Stress relief, and also to practice drawing. And also becaus I always wanted to do a webcomic lol.
Let's see if I can state this in as few a words as possible XD
The characters in Hybridor have been in development for YEARS, as fun little roleplay characters I'd use for rping with friends online. They use to be Sonic FC's (mostly). But then one day I touched bases with an old dear friend of mine, and over the course of a year and some months, we Rp'ed a story that I fell in love with. I loved it so much that I wanted to make it a comic. But to make it have some sort of sense (and to keep it from being a typical FC fest), the characters needed a visual redesign and some world-building groundwork made. So thus I began making the first Era of Hybridor (Era II is the actual story).
Me and my old friend (who's now my boyfriend and happily have been so for a while) are now co-making this project. We both love it and feel it's cool enough that others will enjoy reading it as much as we do. It might not be the most original of concepts at face-value, but I feel there's enough twists and rarely touched upon concepts in it that by the end of it, people will feel fulfilled, thought-provoked, and glad to have experienced our little slice of fantasy.
TL:DR Came for the fun rping, stayed for the passion.
This is a comic I've posted on DA for a bit. I have an older version, but this is the revision in order to add more to the story. Here's the summary premise
When she was 10, she lost her mother to violence.
A year later, she lost her brother to it as well.
And she ran.
That was 8 years ago. And a lot changes in 8 years.
With the help of dark magic, a psychic, and a malicious sorceress, Victoria Jackson entered the dark, winded path of hunting down each and every one responsible for ruining and stealing the two people she loved the most in the world.
But the road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and her lust for revenge doesn't come without spiraling into madness.
The premise is about a young woman named Victoria Jackson who had lived with her mother and brother in the Chicagoan public housing in the 70s. And the community there wasn't good: a lot of it was ran by gangs and mobsters, and her mother got mixed with the wrong crowd.
This same crowd took her mother away too young and separated her from her brother. Victoria barely made it out herself, but she was filled with revenge and rage and shame because, even as a child, she wanted to be strong enough to stop it. And she just wasn't.
A year later, she comes into contact with a psychic who has the ability to grant her the powers she needs to get her revenge. But these powers are demonic and dangerous, and it's not going to be a smooth sail for Victoria. But the young girl still took that deal, because she wanted to be stronger.
Now it's the 80s, and Victoria is out for blood, hunting down the five people intentionally responsible.
I think the reason I tell this story because I'm a sucker for family-valued stories. Despite this story being as dark as it is (and it is dark, rated MA), the whole idea is that Victoria wants revenge. She wasn't able to do anything when she was younger, but now she has the power to do that. And the only thing running in her mind is the need to avenge her family. And she loved her family, and they loved her. Hell, the reason she got away was because her brother helped her get away (at the expense of his own freedom).
And well, maybe this story would be a metaphor for those who are stuck in similar situations and feel weak for not being able to get out of them. Like...there are some things that are beyond our control, and sometimes, shit goes south. And we're not able to change them immediately, no matter how much we want to. And yet, we want that strength to change our fate and not let people do us wrong.
Victoria might not have gotten that strength without sacrificing something, but she still got it. And I think that adds something to her character and to her motivation.
I felt the exact same way when I started although another reason for me to keep on going is that I feel like I owe it to them to finish their story. I mean who else is going to?
I have a strong sentimental connection to them all that I just can't ignore.

Actually in the process of re-writing mine, but I'll share mine too:
I've been drawing comics since primary school. It was fun to show people and creating characters/worlds etc. was just so fun to get lost in.
It was a few years ago when I got back into it again and just thought 'Hey, why not make it about fighting games?' There's a lot of potential in it with e-sports on the rise and loads of topics to explore.
The process of writing so far has been a massive voyage of self-improvement. The challenges posed in creating a comic like plot, character, scheduling, marketing, research etc. can all be applied to daily life too.
I one day hope to be a part of (or even start!) the rise of fighting-game comics/manga.

A long time ago, like some others I've seen here, I made Sonic FC's that became my intro-characters for roleplaying online. I had a fun time and met new friends while using these characters to just make stories. But they we're always using Sonic material.
Fast forward a few years, and my fandom for the Sonic has dwindled. But my FC's had evolved to being somewhat their own thing, outside of their designs. I had created some new characters for fun on other projects, but collectively, I just had a bunch of characters with loose backgrounds that were rooted in more popular franchises.
One day, I reconnected with an old talented rper, and we made Hybridor, a fun rp that started as a 'what if' one shot but then quickly bloomed into a huge story that I fell in love with. By the end of it, I knew I wanted to share it's story visually, but to make it it's best, I knew I had to redesign my characters and do some tweets. And now here we are. Hybridor now has characters that are rooted in nothing but my own work, a world that is all my own, and has a story and characters that I love so much that I wanna share it with the world.
TL:DR It's a rp story I made with someone else that I loved so much, that I wanted to turn it into a comic.
Um... People have deep, sentimental, and thoughtful reasons here but for me... I don't know? I just write it? 
I just want to know what people think about it.
This actually kind of my experiment story, its concept has been standing the longest but kept being rewritten and reformatted that only some of the old things stay. Karana means endeavor in ancient language, so maybe it is it.
Garden Variety started purely as a way to escape my retail job. At the time, I was following a certain artist who made his living doing purely NSFW stuff, and I thought I could do that as well. I couldn't. The artwork was bad, the writing was bad, my heart wasn't in it, and I felt like a total sellout. Plus I thought back to all the other things that inspired me over the years, and I just wanted to make something ANYONE could enjoy. The characters grew, I got attached to them, and I eventually wanted to share their stories with anyone who would listen. That brings us to the present, and things are just getting better and better.
I wanted to get the ideas festering in my head on paper, and hope that my words can make at least one person's heart.
Mine is actually an autobiography converted into a fantasy comic as I have a hard time expressing many issues that I experienced in my life in words
I tried to write fantasy when I was at school and university. Then I didn’t write for 10 years, because I didn’t have time (I worked a lot, studied, opened my own company). All this time I wrote stories in my head, but I did not write them down.
And then I had a depression. After several months spent at home without work, I suddenly remembered my old hobby and decided to write a new story. So this particular novel began as self-therapy.
This story has autobiographical elements. For example, I had a social phobia that became very strong while I was in school.
Now, at the same time, I am writing a few more stories in different genres: dark fantasy, cyberpunk and a script for a fantasy romantic comic.
I lay the blame for my series on Hyperdimension Neptunia and its sequels being terrible and getting worse with each new installment. Contempt as it turns out is a great motivator if used correctly. I hated HATED the overall lackluster storytelling in what could have been a more interesting series. I took one character I particularly liked took a good hard look at her and then ripped her guts out using a few of the bits I liked to create a new character and the series just kinda built up around it over time until I was ready to start telling stories with it.
Granted the final product is so radically different you'd never guess that's where it started but that's why inspiration is the start of creation and not the end. I worked on this behind the scene for YEARS developing the ideas and reworking things I didn't like. Then I conceived and began to craft a story line I could actually be proud of and despite a rough start i think I'm getting there.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
I'm telling my story to find out how much I can improve my art skills. Improving my art skills includes improving discipline, social skills, art work, consistency, venting, and sharing information.
Just for fun. I'm really fond of all these action movies/TV shows and always wanted to have my own, with my own character, setting, plot and this all things. And drawing comic is easiest/cheapest way to realize it, that's why i'm here 
i'm not sure if i've answered before but partly because i want to tell the stories that have been locked in my head forever and to hopefully inspire or at least entertain folks with those stories. i've always loved stories about life and adventure and exploring other worlds and i hope people can find that in some of the things that i create to be able to see and experience worlds both similar and vastly different from our/their own. it'd definitely be cool to see my comics becoming something else like a movie or a game but i'm also happy if they remain as what they were originally so long as i and those i share it with can enjoy and be happy with it 
I like telling stories because I feel it´s the only way I can express myself in a deeper way. Although I only have one series at the moment (https://tapas.io/series/Sarahs-Plant1), some of the situations that the comic has or is going to have are situations inspired in my real life, my ideas, my influences by other media, etc. Another reason I tell stories is because I want to create things like the ones that inspire me (a lot of movies, books, comics, and even music). Also, drawing and thinking in stories helps me to relax me and be in my own world for a couple hours.
So that my stories live outside my own mind, I want to give them and my characters an opportunity to have a real life. I am a new author but i create since i was a kid. I think those creations deserve to be known. Here is my first work. It is only starting but i am willing to receive and give help to everyone. Subs or comments or even exchange of ideas. I love to work in colaborative way too and i am preparing a Sci Fy book with an american friend from here. Cheers!!
