openLeague of Extraordinary Animals Webcomic
There was this cartoony webcomic that took the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen concept and applied it to classic animal characters. The plot involves a vixen (who is a decenent of Reynard) asked to join a team to stop an evil mastermind. From what I can remember, the team members included Mr. Toad and Anansi.
openLooking for a Webcomic? Webcomic
I have a vague memory of a webcomic about a world where babies are born without genders and develop them later. The main character was a teenager who never developed a gender but their childhood friends, one male and one female, both end up falling for them. I remember it starting with the characters mother reading a book about how kids grow into their gender and commenting to her husband that there’s a problem with their child.
openWhat is this? Webcomic
I started reading a comic a long while back where the people where the main character lived had wings. I think they got their wings from the temple of their goddess and the main character didn't have wings because she(I think it was a she?) had a father from a different race. I think she was controlled by her father to try and get wings somehow. I've been trying to find it for ages with little sucess.
openBlue-skinned boy? Webcomic
Unfortunately, I remember very little - I read it at least six years ago. But I remember checking in with it at some point and realizing that it was still ongoing. It was a full-color comic with a plot. The main character was a young/teen boy. I seem to remember that at some point he underwent some trauma (possibly died), and his skin/eyes/hair became blue-tinted.
He might have had an unusual name like "Kat" or "Zero" - one of those words that is a word, but not common as a name.
openTransgender webcomic Webcomic
I remember a webcomic with black-and-white animesque art, the main character was female-to-male transgender, and the comic opens with him talking to his doctor about how his hormone therapy was affecting him (I remember him explicitly stating how he now has an urge to eat everything), with the doctor reassuring him that it's all normal. Those were the first couple of pages.
One last tidbit, which might be a red flag due to me remembering wrong, was that the main character later becomes a werewolf as well.

openWebcomic where a shapeshifter's transformation causes their death Webcomic
- SOLVED - THANK YOU EVERYONE! ***
So there was a trope - I think "shapeshifter backfire" and one of the works was a webcomic where a character is dies because she shifts into the form of a very dangerous character. The boy she was talking to tells her that copying the form of the dangerous character is the same as summoning them. One panel later he's covered in blood as his friends try too help him.
What was that webcomic???
Edited by TairaMaiopen[Solved] Looking for a webcomic that was kinda Roger Rabbit Webcomic
I'm looking for a webcomic that was kind of like Who Framed Roger Rabbit but not exactly so. I've forgotten the title of it, so finding it is almost impossible without it.
Here's what I remember. It follows a group of humans and toons who work at a "cartoon" studio. In this web comic's universe, cartoons aren't animated by being drawn because cartoon toon characters somehow exist naturally, enough so that they can actually breed with humans (in fact, one of the main characters is a cartoon-human hybrid, giving her a unique appearance). Instead, "cartoons" are filmed with only cartoon characters with special sets.
One of the reoccurring themes of the webcomic was how standards and practices affect the industry. This is a very old webcomic, taking place around 2005 to 2010. As such, homosexuality wasn't as widely accepted at this time as it is today. So another element was that one of the main characters had to keep her lesbian relationship a secret in order to maintain her child-friendly image. (I know, this sounds ridiculous nowadays, but we're talking about a different time).
Here are the characters I remember in the comic.
There's this very old cartoon character who was big in the early 30's or something to that effect. He was a monkey and after earning a lot of money as a star, eventually created his own studio, which has been in business in one form or another. This is the studio that the webcomic takes place in.
The old cartoon character married a cartoon cat that was about ten or twenty years younger than him (I forgot the specific ages, but the point is there's an age difference). They had two kids, one of them was the closeted lesbian I mentioned earlier, the other was a monkey that looked more like his father than his sister did. He's under a lot of pressure to work on a reboot of the cartoons that his father was in. He's not happy about this but feels like he can't let his father or the studio down.
There was also the human-cartoon hybrid I mention earlier. The best way I can describe her is a very thick, curvy short stack. This means she isn't "kid-friendly" enough for modern cartoons, so she can only work in the background, like set design and stuff.
There were a few other characters but they aren't as important to the plot.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Edited by IndigoJackopenOld Mech Comic Webcomic
I'm looking for an older webcomic about giant fighting mecha. The plot was primarily about a bunch of clans fighting to be on top of the leaderboard, which for some reason or another gave a lot of power to the winning clans.
I remember one of the big details was that the world had basically gone to shit, and the city it took place in had a huge hologram in place of the sky.
openCreepy Folklore Stories Webcomic
I remember so clearly seeing a beautifully illustrated comic with a collection of folklore stories. They were incredibly creepy and came from a culture that doesn't normally get to share its folklore with a wider audience (maaybe a polynesian country but I'm not sure). One of the stories involved being turned into this terrifying wooden sort of scarecrow. Another story, the one I remember most clearly, is about an animal that made a certain creepy noise. An insect I think. And if you stepped on one, the it made the noise and the other insects heard, and there's this big monster that gets you and turns you into the wooden creepy scarecrow (might be two related stories I'm not sure). The creepy noise sounds like wood creaking, and so the person turned to grinning wood makes the same noises as the animal they stepped on. Something like that. Does anyone know what mythology this is? It's so fascinating and I want to do a project on it but I can't find the original comic no matter how hard I search. Maybe someone has seen the original comic?
Edited by GAN2012openSuperhero Teen Girl Instagram Comic Webcomic
I followed an Instagram comic account last year but since forget about their username. The only things that i remember are:
1. It's made in black and white
2. The superhero is a white girl with super strength and flying abilities
3. She lives with a black girl roommate and a white nerdy guy
4. Some comics that i remember:
a. she flies a Christmas tree and is noticed by a couple of dad and son. She claims that she is fortune Christmas tree and tell the kid to make a wish. When the dad says it's not possible, she closes in and give him some money.
b. There is a series of comics about the trio taking care of a wounded bird. Chaos and drama ensues. It ends with the superhero letting the bird go.
c. There is a quarrel between the superhero and her girl roommate. She asks for help from the nerdy guy and will tell a secret that the girl roommate has, turns out the roommate has a tattoo on her back. The superhero is also revealed to be scared of needles.
openFurry webcomic with shapeshifting shadow creature Webcomic
I remember stumbling on a Webcomic during a wiki walk, but I can't remember what page it was on. It was a Furry webcomic set in what was largely a standard fantasy setting. What I remember is that one character started as a shapeshifting shadow/black slime creature who imitated the protagonist before developing her own identity, but Slime Girl and Living Shadow aren't helping, and I think digging through the page of every Furry webcomic on the wiki is a last resort
openA dark furry webcomic Webcomic
I remember back in 2015ish or so, I had read a dark furry webcomic.
I remember it taking place in a lab setting, and one of the characters had a very obvious stutter or lisp, which led them (him?) to being picked on by a few of the other characters, both physically and verbally.
I remember the web page and the comic being very dark as well, there were lots of greys, blacks, and muted colors used, as well as a brief warning on the "about" page that the comic was not for kids. I think there might have been an age restriction warning (13+? 15+?) too.
openLookin for an early 2000s/2010s webcomic/web series Webcomic
So I’m not sure when this was but it’s a webcomic about a girl who’s living in this world where you live in underwater cities and live in a vr world where the character you inhabit can only be drawn by yourself. This girl has pink hair and poorly draws her character to the point where it has like circles for hands but for some reason she’s like super powerful. I’ve been trying to find this webcomic for a while but I just can’t find it anywhere and I think it might be obscure
openSci-fi webcomic (solved) Webcomic
Looking for a sci-fi webcomic. A human police woman is working with aliens on another planet. in order to get there she had to put her original body in storage and have her mind transmitted to the new planet, where a body was cloned for her. Her partner is insect like humanoid. There are a mysterious couple a bald head man and woman who seem to believe there is a conspiracy going on with the cloned bodies and they seem to think that "nobody actually goes home"
Solved: The webcomic is called phoenixan
openSlice of Life Witch Mom Webcomic Webcomic
A cute slice of life webcomic about an average middle aged mom, her husband, and like 2 or 3 kids, and the mom just happens to be a witch in a world where magic is known and fairly normal, but not super common. I remember in particular a sequence where the mom is trying to set up a magical grocery delivery, but given that magic is treated as a technology that has upsides and downsides like any other, she eventually concludes she'd rather go get them herself mundanely. At least part of it was definitely published between 2005-2010, but likely more on one or both sides of that time.
openUnknown Webcomic
I think it was supposed to be, like, an action/drama comic. I read it some time ago, and remember really liking it. I found the comic through an alignment chart meme, searching up one of the quotes in the image so I could find the source. It had a page here, and the premise seemed interesting, so I started reading it. There was this one scene where a paraplegic guy, or someone who was just unable to walk at that point for whatever reason, fell onto a shore or something, and then drowned because he couldn't get back up. That one really fucked with me. Now, years later, I am unable to remember the name, the quote I searched for, or much of the context, and am only about 75% sure that what I remembered was accurate. I'm completely unable to find the same image that led me to the comic in the first place. Does anyone have any idea what I'm talking about, because I really feel like it might be worth a reread.
Edited by thelastdoor666openA girl finds the head of a statue Webcomic
A girl finds the head of a statue in a field of grass. The head can talk and asks the girl to help him find the rest of his body, and the girl agrees. As they wander, the head talks about how he doesn't remember who he is, but he thinks he is probably part of a monument to somebody wonderful. At the end, the girl finds the statue's body, and its a statue of a man getting eaten by a lion.
openHorror Webcomic about an Artifact and the Supernatural Webcomic
It's a horror webcomic where in the past, someones grandmother makes these crazy writings about some ancient power but nobody wants to talk about it.
A woman works in a library or archives and she meets this young archaeologist who thinks he's on to something big, but the rest of his community thinks that he's chasing for something that doesn't exist/is fake.
The archaeologist goes missing, but I think the woman witnessed his disappearance. He either fell or was overtaken by something sinister.
Before the archaeologist goes missing, he and the woman find a piece of some relic that makes them feel an overhanging sense of dread/that something is WRONG.
Here's a bad sketch of the relic from my memory of reading it like a year ago: [ i.imgur.com (slash) Wh V 9 Se 2 (dot) png ] also has something to do with aliens or monsters or a cult.
The webcomic has also been translated to/from some other language. There was an English version and.... I want to say German? but I'm not sure.
i wanna say the title was like something related to eggs or rebirth or horrible experiments. like ovum??? or something in latin???? but I'm not completely sure.
thanks!
Edited by MysteriousKnight244

I only read the start of the webcomic, so I don't remember much in the way of plot, but the main character was a blond, very feminine-looking male who apparently goes into different worlds when he sleeps (I believe the second part was only implied). There's some kind of imprisoned queen, perhaps a fairy, and he's been chosen to save her. The title "Hero" may have come up. The beginning is either in gray or he's in a dungeon with said queen, or possibly after he gets out of the dungeon it's gray. I think there's also an evil doll with stuffing coming out of his neck that the boy sews up. At some point near the beginning he passes out and two fairies watch him and wonder how such an unsatisfactory kid is supposed to save the queen.
