Making the Vattu plushie!!! :). I modified the fanzine pattern to add 2 extra rows on the last all sc row repeat. The felt stuff is my first time ever doing anything like it, and I'm super happy with the results!!!. the little pieces pinned to the bottom of the head are the first finger pieces.

SPOILERS FOR VATTU AHEAD. go read the comic before proceeding! its really good youre gonna like it. little girl becomes a badass revolutionary via the power of teamwork and empathy

tfw you take unweight for the first time and become somehow even more of an anticolonial revolutionary

vattu whitemark deserves all of heaven.

"are they lovers?" "worse."

I just finished binging Vattu and i want to weep with joy, i had no idea how starved I'd been for a webcomic like this. It been ages since I read somthing so fucking original and powerful, somthing thats going to permanently leave a crater on my brain the way webcomics like Digger, Zebra Girl, Kid Radd, Subnormality and more did

The vibes kinda Oddworld, in the sense that theres all these sentient alien races inhabiting the same planet and interacting with each other, some more advanced then others and making that the less advanced race's problem

But its plot starts to lean more into a kinda Game of Thrones-ish situation rather then a "fuck capitalism" theme (tho it goes hard on "fuck colonization")

And man do i love these various species designs!

Anyway its peak and you won't fucking regret reading it

Vattu (the comic) is kind of a Homestuck. Several color coded kids swept up in something bigger than them. Especially the Grish's combat divination feels like Evan Dahm's commentary on classpect analysis. (I only make this connection because Evan Dahm literally wrote a comic for Paradox Space, otherwise I would dismiss most parallels as coincidence.)

The colors of combatants' markings (their aspects, basically) represent societal forces and mtg color pie type philosophies and associations, and the course of a fight between two characters is analyzed for omens for future events. It feels like Dahm's gesturing at all the Homestuck fans rushing after a big flash drops to speculate on each scene's implications for how the comic is going to end.

Vattu’s journey is just beginning but already she’s gone through so much. I…

The Book Book Advent Calendar – Day 15

Une boîte de taille moyenne, mais de poids pas léger. Rempli de bande dessinées, et quelles bandes ! Vattu, Akira, Dr. McNinja, Watchmen, Stand Still, Stay Silent, etc. Je me demande si j'ai besoin de tout ces livres, en déballant toutes mes boîtes. Mais il y a quelque chose de très spécial dans les pages de Wimbledon Green et La librairie de tous les possibles qui me rappelle que c'est plus fort que moi. Que ce soit une obsession ou une vocation, les livres viennent me chercher. Et je vais chercher les livres.
