haha this feels so weird to write xDDD

Opposite:
Andrew isn't a high school student and he doesn't have a sleep disorder so he ALWAYS knows when he is awake and he is never tired ever. There isn't a mysterious stranger who is stalking him and worming his way into his life/dreams because Andrew NEVER has nightmares. There are no shadowy indiscernible monsters invading the town and there is only good weather on the way.

Original:
Andrew is a high school student who has Narcolepsy with Cataplexy. Sometimes he has trouble discerning when he is awake and dreaming if he doesn't get enough sleep. Every night a mysterious stranger arrives and he finds this starts affecting what happens in his nightmares. There are rumors that shadowy, indiscernible monsters are invading his town and the weather reports that a massive storm is on the way.

hmmmm make of that what you will... I found it harder to put it BACK into the original once I had written it backwards
!

You can find my comic, In The Woods Somewhere, here!
IN THE WOODS SOMEWHERE

[saffasas]

OPPOSITE: This Blessed Cat is about a super independent and go-getting girl with no money whose monetary situation will not be at all affected by whether or not she manages to kill a cat that no one who’s related to her cares about. (This is fun but so hard to do! :L)

ORIGINAL:

[jamontoast98]

My comic is definitely NOT about fighting games, there is no interesting main character and it doesn't even have a tournament arc. You should definitely NOT read it, especially if you HATE fighting games.

[BrambleberrySquirrel]

This is fun!

Opposite: Goji the deer can't stand his dog nemesis Ember. A complete asshole who gives bikes away to the poor is about to show up and make everyone's lives easier and less confusing. This comic never updates on Sundays, don't even think about it!

Original: Goji the deer has a big crush on his oblivious cat coworker Ember. A surprisingly charming bike thief is about to make things a lot more complicated. Updates every Sunday.

I am also partnering with a friend to start translating the comic into Spanish as well, so far episode 1 is out.

Original:
(Read from right to left!) In the mid 14th Century, the Black Death infected millions of people, creatures and spirits across Europe. Elizabeth is a talented witch who tries to learn magic to help save this magical continent. Although, she must fight tooth and nail to obtain this knowledge

Opposite:
(Read from left to right!) In the mid 14th Century, the White Life saved millions of people, creatures and spirits across Europe. Elizabeth is a useless witch who doesn't try to learn magic to help kill this magical continent. Although, she doesn't fight at all to obtain this knowledge.

Lmao what did I just type

Nevermore | Tapas

[Phantomlight]

This had me laughing xD All these opposite versions are fun/funny to read xD

[ReneVergence]

Original:
For over two hundred years, Jümor and Melkambria have been bound together in a state of war. The fate of these nations lies with the half-Melkambrian General of Jümor, Kovreil Veisslok — an elite swordsman and sorcerer with a fiery temper. This grave task is made even more difficult when he awakens in the middle of nowhere and realizes his entire country believes he’s dead.

Opposite:
For less than negative two hundred years, Melkambria and Jümor have been split apart by peace. The past of every other nation has nothing to do with the non-Melkambrian Cadet of Melkambria, Kovreil Veisslok — an amateur, magicless archer with the most serene disposition you've ever seen. This incredibly pleasant task is made much easier when he goes to sleep in the capital city, and he's completely oblivious to the fact that no one believes he's alive.

I honestly can't tell if this makes any sense. Sorry, this definitely makes sense!

Kingdom Come | Tapas

[ji.mood]

Oo this is interesting. I like this idea. I'll try my hardest lol.

Mina, who is not the chairwoman of Brigerfort cosmetics. Jay, a terrible doctor who never works. Both of them had died a great, peaceful death. They wake up to be the same genders?!

Now Mina must find out how to put their saviours behind freedom and Jay must find out how he lived. They must also find a way to get back to their duppelgangers bodies, if that's not possible. Now this will be an easy journey.

Original:
Mina, the next chairwoman of Bridgerfort Cosmetics. Jay, a workaholic doctor. Both of them had died a terrible death. They wake up to be switched genders?

Now Mina must find out how to put their murderer behind bars and Jay must find out how he died. They must also find a way of getting back to their original bodies, if that's even possible. Now this will be a tricky journey.

my synopsis is like four words, man, I can't even do this properly

but I guess it could go like this:
"Everything is fine and mundane. Everyone loves gypsies"

The Ghoul | Tapas

[Iridium]

Hm... Lemme give it a try:

Opposite:

From Farsi/ Persian meaning "to destroy, to unmake or to copy", Menmar doesn't tell the story of Enihdan, a crone dying in a village years away from any kind of political reformation, whose life is taken by Meehar, a being whose existence seemed to belong anywhere but unhuman myths and elderly tales. They live separate lives and separate factions and decide to sabotage each other as they deal with unhuman Conformations and mundane journeys to cover up seven mundane daggers which might destroy the entire overpopulated race of Djinns.

Original:

From Farsi/ Persian, meaning "to build, to make or to create", Menmar tells the story of Nadhine, a maiden living in an empire in the brink of a political revolution, whose life is saved by Raheem, a being whose existence seemed to belong only to human myths and children's tales. Together they join forces and decide to help each other in dealing with a human Revolution and a mystical journey to uncover seven magical daggers which might be able to save the entire race of Djinns from extinction.

Stella and Boris had a totally normal death, what's with dying with an angel, a super-weak boy and an astrology fanatic. Boris hates it. Stella, not so much. -UPDATES NEVER-

SUPERSTELLAR! | Tapas

[karamesser]

Opposite: The world was full of superheroes when it gradually began to see people lose their powers. Far away from this event, four strangers lost theirs and distanced themselves from a long-time associate whose history was well-known to everyone. Staying where they were, they also distanced themselves from three others, becoming criminals. However, one is known to be a hero...

Original: The world was mundane and without power when people suddenly began to develop super powers. At the epicenter of this event, four friends/family likewise developed powers and met a stranger whose past was unknown, even to themselves. Whisked away to another world, this group picked up two more individuals and a third when returning, soon becoming superheroes. However, one of them is actually a murderer, hiding in the ranks of the team...

The Raven and The Skull is a kid friendly story about the journeys of a mature warrior and her joyful childlike companion through a colorful land full of joy. The comic has wonderful background art.

The Raven and The Skull

[hjpetersonauthor]

Opposite:
It's been a few months since Dutch was just kind of vibing with Dr. Franz Teudt, and he really just wants to give him a fruit basket for the fantastic time he had while he was a foreign exchange soldier. His chance comes with Project: Achilles, a program to train ordinary people to ask people to nicely stop being jerks. He really gets along with them pretty well, and things are just getting better and better in Europe, so he has pretty high hopes.

Real:
It's been a few months since Dutch escaped the lab of Dr. Franz Teudt, and he's desperate to kill the man who performed medical experiments on him as a POW. His chance comes in the form of Project: Achilles, a program intended to train super humans to be an elite unit in the army. He's not exactly impressed with his crop of candidates, but as things worsen across the Atlantic, it becomes clear that they're the best chance they've got against Germany's growing army of super soldiers.

Project: Achilles | Tapas

[AnonymousHouseCat]

Not sure if I'm doing this right, but I thought that focusing more on the opposite concept than exact words could be interesting!:

Opposite: In a world where necromancy (as in bringing people back to life with dark magic) isn't a recognized government job, a man who is the first in his family to be a necromancer gives up on trying to run the national necromancy headquarters in the thriving dessert resort town of Ruby Fields. Meanwhile, his highly competent boss makes enemies with a guy who is definitely alive, but suffers from Cotard's delusion (a mental disorder that causes you to believe you are dead or don't exist).

Original: In a world where grim-reaping is a government job, a descendent of the first grim reaper tries to run a local reaping branch in the declining former resort town of Sapphire Bay. Meanwhile, her most troublesome employee makes a new friend who is...possibly dead?

Sapphire Bay Reaper Company | Tapas

[arbiterswake]

Sounds fun, let me give it a shot.

Opposite:

The wells that don't control the flow of magic throughout the land of Pharlahaim have mysteriously been opened by a weak spell in a not well known event, the Great Castigation. This has created a balance of power between humans and other races. Wars have ended between once rivaled nations. Disease and plague avoid cities and villages.

Keyary, a hearty and healthy boy, is thrown into this bright new world after his village, Raegone, is spared by an enemy militia. The first thing he was told to do is avoid Valase, the enslaved city of magic and dragons, to find the source of his vitality.

However, everyone who has ventured to the city since the Great Castigation has always returned. Are dragons, the guardians of these magical wells, to thank or is there a more innocent reason?

Original:

The wells that control the flow of magic throughout the land of Pharlahaim have mysteriously been sealed by a powerful spell in an event known as the Great Castigation. This has created an imbalance of power between humans and other races. Wars have broken out between once allied nations. Disease and plague tear through cities and villages.

Keyary, a frail and sickly girl, is thrown into this dark new world after her village, Raegone, is attacked by an enemy militia. The last thing she was told to do is reach Valase, the free city of magic and dragons, to find the cure for her ailment.

However, no one who has ventured to the city since the Great Castigation has ever returned. Are dragons, the guardians of these magical wells, to blame or is there a more sinister reason?

EDIT:
THIS MAKE MY STORY SOUND SO UPLIFTING, HELP!

Arbiter's Wake | Tapas

[TheOddFungi]

I hope I did this right Oh goodness.

Opposite:
Avoid the journey of a boy from Shinjuku, Japan not known as the victim Red Dragon. He clearly ends up in California in the disregard of the McRae family, able to forget how he didn't arrive and able to not return to Japan.

Will he be unable to miss forgiveness and avoid hate?
Or is the light within less than a dream?

Original:
Follow the journey of a boy from Shinjuku, Japan known as the infamous assassin Red Dragon. He mysteriously ends up in California in the care of the McRae family, unable to remember how he got there and unable to return to Japan.

Will he be able to find forgiveness and allow love in?
Or is the darkness within more than just a nightmare?
