10! Lenaren
11''Lenaren'' is a future cartoon created by @/{{Chickeon}} and updates are posted on his deviantART page, which can be found [[http://chickeonqueen.deviantart.com here]].
12
13A difficult choice plagues the leaders of the six Lenarese superstates of the Republic of Chienne, United States of Chihuan, Unified Avian Monarchy, Greater Persian Theocracy, United Soviet Ursine Republics, and the People's Republic of Mashan. As the current and long-standing cold war between them all seems to heat up after a few controversial choices, all of them come to think over the prospect of war.
14
15Chienne and Chihuan are close allies, and work under the name of the Chienne-Chihuan Axis, or just the Axis. These two countries, although very different, have leaders that are elected and capitalism reigns supreme. Chinenne is much more free than that autocratic and chihuahua-supremacist Chihuan, but they find a common ground through race and economy. On the opposite end of the spectrum, lies the dictatorial and communist Mashan and Ursine Republics. They are allied under the name of the Equine-Ursine Alliance, or the Alliance for short, and advocate communism and control. The Ursine Republics are more strict in their adherence to communism. The Axis and Alliance, due to their ideological conflicts, are locked in an eternal cold war. What's more, is that war could happen at the slightest provocation. The Southeastern Coalition containing the oligarchic, caste-driven Unified Avian Monarchy and the religious Greater Persian Theocracy, have not choice but to either take sides in a possibly world-ending conflict or somehow stick together.
16
17President of Chienne Molly has more grandiose ambitions than what the citizens of Chienne will allow; Empress Ai is dealing with a possible rebellion on her hooves; Prime Minister Nikolai tries to inspire his populace to work through force; High Priest Rais is dealing with some unholy behaviours that would ruin him, along with a budding insurgency; Queen Nosizwe seems to have the only country that isn't under threat, but she is; and Chihuanese President Ferox, although secretive, has researchers working on a game-changing technology: nuclear power.
18
19The one question taking the world of Lenaren by storm is: Is war worth it? Is it necessary? Can opposing cultures reconcile, or will the only redemption come from the barrel of a gun?

123! Up North
124''Up North'' is a webcomic created by @/{{Chickeon}} and posted on his deviantART page, which can be found [[http://chickeonqueen.deviantart.com here]].
125
126''Up North'' follows North Korea, a narcissistic, crazed man who has high ambitions but low common sense or funds. He is joined by his Latino friend Cuba, who tries to keep him grounded; his nerdy twin South Korea; his absolute enemies America and Japan; and his role models Russia and China. North Korea does not listen to anyone but himself (and sometimes Cuba, China, and Russia), and has unmatched determination to build a missile capable of striking down all his enemies.
127
128Then again, barely anyone can stand him and mostly anyone could kill him, so HilarityEnsues.
129
130One of @/Chickeon's projects, which has been worked on for around six months. However, the roots of this webcomic go back much further, with its unreleased predecessor dating back to around two years ago.

295* CreatorBacklash: Before making this incarnation, Chickeon tried making a webcomic that focused on the entire world. This was a problem, as the scope was too big. These problems caused him to quit working on the comic altogether until he retooled it into what it is today.
