Laika's Comet
is a Post-Apocalyptic Webcomic illustrated by fourleafisland and published on Webtoon. It can also be read on its official Tumblr blog here.Laika, a mechanic, travels across Furth to repair equipment for citizens incapable of doing so. On the side, she and her adoptive father Yue go on missions to collect and study mysterious star pieces, which may be the reason behind the fall of the planet.
Laika's Comet contains examples of:
- The Apocalypse Brings Out the Best in People: Furth is in ruins, but it doesn't stop characters like Laika from helping those in need.
- Cosy Catastrophe: As of the first chapter, the post-apocalyptic Furth appears to be this, with people continuing to go about their lives after the end of the world.
- Fourth-Wall Mail Slot: While not part of the comic itself, occasionally questions sent to the official Tumblr blog receive answers where the comic's characters themselves respond to or acknowledge the question, such as here.
- Furry Reminder: When Laika retrieves a stick that was stuck in a rain catcher in the first chapter, she briefly carries it in her mouth like a dog.
- Goggles Do Something Unusual: Laika's goggles are used to record footage inside star dream bubbles.
- World of Funny Animals: Furth is a version of Earth populated by animals instead of humans. According to the author, the comic specifically takes place in North Pawmerica.
