im 38 years old and you should check out my stupid webcomic if you haven't bc there's a chance you'll like it and if you do, then that would make me very happy 🎉
it's still https://kingsgatecomic.com/ and neocities might be down but you know what whatever
happy birthday to me and every gay and also to donuts i guess
If Eelliot was in slay the spire what would his deck look like?
wym he's already in the game
in all honesty though I'm holding the mic up to him while he begrudgingly admits to being a gamer nerd as a kid. not drawing an answer bc this is so niche but uhhh. I think it'd be fun for him to be kind of counter-spell-y? or like uhh. death-ball-y :|c???
I kinda view him as low def, high regen and then strategic attacks, in general. He doesn't hold onto a win, like Regent with his sword, he just counters or tanks minor hits until he can do some sort of x10 attack for his ten million spaghetti bites.
it'd be fun if his different builds were based on his various AUs :3c??
Riven (KG version): maybe takes dmg but can regen damage taken during that fight, so he gives a "flawless" look at the end
Roil: focused more on big hits and truly terrible defense. ?stim-pack style drug use?
Rent: status ailments and weakness/stunning for a more combo-assembling deck. maybe most of his card removal is in this line
answering this w/o checking with Zani, who is Elliot's main writer, bc they don't play so I'm firing off wild and free rn and they can correct me later B)
ok one more silly slay the spire doodle bc i died to the entomancer twice today and im starting to think i just genuinely do not know how to play this game
my neighbor has been leafblowing his yard 14 hours a day all weekend and i am losing the ability to think. here's more Regent bc I have so much drawing energy and no outlet but this horrible man (positive)
yeah im spending most of my energy on my comic! so I'm actually drawing so so much but it's all just the same two idiot gay boys trying to kill eachother.
I know that's not everyone's thing so I try not to post about it too often here other than at chapter changes/etc, so unfortunately my tumblr is mostly just a few sketches and warmup doodles between pages rn
Double commission for @bobthedragon and @battologist for the second anniversary of their webcomic "Have You Heard About Kingsgate?" which you can read here!! I love these two guys and all their weird tension and the copious amount of eels, thank you again for the commission! :D
PLEASE look at this gorgeous gorgeous art Chaotic did I'm in love??? the colors and textures are making me insane
also, Chaoticnoisy is an amazing person and was extremely chill and fun to work with for talking through the commission ideas and everyone should go get art from them tbh??
hello I have been working on my stupid lil comic for TWO YEARS now apparently !! I know it's not up everyone's alley but hey, if you want to see what I've been doing nonstop since I started:
Happy Birthday to Kingsgate! -> https://kingsgatecomic.com/
and also, a link to our Discord! -> https://discord.com/invite/jvdU6vhs4x
I'm behind my predicted schedule of it taking 8 years, but woohoo! this is my comic about terrible hatemance, bodyhorror, and not much else!
~Kingsgate Update(s)~!
(I have been updating but not saying it here bc I am so so tired)
Chapter 2 Scene 1 is coming to a close, so if you wanna catch up, now's a good time o/! there's a Macaw and also Hand Holding and a little bit of Stabbing if any of that is related to your interests.
Chapter 2 start here -- https://kingsgatecomic.com/
Also, we've been getting a lot of really cool submissions to Webcomic Web, my partner's hub for linking webcomics!!
if you're looking to read more comics or add your own comic to the directory, check it on out! -- https://webcomicweb.com/
hey just shoutout warning to my michigander friends out there: if you're looking for a tattoo do not approach the artist "sammy keena". friend just had a wretched experience w him
My very cool partner has been working on a site called webcomicweb to try to help collect comics and help people find them, spurred on by randomwebcomic's domain expiring
more info under the cut, but it is a voluntary webcomics directory and we'd love to have you check it out to add comics or read comics if you are interested!

We're both millennials who grew up with the birth of the webcomic format, spawned from passionate strangers making things out of the human need to make art and stories and connect. When you stumbled from comic to comic through webrings and link pages before the internet got so small and so centralized and before comics became a business model for middlemen who have never cared about them.
webcomicweb can't promise any of the things a big, corporate product can promise because it's run by one person and hosted on neocities as a passion project with a $5 domain. we're not planning on making this a business and we don't know how long it'll last! but at least! we give a shit! my partner's going to keep paying for this and keep updating this directory for at least as long as our own comic is running (estimating 8 years at least at this rate lmao) so if this sounds appealing to you: bookmark the site, send us your links, tell your friends, whatever!
some features I wanna highlight bc I like them:
default randomized comic order - Zani specifically did not want to have the list end up with a bias based on time or alphabet. every time you refresh it re-shuffles so everyone gets seen!
filterable ratings from Everyone to Explicit
comics can ONLY be submitted by comic owners, so if you don't want to be listed you will not ever be dragged in by mass link scrapers or w/e!!
no monetization - this is literally JUST a directory for serving and displaying links to comics. because we like comics. because we want more people to read cool things and we want to read more cool things.
There's categories for paused, scrapped, and finished comics as well as ongoing! it's hard to get people to look at old things you've made in this feed-based world!!! but there's still so many people who wanna see it!!
anyway yeah that's my pitch!!! neither me nor zani benefits from this in any way other than the fact that we get to read and share comics! that is literally the whole goal! They've also been sending out emails asking people if they want in, but anyway they are so cool and handsome check out their site
joining onto this train and tossing on some of my guys. did a bunch of these on stream w people! so behold: overbite + underbite, boneless + ice breath, and Indecisive Rescue Dragon
Elliot has a kid brother who will probably not appear in the comic partially bc i don't want to draw him and he is Very much Not Eels.
that being said, the secret of it all is that they are related powers, just on a more emotional level than physical.
transcript under cut!

Q: If Elliot had kids would they also bee eel-ified?
A: -Elliot, gesturing at a drawing of him as a baby with his two human parents- "easy answer here: probably not. While there's some degree of genetics to the whole shebang, mostly it's kinda random. (using my family tree here so you can see uhhh..."
the parents are labeled as "Human Parents", baby-elliot is labeled as "eel baby". the parents are saying "there's something wrong with our baby huh" and the eels are screaming.
below them is another baby labeled "newer fancier son: reality manipulation baby". he is happy and thriving and in a spotlight with glitter.
