resolved horrormanga solved Print Comic
I remember an anthology manga where one chapter was about a cursed wooden classroom stool, that kills everyone who uses it. They end up using it to punish bullies and in the end the stories protagonist is forced onto it after refusing to make her best friend sit on it
Edited by dutchguy1986resolved Comic about genetically modified female bodyguard Print Comic
As the description says, she's a body guard for her rich family that rules a large part of the world after an economic crisis. I think her name was Forever or something like that. In the setting, the world is ruled by a few families and they each have these special bodyguards (like forever). Also her family has control over advanced medical research which they use to make her and as their main bargaining chip.
resolved Autobiography comic book about a little girl in former Soviet Union Print Comic
There was this comic book I once got my hands on briefly. It was an autobiography about a little girl living in one eastern block country. I think it was either Poland or Ukraine.
The front cover depicted the girl holding a plush toy while standing among soviet soldiers who were only shown from waist down - the upper halves of them were beyond the frame.
resolved Donald Duck stories Print Comic
I'm looking for two Donald duck stories. I want to say they are by Don Rosa or Carl Banks but I'm not sure.
In the first Donald is tasked by Scrooge to return a cursed amulets to let it's rightful owners (amazones I think). I remember the owners using a waterhose to keep anyone claiming to have the amulet of their property because anyone who does have the amulet wouldn't let that stop them.
In the other Scrooge misses hunting for treasures so Donald and the nephews hide one of his treasures, make a map which they hide in a condemned building and have Gyro erase their memories. At the end it turns they found the wrong treasure and the house with the map is torn down
resolved (SOLVED) Graphic novel about teenage girl w/ depression Print Comic
The front cover was all black and all it had was the title, the author's name, and a picture of the main character. She had brown hair, a green sweatshirt, and bags under her eyes.
She was in middle school (high school?) and all I remember was that she would enact self-harm by cutting scars into her arms.
The art was also very simplistic.
Edited by TropeFanaticFanresolved Horror Comic with Grotesque Girl (SOLVED) Print Comic
This one's actually kinda famous, but I can't really find it online since I don't know the magazine that ran the story:
A man's hunting in the woods when he sees another man with an axe, about to chop off the head of a young girl - she seems to be attractive, but there's a bag over her head. He kills the guy and saves her, takes the bag off to find out she's hideously disfigured.
Still, he takes her home and treats her well despite her appearance. At first, his family is supportive, but she starts acting agressive. One night, she forces herself on the guy. The family abandons him, saying he's obsessed with the monster. The grotesque girl ruins the man's life.
In the end, he takes her to the woods to chop her head, and ends up being killed by another hunter.
It's a black and white horror comic, probably from the seventies or early eighties. Around 16 pages.

I'm looking for the comic where Donald goes to the future and finds out that among other things his nephews are continuing his super hero work. Despite all three of them working together the beagle boys are still outmatching them, until Donald takes HD&L to the hideout of the burglars which he knew about because they also used it in the past/present
Edited by dutchguy1986resolved Time travel story with changing memories Print Comic
I think I read about this one somewhere on TV Tropes. I remember it being a comic book but it might have been something else with visuals involved. The basic story is that a time traveler goes back in time in an attempt to change history. However, it turns out that the time traveler doesn't have Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory, so they keep coming back to the present and being annoyed that nothing changed, even though the comic's illustrations show that they're actually causing greater and greater changes to the timeline.
resolved A supervillain comic Print Comic
It has a Villain Protagonist who is an Expy of Bruce Wayne becoming an Expy of The Joker. He has a blank, white featureless mask and one issue cover had him painting a Slasher Smile on it with blood. IIRC one issue also had him kill president Obama with a spear to the head.

I'm trying to identify a recent comic book (I believe it was published within the last 3-5 years). I'm unsure if it was a mini-series or one-shot; I don't think it was an ongoing series. I don't think it was either DC or Marvel. The main character is a Black woman with a crowbar. I believe it takes place in the 1970s, or at least has a 60s vibe / ethos. I think it had some supernatural elements to the story.
