resolved Pokémon fan comic on Smackjeeves Webcomic
This might be difficult considering the state of comic's origin, but I'm confident someone here has read this.
This was a Pokémon webcomic on the now-defunct Smack Jeeves, and I remember it for being noteworthy for the fact it showed Pokemon death and it WASN'T based on someone's Nuzlocke run.
So, it starts out with this brown-haired girl who ends up reluctantly getting a wild Zangoose. They also keep running into this guy and his Golduck who both have disfigurements thanks to some explosion or something.
A pivotal point is when the girl and the Zangoose come across the fresh corpse of a Sneasel that's chained to a tree.
They both freak out, but eventually a storm comes and both of them and the corpse are taken in by a helicopter.
That's where I remember it leaving off and not continuing at all since I believe the author/artist only did it as a hobby (even having to state so in a description at one point). I think it got cancelled.
resolved Government Super Gender-Bender webcomic Webcomic
The protagonist — I think he works for the government or something — meets someone at a restaurant. The person swaps his drink for something else (or slips it in). It turns out it was Applied Phlebotinum, and the next morning the protagonist has not only transformed into a woman, she also effortlessly cartwheels out of bed without meaning to. She now has superhuman strength and reflexes. Maybe higher intelligence too, I don't remember. Anyway, it turns out she's been involuntarily recruited to some secret government program, and it involved giving her this enhancement, which for some reason invariably turns you into a woman. I forget what the government program was all about.
She gets taken to a space station, which is the program's base of operations, and one of the last things I remember is her learning to play a zero gravity sport they invented. (But it isn't The Fuse. I think the sport had a similar sort of nickname as ziggyball, though.)
The protagonist wasn't the only recruit, there were others. I think they had some name, but I don't remember what it was. When I looked at Differently Powered Individual, the term "Angels" stuck out to me, but that might be a false positive. (And it definitely isn't Angels 2200, despite other similarities like space and Improbably Female Cast.)
Edited by NoriMoriresolved Fake "Wrong Name Outburst" in webcomic Webcomic
There was this scene with Alice and Bob in bed together. At some point, Carol (probably Bob's ex, but I'm not sure of that) walks in on them, leading Bob to say "Carol?" in confusion.
Unfortunately, Alice somehow notices neither the lighting change from opening the door nor Bob's obvious shift in tone, nor the noise of the door opening and closing; she mistakes it from a Wrong-Name Outburst, and kicks Bob out of the bed / breaks up with him.
I was particularly stung by how contrived it was (both from Bob only saying Carol's name and not, say, "Close the door!" or "Out!" or anything else, and from Alice's obliviousness) but don't remember the comic itself.
Edit: Found it thanks to ~Ngamer11, that was in Juvenile Diversion:
- Wrong-Name Outburst: Kyle blurts out Meg's name while having sex with Jenny because he catches her peeking on them. Unfortunately, Jenny doesn't see Meg and gets angry at Kyle for doing this.
resolved Post-apocalyptic Webtoon Webcomic
I remember reading this webcomic on Webtoon Canvas (or whatever it was called before). It's a post-apocalyptic story with a blind girl as the main protagonist. The apocalypse started because of a nuclear blast, but she survived because she was hiding behind her boyfriend, and went blind because she looked at the explosion. Does anyone know the title of this webcomic?
resolved Artsy Science-Fantasy Webcomic (solved) Webcomic
I'm trying desperately to find a webcomic I know that I read. It was published ~2016, and it was finished/had a conclusion in the same year I think.
The story followed 3 robots (I think? At least one was a robot); the main character was a humanoid robot(?) who almost never talked and might have had amnesia. They were accompanied by a blue, spherical robot and another robot(?) that disliked/distrusted them.
The main character was on a quest to seal away an ancient, evil force; they might have had a special sword?
The blue robot was treated very badly by its creators, but was optimistic and cheerful; all of its creators and their society may have been destroyed by the time the comic took place.
The group traveled through weird vistas of an abandoned world. At the end, the main character successfully sealed away the evil force, seeming to die in the process, but woke up somewhere different? It was somewhat ambiguous what had happened.
The art style was distinct and clean, and used a lot of pastel colors. I thought the title was "Ouroboros" or similar, but google has turned up nothing.

What comic (or webcomic) is the Embarrassing but Empowering Outfit image from? There's no source and it doesn't appear to be listed on the examples.
resolved (SOLVED) Short Comic - Wizard Battles a Monstrous Familiar Webcomic
I'm looking for a short (less than 5 pages, I think) one-shot comic that I first saw on the web a few years ago (maybe in 2015 - 2017?).
In the comic, a human magic user/ wizard has just battled and defeated a large monster. (I think the monster had snake or lizard-like features). As it lays dying, the monster taunts the wizard by saying something along the lines of "We can keep doing this again and again. I'll keep coming back, and one day I'll defeat you." The monster dies, and it reverts to a cute little baby-monster (either through a phoenix-rising-from-the-ashes attribute or because the wizard has cast an age-reversing spell on the creature - can't remember). The wizard gently scoops up the harmless baby monster carries it away, vowing to "try again" (the implication being that the wizard has been trying to raise the monster to be less monstrous, only to have to kill the creature when it becomes corrupted or evil).
I think I first saw this comic being reblogged on tumblr, but it may also have made the rounds on twitter or imgur.
Edited by Leporidaeresolved Webcomic about Zombie Discrimination (SOLVED!!) Webcomic
I'm having trouble remembering the name of a webcomic I fell off on reading due to impatience in waiting for each page.
It's about some guy that gets shot or dies some other way and becomes a zombie. The comic is mainly about his relationship with his fiancée and him facing discrimination by society due the unexpected feral-ness of zombies. Also, the zombie's have blue skin.
I think the comic was on the group Hiveworks, but I checked and I had trouble finding it.
Edited by TropeFanaticFanresolved Isometric Webcomic, Anybody? Webcomic
The main character wakes up in a hospital with amnesia, finds the world is in the middle of apocalypses. Yes, plural apocalypses. There's a robot uprising, plant monsters eating people, zombies, vampires, there might be aliens, but I don't remember. Oh, and the main character, the chosen one, is an idiot.
I read this webcomic somewhere in the early/mid 2010's. It's a fantasy comic that's set in a world where everyone is some kind of animal shapeshifter, or everyone has the characteristics of some kind of animal. I don't recall the specifics, but it's some kind of natural animal-human combo.
Our main character is a child who was adopted by a family of sheep-people. They aren't a sheep person, and aren't quite sure what animal they are. They might be some kind of deer? Don't recall the gender of this character.
They end up going through a portal to another part of the world, or perhaps another time. It's definitely the same world, but super far away. On the other side of the portal, it's very snowy, and our protagonist ends up in the care of a village of moose-people.
As this is going on, the main character's mother is looking for them.
I haven't had much luck finding anything, does this description ring any bells?
