So DaFukin’ Wheel has spoken again. It is DeadEndia. So this was based off of a 5 minute cartoon and I can see it. The art style gives me an Adventure Time feel from it. Looks like it is about another group of human kids dealing with wacky ghostly shenanigans. So time to get this comic cracking!
I guess in the nuclear winter people have resorted to spiritual enlightenment with hockey sticks at the local theme park
Damn that was fast. Jumping the gun already
Rescue Mission Yo!!
He collects ghosts, and it looks like those guys from the cover...The Main Characters DIED???
DeadEndia End
So that is the end of chapter one of Deadendia.
So first..That was gay. Don’t think I didn’t notice the lesbian couple who was touring with their son at the beginning of this chapter. Cause I saw them. Then we have Barney who is trans. I mean, the binder was a pretty big (but subtle) clue that he was trans, so I am pretty sure he is trans. Which is nice to see some representation all up in here!
Barney is a lovable doof who just really loves his dog. Norma is pretty chill for knowing that her job is filled with literal demons. The demon crowd reminds me of a group of college kids for some reason. Everyone actually is giving me a college feel to it.
The art is pretty nice. It feels like a comic series made in response to a cartoon. (which seeing how it was based an a 5 minute animation video, it was). The style does remind me of Adventure Time and Steven Universe, and the colors were fun and expressive.
For the plot, I like the set up this first chapter has. Old worn down Haunted House attraction now has actual literal demons to boost up popularity. Two buds are looking out for one another since it seems like Barney got kicked out (three guesses why...ugh). And now the dog talks, so we have some fun animal companions too. Plus with the hinted overarching plot of Future Scarf Man “testing” them for the next chapters, yeah it has a nice set up.
Unfortunately, I do not think I will continue to blog about this series. When I looked up DeadEndia, the first link I got took me to a page where the Author was going to stop the webcomic in a webcomic version. Instead they are going to continue to publish this as a book series (found right here and here if anyone was interested). So because of the switch in format, I don’t have a lot of material to blog about, and I don’t really want to spoil the end of the first book here. So I decided to just stop at the first chapter.
If you like this chapter, you can finish the first book online on their tumblr or just buy the book (it seems to be $10-$15 so price wise it is pretty good). I know it is something that I am going to grab myself.
He’s lying on a manniquins lap like a weird furry human. This demon is so weird, and yeah I’m with barney. Even if possessed, the dog is still beautiful
Barney’s got the clapback. Well done sir!
