[[http://www.doublepuma.com/adventure My Middle Name's Adventure]] is a webcomic created by Leo Modesto and Alex Medina (written by both, drawn by the former) and hosted as part of their website, [[http://www.doublepuma.com DOUBLEPUMA.com]]. The comic follows the adventures of a boy and his [[CompanionCube pet rock]] who set out to live grand adventures in a whimsical [[StandardFantasySetting fantasy land]]. They meet all sorts of people and creatures along the way, from [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OurDragonsAreDifferent TV-loving dragons]] to bridge-controlling [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheMafia mobster trolls]].

The comic's main gimmicks are a quasi-retro aesthetic that mimics [[UsefulNotes/GameBoy handheld game systems]] of old (though it's not a [[GamingWebcomics video game comic]] ''per se'') and its use of [[UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash Flash]] content to, among other things, [[HelloInsertNameHere allow the reader to name the main character]]. The comic has occasional animated and full color strips as well - complete with 8-bit sound effects.

Characters include:

* '''"TheHero"''', also known as Alex, also known as John, or whatever. His goal is to [[ToBeAMaster become the greatest hero of his time]] - although he may not be the most qualified for the job. Gets in and out of sticky situations constantly as such.
* '''Amed''', the hero's [[NonHumanSidekick trusty pet rock]] and best friend. [[SilentPartner Does not speak]], but shows slight signs of sentience. His facial expression is a [[PerpetualSmiler constant "o 3o"]].
* '''Tim''', the hero's [[OutOfFocus other friend]]. Also an adventurer, although one with lesser ambitions (Well, [[http://www.doublepuma.com/adventure/comic/0002/ sorta]]). [[NiceGuy Carefree and simple]], he doesn't seem to mind the fact he's not very competent at what he does and tries to just have fun instead.
* '''Lina''', an [[TheApprentice apprentice]] mage who's looking for the chosen hero who'll fulfill a prophecy she doesn't quite know.
* '''Winston''', a dragon the hero attempts to slay, but who turns out to be an okay guy who loves TV and fried chicken, and dislikes humans' stereotypes of dragons as ruthless monsters.
* The '''Troll Mafia''', which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. Their leader is known as the [[Film/TheGodfather Godtroll]].
* '''[[ANaziByAnyOtherName Angry Germans]]''', who only got a brief mention but seem rather [[ThoseWackyNazis vicious]]. May or not have [[StupidJetpackHitler perfected dragon technology]].
* '''Office Worker Pixies''', who, like Winston and dragons in general, [[OurFairiesAreDifferent break the stereotypical definition]] of pixies as partying individuals.

Currently, the strip updates twice a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays.
