So I've got this idea for a webcomic...
It's been bouncing around in my noggin for about 5 years now, but I've just been too busy or lazy to actually start. I'm really hoping that'll change soon enough.
Working project title is Murk.
It's meant to be a black comedy noir set in Lovecraft Country, wherein main boi Esca Marsh (pictured above) solves spooky crimes in the small coastal town of Highwater. All the while having to regularly deal with monsters, mobsters, dirty cops, apocalyptic death cults, poachers, kidnappers, cannibals, creepy carnies, existential dread, and the crippling loneliness that comes with being a giant fish man trying to live semi-secretly among humans. If you've ever read Atomic Robo, that's a big inspiration for how I want the overall tone of the story to be.
A bit about Esca: - 28, M (He/Him), 6'6". - Pescatarian. Favorite food is sashimi. - Acutely self-conscious about his appearance, and will often stay hidden in order to avoid accidentally startling people. - Can heal from severe trauma, but can't regenerate lost appendages (granted, he's never tried). - Sews his own clothes back together when they get damaged, but isn't very good at it due to having big meaty claws. - Considered a lightweight by Deep One standards, but still significantly stronger than the average adult human. - Big fan of pulp-y sci-fi movies and magazines. - Likes to feed horseshoe crabs down by the pier in his spare time.
