A mysterious motorcycle riding scarecrow in a road duel with a masked vigilante, an apocalyptic battle with a mecha angel, a face off with a robotic demon… the deserts of old earth are blasted and ruined, playing host to these titanic confrontations. Steamrose is shaping up to be interesting! The pages are big, the art is simplified, striking and colourful (reminds me of hiphop), the writing is minimal but it gets the story out. Try Steamrose by Skye fenn, rated T!.

Cycle Bolt: The story takes inspiration from noted conspiracy fantasists David Icke and Alex Jones- and contains THEIR inspiration of the '80s TV series “V”, the film “bodysnatchers” and the cold war paranoia of that time: The backdrop of this world features alien shape-shifting lizardmen and grey aliens on a covert mission of secret world domination, with only one man and one woman able to stand against them! Also cool armoured suits and high powered alien motorbikes!
The art is pleasantly digitally coloured, shooting for realism. The story is an action drama in a true non-satirical 1980s B-movie sort of way, and very true to that style. So please enjoy it in that fun spirit!

Cats are funny creatures; impulsive, silly, primal, and curious. Gundula has a giant one for a pet, a tiger to be precise! For most people having a pet tiger would be pretty dangerous, especially in the heart of urban Bremen (Germany), but Gundula is not a normal woman… she's a 700 year old witch, who's perpetually 25 and has a strong affinity for animals of all sorts. Even so, Gundi still has all sorts of trials and tribulations looking after her big stripy orange friend!
Master the Tiger is a comedic story comic that's mostly in the style of an illustrated novel rather than a typical comic. It's mostly black and white, drawn in a very natural, charming, sketchy fashion.
It also has a version in the Lower Saxon language or Plattdütsch, called “Gundula un de Stuventiger”.

Have you heard about The Devon Legacy yet? Well now is a great time to get into it! JustNoPoint is just re-doing his series now.
In the Devon Legacy we have a complex story with a lot of history behind it. People have special powers like psychic abilities, they help others and keep them safe, especially from alien invasion! The writing is full of action and urgency in this Scifi action drama story comic. The art is brightly colourful and a pleasure to look at.
The current version of The Devon Legacy starts off with something of an epilogue for the previous version of the story (“Prologue”), just to put a hat on things past before getting into the juicy new stuff.

Zipp, Tashi, and Silga are on an adventure. They've appointed themselves a task- to rid their beloved land Rettubia from her dark and sad influence. Along the way they meet Asmael, a mysterious but capable (and handsome) warrior who has the same quest, and they join up. Don't take this comic too seriously, however- the map of Rettubia reveals a pretty distinct shape, and the “Bikini Forest” is pretty aptly named. The cruel sorceress is named Biatchess. And our heroes can be pretty goofy.

Summary:
Your secrets are not safe. DoorMan is Janus de Nile, an enigmatic time-traveller hunting psychic parasites called the Arcanum, who feed on the guilt, remorse, and regret of those who hold secrets from their past. Sandman meets Doctor Who in this horror / sci-fi / psychological thriller.
The art is solidly black and white high contrast. The Doorman is a pretty professional looking comic with the action viewed from many interesting angles and a lot of work put into character facial expressions. The writing is dark and compelling.

In exchange for his family's safety, Richard Olsen has given his soul to a heartless Demi. His only chance for freedom lies in letting her write a song about his life. Too bad Richard is surly and uncooperative… probably because his whole purpose in life is to kill Demis. He doesn't really want to be a hero- what he really wants is to kill the manic animal-child Demi who is both scary and annoying, and will cause his entire family to die if he doesn't play along. (Not only is he uncooperative, he's pretty terrible at being a hero.)

I bet you've never considered Vegetables for Dessert. You should give it a try- it's more satisfying than you think. I'm talking about the comic of course. It's an absurd humor comic around gags, puns, pop culture, and parody. From the disturbing reality of the only girl Smurf to what mice do when they're drunk, they're almost all winners, and a number of them are reminiscent of comics like The Far Side or PBF. Monty Rohde is pretty good at cribbing visual styles for relevant comics, too!

School of Rumble is a manga battle tournament comic. You know the drill, the new tough guy comes to school hoping to fight his way to top dog, so he starts a fight… and it begins! That's what this is, a classic example of the style. The school has a shadow administration of fighting students, and by battling amongst themselves with honed martial arts skills they establish their hierarchy.
Chapter 1 is currently receiving a beauty treatment, so don't worry if you see pages in there with a lower quality, they'll be fixed soon. The art is fully digital with some nice creative use of patterns in clothing and hair. Some of the anatomy is a little off but this is pretty honed work and a lot of effort has one into it.
Read School of Rumble for a classic fighting tournament story!

This is a story of homecoming, and how war and change can affect someone.

There are some great comics on DD and they need validation and honours heaped upon them. This is the purpose of the DD Awards. Show them your lurv. Please ^_^

Lovecraft, Jr. is a charming little comic about a charming little guy. HP Lovecraft, author responsible for an entire library wing of writings, features in this comic as a little kid. A surly and socially inept little kid. He's got the cynical outlook and concerns of an adult, but the logic processes and naiveté of a young'un. It suits him, actually, although I'm sure it doesn't represent what he was really like at all, it's a version of him based on his library and cultural impression. The comics themselves are pretty light- gags and soft jokes, with occasional appearances by other authors and perhaps a tentacle or two.

Secret societies… They're usually a bad thing, right? Well in this case you'd be half right. In the world of Darklings there are a couple of groups out there in the shadows, one out to harm humanity and the other doing its best to protect it. The monsters of myth and legend are real and they're out to get ya, but long ago some halfbreeds switched sides and decided to help defend against the evil- This is their story and it starts with a young girl newly inducted into this group, a young girl with ferocious powers…
This is a monster mystery action comic. The are is black and white and very reminiscent of pre 17thC woodblock printing in its style.

“Handsome” Chris Sly and Ransom Lee Givens are two henchmen for hire. That is, supervillains phone up the henchmen agency and Handsome and Ransom are then assigned to some megalomaniacal fellow bent on doing naughty things. Being a henchman is hard work, you have to face off against vicious hero sidekicks, and if your villain gets captured or killed you might not even get paid for all your hard work!
This is a hilarious alternative take on the super hero genre. Mostly drawn in black and white this action adventure buddy comedy had its genesis in the Heroes Alliance community webcomic.
