behold!!! PROMOTIONS!!!
Space Pirate was something I came up with when I was 12 after watching Tenchi Muyo all the way through during the days of toonami. Now it's more of a mix of dragonball, naruto and star wars.

Promote. Promote. Promote. Promote!

Talipandas is something I've been thinking about since my first writing "gig" but I was such a lazy ass back then (even now). The reason why I wrote this is because I can't find a reincarnation/transmigration story that fits to my liking so I thought to myself, "Why not just write something that will satisfy you?" and that's how it became this. there's many versions, rough drafts, "X"-ed works but I'm happy with how this turned out. Check it if you want.

Dan was something that I created based on a dream I had. I thought making a webcomic from a dream would be a unique way of storytelling. I was also influenced by one punch man and hunter x hunter and many other animes as well.

Congrats on finishing law applications! That's a great milestone! :smiley:
I like this promotion idea. :wink:

Devil's Triangle was inspired by real life people and families that made me think "What if this relationship was taken to the extreme?" From there, it easily became a murder mystery and I wanted to emphasize different parenting techniques in the novel because too often, parents are portrayed in a (completely) negative light. Add technology into the mix and it shows how parenting has to change in this new era of social media.

Shackles was inspired by the ending of the Hua Mulan (2007) movie! I absolutely loved the struggle between personal desire and wanting what's best for one's country.

Finally, Dark Bytes is a collection of short stories that I've written over the years. In a way, it's my favorite project because I love to touch on different scifi topics and bring it to life in various ways. Also, writing action is so fun! :heart_02:

I used to make comics all the time as a kid, but stopped midway through high school. I always wanted to get back into it, but never had time until after I graduated college. I tried a couple of ideas that I never got past the first few pages. Nothing that I was willing to put online.

Then one day I doodled some random character designs, doodled a few more, and then realized abruptly I'd already come up with personalities and a basic plot for them. It went through a few changes and Rocksteady Mining Co. was the result!

well we are Andrew & Sara ..married couple that love comics & enjoy working on it..we both are full time artists we left our deskjob to achieve our dream & we are living it now ..always been dreaming to be a comic artist for major titles until i started thinking why not dream big ..why not starting to achieve and make my dreams come true or others will hire me to make their dream come to real ..please enjoy our series


I wrote down in my notebook that I wanted to write a story about early 20th century Spiritualism then a random MC popped in my head. After bouncing him around and figuring out what to do with him, I decided he fit best in the story I’m writing now :heart_01:

Why I’m writing it is because Spiritualism has always interested me and while doing research on it, I discovered the formation of the Spiritual churches in New Orleans (and I needed a predominantly black community anyway).

Moreover, I aim to add as much diversity in my stories as possible and write stories that I don’t see a lot on tapas (you gotta search high and low for black queer characters) so I was like, I’ll do it! And I somehow love writing historical fiction so :sweat_02:

The Last Goddess came from my love all things mythological. My reason for writing it was two-fold. One, I absolutely adored the idea of making my own original pantheon with a mix of multiple cultures and creating a whole new world. :blush: Secondly, when I started this book, I had reached a point in my reading life where I was like, "WHY IS EVERYTHING A SERIES!?!?! Can't there be just one novel for once??" :confounded: So, I decided to make a story that will only be one novel! As of now, I have no intention of making a sequel. So, if anyone is looking for a single novel, please feel free to check out The Last Goddess! :grin:

Tempest, on the other hand, is a series I have planned for a long time. I started it a few years back with the intention of making my own superhero story! :smile: Being a lover of most things superhero, I couldn't help but make up a story about a hardcore superhero fangirl who mysteriously gets powers from a hidden lab. It wasn't so much about making an original tale (although, I hope it is!), but rather an homage to the stories I grew up admiring. :blush: If you want to see a story about a quirky college girl trying to figure out her new superpowers, check out Tempest! :grinning:

This is a really cool idea!

So this is a story I wrote a couple years ago and am now editing a bit, and also adding some stuff to. When I originally wrote it, I was dealing with depression and wasn't really feeling like myself. My writing wasn't going well either, mostly because the stories I was writing weren't what I wanted to work on at the time because of my own issues. Then I decided I might as well try writing something new, and fun. Something that was all about the things I love, to see if that could distract me. So I decided to play around with comic book cliches and looking at masked heroes through a regular person's perspective, while throwing in some romance and humor. I ended up having fun with it, and it's a story that really helped me feel better, so it's one I really have a lot of appreciation for.

Wow, it's great how both of your stories became works that you enjoy writing! :slight_smile: I feel like the best works are ones that are unexpected! ^~^

I really like this idea! This is kind of like gushing about why you like your own story!

All Good Things is a story I've been waiting a looong time to draw. The characters were first written in high school in a completely different state to how they are now and with a different plot, but I still had an attachment to them even way back then. The two main characters both have a little bit of myself in them, mostly things that troubled me from back then, that I can articulate now into the plot. Their comfort characters in how they interact, drawing their stupid expressions, and figuring out how they get through stuff. It's just kind of fun across the board, but they still have their problems to get over. After watching a bunch of musicals and drama, I kind of realized the kind of story I want them to be, and I fee like I'm finally getting there.

It's kind of hard to explain exactly, I guess. Just seeing characters that I've had for almost a decade finally do a plot that is very dear to me is just kind magical to me in a way that I can't really pinpoint. Their issues are my issues, and by putting them through some of the things I didn't know how to deal with when I was their age I can see a different perspective entirely.

Finding Meaning in Life
My writer and I are really fascinated with what happens to people that are either so rich, so talented or have things so easy in life, they tend to become aimless with no goals or aspirations. It's interesting because a lot of people aspire to it especially in this day of hype culture and the internet but in getting everything you ever wanted you usually lose your drive to move forward for more, so we decided to make a story about it but through the lens of a shonen/seinen battle manga

I started writing this story in middle school, over a decade ago. It has stuck with me and grown through the years as I have. At first, I just needed an escape and this was one of the stories I created that I would hide in. Now that I'm older, I've developed this story so much and it has been through so much with me that I have to finish it. I've always felt this compulsion to get it out and present it before anyone who would want to read it, because maybe someone who needs it would find a place to hide in it for a while as well.

As for what I love about it...I love how much it has matured over the years. I love that it is a story that is a lot more complex than what it seems and the tropes at play have their own twists. I like to believe that it isn't what people expect because that was my intention, but I don't have enough readers that aren't family or friends to confirm that at this time.

I also love that the romance isn't the typical "bad guy falls for innocent girl and she saves him" trope. Nor is the the female love interest a "damsel in distress". She may enjoy cooking and sewing and isn't as athletic as he is, but she isn't helpless in certain situations. She learns about herself just as much as he learns about himself through the story and grows.

I started writing Darling as an one shot but I ended up adding so much details and other factors to it, that I kept on writing. It also wasn't internationally a BL but I always wanted to write one, I was just to shy to start out. Got over that fear and read a lot about BL and I think I am doing a good job with it. And I got the same problem as you, giving up after a few chapters but i somehow keep writing because I want to see my two boys grow.
And last but not least I choose Historical-Fantasy as genre because I'm really into books by Jona Dreyer and she wrote a whole bunch of books with this genre and I love all of them. So I consider Historical-Fantasy as my go to genre.

The last point would be that it helps me to keep studying because I only write in the evening when I studied enough.

Hello! I just updated my comic, here it is:

I don't want to give anything away so I wont say much about the story, but its one that I've been working on for some time. Hope you give it a chance!

The Ballad of Mallory Dane is a superhero fantasy that also delves heavily into science fiction and action. I wanted to write it because I enjoy high-action stories, but also because I felt the superhero genre needed more diversity -- four members of the League of Paragons are LGBTQ+, one of whom is genderfluid. Their leader, Captain Luminary, is essentially a gay black Superman and the foundation of the team. He is a beacon of hope and integrity, of the highest moral character. I also wanted to write a story in which the "main" character is NOT the leader, and that's why Mallory Dane/Blue Phoenix is just a normal member and the eventual healer of the Paragons.

This comic is my baby. It's all started when I created Eva, the main character.. I love her and I draw her constantly, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't gave her a story. One day I created another character, Fran, to act as a counterpart to Eva, just for fun. In that moment a lot of ideas for sketches and interactions between those two characters came to my mind! I started posting some stripes on instagram, and then I decided to create "the Eva & Fran show"!

Some of my fanfics lol
