This comic has amazing art, has some cool stuff building up, and for some reason has less than 50 subscribers and absolutely should be featured or something because it’s clear it got buried :sweat_smile:

Definitely has great art, and is able to cover a wide range of topics while still remaining a very personal story from a perspective that I haven't seen elsewhere!

I'd like to nominate Dark Bytes. Its a well written sci-fi anthology for when you don't want to commit to a full novel. Episodes cover a wide range of genre topics but are presented in a fresh and unique way.

One of my favorite comics on here is Midnight Furies. It has such a fun and unique art style, full of action and gesture and it translates so well into a sports comic--Which PS, how many sports comics are on Tapas? Like barely any? Anyway it's a wonderful magical basketball tournament that only appears at night in the inner city, and it's just a blast to read. I love this comic.

Picking just one is tough but I gotta say @vworksart's comic Powernote!
More than meets the episode requirement and has a really fun story, lots of action and I love the characters especially Aria. I actually binged it recently to catch up to recent updates and I'd say where it's at is a good chance to jump in.

Stick n Poke is a skillfully drawn comic with easy to read paneling and a fun, compelling story about a trans girl who is on the road with her favorite band. It's cute, it's sexy, it's got a great cast and it's second chapter is due to start up within the next month or so!

Urban fantasy take on the Arthurian legend, with all the character-driven drama that goes with it.
Love the colorful action scenes and seamless wordbuilding. Going places. Fun and exciting places.

There's honestly too many I want to recommend! :smiley:

I'll start with @CodeMonkeyArts 's novel first! I love how the story mixes the idea of seven sins with superheroes, and yet it's very down-to-earth with real issues that plague each character. The fact that each chapter has a piece of art that depicts a scene from it only makes it more attractive! :wink:

Wow, I opened this thread thinking about suggesting your work only to be disappointed because it needed to be 10 episodes... And I see you mentioning me. THANK YOU, friend, really.

Seeing that the thread is not yet closed, maybe cause the total number has not reached 45 yet, I would still love to make a suggestion.

Olga McArrow's "Tales from the Afterworld" is an anthology that merges speculative science-fiction, mythology, mystery and fantasy in truly beautiful tales and short stories that remind me of the great minds like Gene Wolfe or Ursula K. Le Guin.

Ahh I do hope this is still open because I'm such a fan of

It's a self discovery story about secrets and how sometimes it's really none of your business to know someone else's. The art and writing are phenomenal, you can really tell they were given great care and love, the story is right now at it's absolute prime moments of story climax, and like? It's criminally underrated with just barely over 100 subs. Come on.

This is an amazing comic! It's focused primarily on LGBTQ+ issues, particularly those faced by young people either from school, or from outside adults. It has adorable art, and it provides so many important pieces of information. It's relatable to members of the queer community, and informative to those who aren't, while still being entertaining to all!

This one's super underappreciated and deserves a chance at way more attention (It has 33 episodes since jan6 2020, 1.7k views, and 24 subscribers). It's about a bunch of private(?) school girls suddenly becoming magical girls one by one, while completely unsure of how to use their powers with no guidance. Thus it has a very unique decompressed storytelling.

The way Batichi draws motion is really lovely, there's a lot of mystery and contemplative scenes I enjoy. It also updates consistently. (edited to be more clear why I like it :smiley: !)

Oooh this is great, I've been following a fairly new one that deserves some love.

The art is fun and charming, the characters make me laugh, and it's got a great, dark sense of humor with Victorian aesthetics. I'm very curious to see where it goes, and it definitely falls under the category of an undiscovered gem that stands out as something fresh!

EDIT: I guess I should add it is a story about graverobbing so there are some corpses flying around, but nothing I'd consider "excessive gore" in what's out so far.
