Gatekeeping can be a pretty dickish practice… but not in every case.

Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, July 4, 2023Fantastic Bestiary 6: The Oni
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, May 15, 2022
And we’re back with Fantastic Bestiary number 6. Being the number 6 in this series of articles I thought I’d bring up a mythic creature of a particularly devilish kind of aestethic. And as this week’s featured comic, featured by our beloved Ozoneocean, happened to be about ...
Fantastic Bestiary 5: Witches
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, April 24, 2022
As Easter has come by to melt away the final vestiges of a long, cold winter (at least up in these parts where I live) it feels like a good time to bring up the mythology of witches. Witches have a central role in the Easter that we celebrate here ...
More Than Human
Banes at 12:00AM, Aug. 12, 2021
Ideas both big and deep can - and has - been explored in Sci Fi. Some themes that have resonated with me include ‘What it Means to be Human’. This could be said to be the point of ALL fiction in a way I suppose. But to explore humanity through the lens ...

Adapting Myth to Modernity (part 2)
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 18, 2017
So last week I’d started talking about the reincarnation upon reincarnation of myth and legend into modern sequential and narrative art- and got some pretty insightful comments on why it persists for millennia (it is said that Euripides adapted the legend of Medea himself in order to make it ...
FEATURED COMIC --> Cogs and Claws
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Aug. 19, 2015
Cogs and Claws is a surreal odyssey for your imagination.
In the opening sequence, a giant flounder emerges from an underwater pod and boards a space shuttle submerged in water. Soon thereafter, the shuttle is blasted into space where it joins several other spacecrafts driven by various anthropomorphic creatures.
This ...
Love Triangles

I hope that all you lovely DDers are celebrating this Valentine's Day in happy, stable relationships - or happy, stable singledom! As for me, I love a good (fictional) love triangle. What's the point of a love story if it's not unnecessarily complicated, right? Here are some of ...
