What genre is your webcomic?

[BakedPotato]

I'm making a poll to see which genres have the most authors making webcomics, if you have more than one webcomic answer for the main one you're working on right now: the more people answer, the more accurate the results will be so don't be shy!

(if your webcomic falls into more than one genre, choose the one that describes the main focus of the story)

• Romance
• Science Fiction

I could tick a lot of those, but yea’ olde high fantasy theme here.

I guess in those kind of limited categories given, my comic is "Contemporary Fantasy", but that doesn't exactly describe it very well, because it's like.... a character-focused action-dramedy with LGBTQ+ themes with a plot that revolves around a modern take on concepts from Arthurian legend. Some people might even say it's "superhero", but it doesn't feature mainstays of that genre like sci-fi kinda leaning powers, costumes, secret identities or clear cut "heroes" and "villains".

No "drama" category on this poll?

I think that would be my main theme if I'm being honest

[AilyneGouveia]

I picked fantasy because that's more how I refer to it It's all in good fun lol Just wanted to elaborate on my answer

[DualDragons]

Action but it's not on the poll

[alextsarace]

I'm sooo mainstream, according to your polls: fantasy + lgbtq
It doesn't give me any priority, reader interest and ton of subers tho...

I actually can't really decide what my genre is! I'm hoping it'll become clearer as the story develops. Right now it feels like comedy, but it's definitely got a romance vibe too. I guess only time will tell!

[Caro]

I feel like all of my comics are combined genres that are on the first poll so idk how to answer this one!

[malwdark]

Postapocalyptic action-adventure-horror.
It doesn't seem to be a popular genre here at Tapas I looked at the action and horror sections and they're tiny compared to the comedy / romance ones.

It would be deeply misleading to just pick just one because my main comic is a horror/comedy so its uhhhh

it would be very very inappropriate to just label it a straight up comedy or a straight up horror
