Nonesuch by The Bitsy Artist

This webtoon is creepy, in a good way. Its so spooky and leaves you guessing. Connor and Bridget, the two protagonists, are having relationship issues that stem from, you guessed it, lack of communication and negative hang-ups about what their role is supposed to be. Things get worse for them when their car leaves them stranded in the middle of nowhere and they get separated because in the forest area bunch of copies of them. Dozens! and they are as creepy as they are deadly. And they keep getting smarter. Finding each other and escaping is going to be a challenge.  This webtoon has so many twists and turns and keeps you guessing what's gonna happen next. The two stubborn as hell protagonists each have their own way of seeing the world and figuring our their problems. Connor is methodical, logical while Bridget is tough as nails and determined. I don't want to say too much because this is one webcomic you are going to want to read and discover on your own. Its a horror mystery ...

Going Up by Melissaboo

   3 Episode Review of New Comic.   The first thing was the art style. It's unique style that's different than the standard manhwa or manga art style. I find it adorable, like I'm looking at a 2D poly pocket. It is by far the biggest draw so far and the reason I haven't put it down yet, although first appearance it hasn't caught my attention yet.      I feel for the female protagonist of the romance novel. She's a good soul, doing a great job dog watching and doing the right thing, but these uppity rich types she has too deal with are the kind you want to pour your hot chocolate onto.      The male protagonist at first read is a lazy guy with a rich dad who skates by on good looks with no real goal in life. Not a person I want to read about and I'm hoping there's more to him, because right now he's not endgame material. Honestly, the baker is in like, what, 5 frames and already I'd rather see more of him than rich boy.     ...

The Guy Upstairs

     First 4 episodes and it's got my attention. It's the story of a nosy neighbor, but is she crazy or is she being gaslit. It's difficult to say and that's part of the fun. I felt her anxiety as she labored over whether to call the cops and stick her head in it. I don't know if I would have it in me and she's got worse anxiety than me. I'm curious where this story is going and what the real answer is gonna be. Is it mental or something supernatural? If your a fan of mystery and horror this might be a series to keep on your list.       Been reading some stories where the "kids" don't look like kids but the art gives you the sense of high school. The art is great and the interactions between the three friends is great. There's a B plot where the popular girl sticks with her friend, refusing to go to a party cause her introverted friend, the lead, doesn't want to go. It makes me curious about their past and her motives. It's not as i...

Room of Swords

     Room of Swords is finally ending. It's a webtoon I've been following for quite a while so it's appropriate to tell you why it's worth the read.      What initially drew me into this webtoon was the feel of am 8 bit video game with characters that seemed displaced out of time. The initial premise of the series is very video game-y. Find the boss, take their sword, escape before the omnious timer runs out. And the MUSIC! While season 2 lacked the iconic 8 bit soundtrack that was scattered throughout season 1, by the time you get that far you're already invested. The music is amazing and you can find them all on YouTube. But I'd wait until you get to the actual Boss Fights to hear them.       While it sounds simple, this webtoon will leave your head scratching. Every bit of it is planned out and there is foreshadowing around every corner. Along with actual shadows. This is an action adventure mystery and while the explanations can get ...
