So once upon a time a not so long time ago I used to post to Tapas(tic), namely two slice of life comics: Foxtales2 and Gekkering until I stopped (save for a few sporadic updates every blue moon or so.

That said I'd actually like to come back to it but the thing is looking at how my intentions for each comic has changed the two separate titles are....redundant

At first my idea was that Foxtales would be exclusively focused on my ocs and my creation process as i worked on building out my comics universe and each character/s story while Gekkering would be about my normal day to day life sprinkled in with shower thoughts or random ideas i found funny. But now looking back on it I feel like it'd be easier to just compress the two into one comic that covers day to day slice of life stuff along with comic creation reflections and a few of the same meta interactions with my ocs that I'd planned on sprinkling into the first comic.

My issue however isn't about this decision, I've kinda been sold on it from the get go after it came to mind, but what I'm torn on is what to do with the name. I really like Gekkering since from it's conception the point was for it to be a play on the fox theme in my "branding" and it's just a fun word in general. But at the same time Foxtales was my flagship comic so letting the name go feels ...painful in a sense, like letting go a core part of myself or something I've held onto for a long time

I've considered putting the two together but I'm not sure if it flows so I'm asking for community input of which you think sounds better or at least would be easier to search for

  • "Foxtales"
  • "Gekkering"
  • "Foxtales & Gekkering"

If anything I don't think I'd mind dropping Foxtales and leaving it to the past while I adapt to making Gekkering the main title (apart from like all the other comics I'm working on) plus there aren't many other works in general that have that name as opposed to Foxtales (which there's a TON)
