Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

Opened my eyes.

Seems like i'm gonna have to use smack jeeves, comic fury, and tapas currently. Tapas i'm not sure of since there's been drama surrounding copyright issues. webtoons might be okay but i'm skeptical of it. Perhaps when i get some steady income i might invest in owning a site.

As far as I am aware, the Tapas controversy stemmed from their summer creator program: https://www.monkeysfightingrobots.co/tapas-creator-incubator-program-red-flag-contract/

I'm not sure if that's still there in their main contract, but beware of sites that demand you surrender your IP in exchange for 'exposure.'

In other news, A Better Place is currently hitting a very large fan with all the poo poo it can muster. I kinda wanna give context for the latest page, but I feel like just posting it makes the actual context that much more juicy to see.

Yeah, I skipped the entirety of the comments section there. Actually, I tend to skip all comment sections when I can. I will say though, that I like how ABP uses both the descriptions and tags for the comic to tell extra bits of the story. It adds a neat kind of extra layer to each page.

Hell, she has some real shiny, scary eyes in the first episode. Subtle about it, this comic ain't.

E: also she jumped straight to burning ants with a magnifying glass when she had the chance.

I was skipping everything below the comic until I discovered there was world-building text in the description and had to go back and reread everything.

Oh good, someone I can ask for confirmation: Mr. Bun is pretty clearly linked to the eldritch being at the start, right? I'm holding out hope that said entity shows up again, it was great.

I read A Better Place and didn't like it. Felt like it was too fast-paced—no time for characterization, worldbuilding, or really anything at all other than pushing the plot forward at 100 km/hr.

I find it fun and evocative- it's not an all-time great but it's solid.
Also a lot of the characterization is in the author notes under every page.

How far along are you? If you're caught up, then Mr. Bun is definitely linked to the terrors. I believe the explanation is that the terrors are created by Hannah in her sleep, hence 'terrors' and all, and that anything strictly created by Hannah is somehow all linked together. The catch is that this only seems to apply to things Hannah created without meaning to do so. Mr. Bun was Hannah's first accidental creation, her first advisor, and kinda came into being almost instinctually. The terrors are definitely created instinctually, since Hannah makes them in her sleep. Mr. Bun has the ability to control terrors in a limited fashion. He can get them to go places and make them stop moving, or attack specific areas. We just don't know exactly why he's linked to them or how far his powers of control go or what exactly he's trying to do yet. My personal theory is that Mr. Bun is actually a terror, himself. He came to Hannah when she was desperate, exhausted, and almost at the end of her rope. I just went and looked, and the specific updates are 98-100 where all this is kind of explained.

Oh, yeah I knew that, but it looks like Mr. Bun might be related specifically to the deity-thing that gave Hannah her powers in the first place? Just, given some of the below-comic text seems to imply that Mr. Bun collecting the artifact bits is weakening the walls between here and wherever the other thing is.
