Slither
and Friends:(Comedy) The adventures of Slither Garter,
the little green snake who happens to be the Guardian
of his homeland, The Plateau. Goofy occasionally topical
humor and a fun cast of characters drawn in a whimsical,
colorful style.
Rated PG
Superfogeys:
(Comedy)This one takes the concept used in The Incredibles
to the next level. The superheroes of the Superfogeys
world succumb to old age, and this is the chronicle
of a band of them that wind up in a retirement home.
Witty, often laugh-out-loud funny, the characters are
brilliantly designed both visually and verbally. Very
mild sexual situations.
The Dreamer:
(Romantic Drama)This gem just started recently, and
has quickly become a favorite around the web. Lovely
art with astounding historical detail, this story tells
the tale of Bea Whaley, and her amazing dream journeys
into Revolutionary War Boston. It doesn't make things
easier for Bea that she has two hunks vying for her
attention on both sides of her consciousness. Enchanting
romantic story. Mild violence, language.
Gunnerkrigg
Court: (Fantasy Adventure) This quirky tale has
been a fave of mine and my kids' for a few years now.
The wonderfully unique story of a stoic young Antimony
and her adventures (and misadventures) in the weird
school, Gunnerkrigg Court. A vast array of charming
characters fill the pages of this story which is told
in smaller arcs that create a larger legend as our heroine
seeks to solve the mysteries of her past. Mild violence.
Phoenix Requiem:(Fantasy
Drama)A story filled with intrigue and mystery, PR will
keep you coming back regularly. Featuring the beautiful
art of Sarah Ellerton (Inverloch) this one updates twice
a week like clockwork with two pages each update. One
of my personal favorites. Mild violence
Roza and the
Horse Prince:(Fantasy Adventure) Wonderfully expressive
characters, dazzling colors, and a classic animation
feel make Roza a favorite of mine. The story of a cursed
gypsy girl whose blood is literally is on fire, and
the animal and human friends and foes she encounters.
Mild violence.
Earthsong:
a wonderful epic fantasy with a large archive and fan
base, with lively dialogue, and a colorful cast of diverse
characters. Inventive and clever, this is a favorite
webcomic of many for good reason. Mild violence.
Rated PG-13
Broken
(Things): (Drama)This is the moody, haunting tale
of an impoverished high school boy, Steeley Dan and
his tragic life. Visually memorable, with beautiful
art in shades of gray and black this story features
some of the best writing and dialogue in webcomics.
Language.
C'est La Vie:
(Comedy) I love Mona. Brooding, crabby Mona. And her
brother the stud. AND THEY'RE FRENCH! Come on! Terrific
characters, funny story arcs. Language, mild sexual
situations.
War of Winds:
(Fantasy Adventure Drama)Epic story about the legends
of the Four Winds. Broad in scope and boasting an amazingly
detailed backstory, War of Winds has lots of archive
and written tales to keep you happily emmersed for days.
The beautiful art is detailed and emotive, and filled
with symbolism and great character and costume design.
Violence.
Lackadaisy:(Furry,
Historical, Funny, Crazy) What can I say about this
one that hasn't been said? Tracy Butler is simply one
of the finest artists in the webcomic genre, and this
story her gift to us. Brilliant character design, funny,
snappy dialogue, and tireless attention to historical
details make this comic about Prohibition St. Louis
cats (in clothes) a delectable visual treat. Violence,
language.
Fantasy
Realms:(High Fantasy) This is a truly beautiful
webcomic. It updates sporatically, but it's okay because
the archive is good enough to warrant regular revisiting.
A small cadre of characters adventure through a long
ago realm. The story begins in the present, the rest
of the tale being backstory to a tragic beginning. Some
violence.
ADULT SECTION
Please do not go to these sites if you are under eighteen.
They are for adults only.
Pinky
TA: (punkish war fantasy)It's hard to categorize
this one. Michael's art is amazingly detailed, and the
story is crazy, wild fun. Worth checking out just to
see his seascapes- Michael is truly a master of background
art. Graphic violence, nudity, language.
Other Sites:
Bradley
Shenk: just look at this stuff. I can't really
say anything that says 'wow' enough. His Celtic knotwork
designs make my ancestors weep. Discuss.
Gateway
by Paul Norman: Pauly is a dear friend from across
the pond from me, and he's been presenting this wonderful
literature site for years. If you love pulp fiction,
fantasy and classic goodies (not to mention pinups....PAULY!
) go here.
Tomgeeks: The
site for and by girls who are geeks. And yes I am
a founding mother. (that sounds naughty) Great up

some of the powerhouse fantasy by women online.
