Last time I started talking about religion as a great umbrella term for a lot of facets of worldbuilding you can take into consideration when constructing the world of your story, be it webcomic, novel, series, or anything else.
This type of worldbuilding is especially prevalent in fantasy worlds, but ...

HELLO—
I am LOTHAR
I would like to introduce you to the Bi-Monthly spotlight on some of the forgotten or abandoned comics we have lingering in the basement of Drunk Duck. Who knows why they stopped updating or what their authours are up to now. I think here on DD ...
Tropes I love: The Bargain
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 19, 2022
So it's fun to rant about tropes I hate but I actually prefer to gush about tropes I love.

Approaching Horror
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Aug. 8, 2020
Though I am certainly no stranger to handling the horrific in my creations, horror as a genre is something I never dabbled in before.
Horror scares me the same way comedy does!
While I can crack jokes, I always feel I can never do it on demand, or consistently think ...
Junji Ito and the art of unease
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Aug. 7, 2020
A core principle of the works of horror mangaka Junji Ito, is the mundane and everyday only backwards. This concept is perfect for short stories as there is no need, or time, to explore lengthy explanations for the uncanny. Events are as they appear which renders them all the more ...
