4''Three Jaguars'' is a web comic on art, business and their mad intersection by [[Creator/MCAHogarth M. C. A. Hogarth]], a writer and artist. It would be slice-of-life except that the interior impulse are personified -- so to speak -- in the three anthromorphic jaguars: business manager, marketer, and artist.

6During its active runs, it updated Mondays, Wednesdays, and (if she gets enough tips) Fridays.

8The website is currently down, however on September 1st, 2015 a print collection was published. Found on the "[[http://mcahogarth.org/writing/#nonfiction nonfiction]]" section of the author's site along with a collection of columns and a book on running Website/{{Kickstarter}} projects featuring illustrations of the jaguars.

10!!Tropes:
11* AllegoricalCharacter: All three are in fact facets of an artist/writer's mind.
12* AllIsWellThatEndsWell: Subverted, though Business Manager thought it true at first.
13%%* BerserkButton: Coupons, for Marketer.
14* BigNo: When Marketer sees that the "hot trend" is "cats with wings".
15* CooldownHug: Marketer uses this on Business Manager and Artist.
16* FreudianTrio: Artist, the impulsive one, fills the role of "Id"; Business Manager tries to keep her expenses in check, making her the "Superego"; while Marketer fills the role of "Ego" by trying to keep the peace between the other two. Though it would be important to note that like most other Freudian Trios they're more than simply an Id, Ego, and Superego.
17* FunnyAnimal: The three jaguars are anthropomorphic.
18* GenkiGirl: The ever-energetic Marketer
19* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Artist. Marketer is full clad, and Manager doesn't wear anything but fur.
20* HammerSpace: Does Business Manager look like she has pockets? [[note]] Appropriately, the page where Artist asked where Manager put their wallet is titled "Fur of Holding".[[/note]]
21%%* HeartSymbol: Marketer can radiate them.
22* KillItWithFire: How else to deal with a bad contract?
23* LaughThemselvesSick: Business Manager has this reaction to [[http://threejaguarscomic.net/?comic=that-business-stuff-page-1 the article Artist found about a writer who didn't want to have to deal with the publishing side of things.]]
24%%* MentalWorld: The setting, technically.
25* MortonsFork: Artist can imagine disaster both if the comic succeeds and if it fails.
26%%* MustHaveCaffeine: Even preparing for launch
27%%* OnceUponATime: How it begins.
28%%* PantheraAwesome: The three jaguars
29* PerpetualPoverty: Business Manager thinks Artist will doom them to this. At best.
30%%* PersonalRaincloud: Business Manager, after a bad contract.
31%%* ThePollyanna: Marketer
32* RhetoricalQuestionBlunder: Yes, they do know how long it takes to draw a comic.
33* StarvingArtist: Artist would be this if they let her get away with it.
34* VisibleSilence: When Business Managers surprises Artist with a comparison.
35* WallOfBlather: Clipboard of marketing slogans.
