I think my obvious affinity for horror comics comes through here, LOL.

 

[Murdergurl]

I have a decent collection of Conan the Barbarian Comics (and novels). The comics are mostly from the 70s and 80s, but some of the books are from as far back as the 60s.




I'm also a big fan of Judge Dredd, and I own a small trove of the Predator series of comics from the 90s, including the Predator Alien WAR series.

 

[Jigsaw]

I've never been big on comics or webcomics but I remember reading Bastard on webtoon when I was younger, and really enjoying it

The Amulet series
