Hello Tapas! (Looking for recommendations.)

Hello Tapas folks!

As I begin to approach starting my first attempt at a webcomic (Pending successful completion of the detailed outline, a fantasy set in the Late Stone Age), I signed up here to see what people are up to and say hello! So, hello!

These threads have consistently been a super cool resource for info and advice regarding webcomics (and comics in general really!) for me over the first six months or so of my comic making journey…

Now I have an account, I can ask my own questions!

Since I'm new here, I wanna ask:

What are your favourite comics on Tapas that I should consider checking out for inspiration? Cool art, cool stories, whatever! I'm a big lover of fantasy stuff, but really recommendations of all sorts are welcome. : )

Also any particularly useful threads I should keep an eye on over on these forums!

That's all!

I’m afraid I often don’t claim any comics on this site as inspiration. If anything, I often claim inspiration from comics which have been officially published or classical literature, such as Virgil’s Aeneid, Homer’s Iliad, Kenneth Grahame’s Wind in the Willows, and others.

I do, however, recommend these to any newcomers to the site:

Hey, thank you so much for the recommendations!

I've been trying to read officially published stuff broadly (both comics and books) to get inspiration and learn but thought it'd be nice, since I want to post my work on Tapas, to find some stuff I enjoyed here, too.

These have all three! Cool art, cool stories, and fantasy stuff!
