Turns out I completely forgot to schedule this week’s update on the site, omg D: sooo… a little late, but here we go! 😀
Comment
And after what feels like a century or two… have another webcomic recommendation! ^_^
Blood of the Taken by Sian Mandrake
Summary (copy-pasted from the site): Theo is a 500 year old Vampire who wants nothing more than to replace her lost brood. After all, a home is nothing without a family. As Theo stalks a small town in Western Massachusetts she becomes obsessed with a man named Liam and his best friend, Ed. With a Mole Cricket companion and driving a 1950’s VW Beetle, Theo is the sweet little old grandma that Nosferatu never had.
Warnings: blood, gore, cursing, profanity, abuse, physical & psychical violence, mental health topics.

Why I love it: see, when I rant about how Tapas is full of hidden gems and downright professional works that get constantly ignored, THIS is exactly the kind of work I’m talking about. Blood of the Taken is a beautifully drawn comic, with incredible dark and gritty atmospheres, great character designs, a compelling story and a wonderful female lead that has absolutely nothing to do with your typical “sexy vampire” that you often find in horror stories. Theo is definitely -not- a sexy girl, she’s more of a modern age Nosferatu with her pointy teeth, bald head, ghost-white skin and some rather… interesting fashion choices :’D the kind of stuff she does is truly awful, but her wit and overall personality never fail to crack me up and I can definitely tell that she cares about her new family… even though her “children” may not quite agree with it XD seriously, the overall quality of the whole work is amazing and totally feels like something you’d find in a comic shop. If you’re not scared of some blood/gore (which definitely marks it as a horror comic, but not downright splatter, at least so far), I totally recommend giving it a go 😀
Recommended if you like: dark and gritty atmospheres, dark humor, great character design, professional quality artwork and storytelling.
To celebrate, here’s a little pic 😀
Lots of characters have yet to be introduced into the story, so for now you’re only getting Aaron and Jorn, buuuut… expect to see more in the future ^_^
Stay safe, everyone!
Slowly rebuilding my buffer for the comic.
Also ridiculously proud of how this panel turned out 😀 dat grumpy stare <3
Been a while since the last time I played Among Us and this meme was actually made all the way back in September, but I don’t think I ever posted it here 😀 the original version had pretty much all the characters of The Emergency Coven in it, but I figured I’d better reduce it to characters that actually made an appearance and/or had some lines in the comic so far to make it less confusing.
Can you guess who’s who? 😀
(note: one of them might be a little harder to guess ‘cos technically we haven’t seen their face yet, but there’s… huh… a little hint hidden in the meme? :’D)
Aaaand… we’re back! 😀
Today I bring you another webcomic recommendation:
