Heyo!

If you know me, you know that I love web comics. From the simple, single strip series to a long running series… I just really, really love web comics! They’re a great source of inspiration, ideas, and a source of budding, new, and wonderful artists of all styles, skill sets, and ideologies.

For this ‘series’ of recommendations, I’m going to list three web comics that I’m currently reading and enjoying.

Just a note: I’m going to be using artists who have multiple comics in progress. Expect a lot of repeats!

We all know what caricatures are; lovely renditions of a person’s face with some exaggerations to key features, often are insulting or flattering, and are amazing to look look at…?

Then you partly know what Kirkatures are. Kirkatures are based around caricatures, but they’re done by the wonderful local artist Adam Kirk. His Kirkatures (yes, I’m going to be calling them by that name now for this post!) are wonderful drawn and appealing to look at; in fact, I had one done for myself –

28B72609-4AD3-40D1-82FC-BE31CC3AAE95_zpshrb6a9lk – it’s one of the best things I’ve spent twenty dollars on, which for normal, everyday, non-Kirkatures caricatures…It’s a good price in my humble opinion. For events, he only charges 100 dollars – which is, again, a really wonderful price for an artist (in my opinion, he could so much better for his skill!).

Along with this wonderful Kirkatures, he also help work on an online comic series called “The Adventures of Spandex Panda“, a series about a Panda who lives a life of free style and bicycling – his main source of transpiration, leaving his home; the Bamboo Forest.

From the conversation I had with Adam, which was the greatest conversations I had this weekend,

You want to know more about Adam Kirk and the Spandex Panda? Well, click on the links below and enjoy them both in all of their wonderful nature.

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice – Online Webcomic.

Interested in a Magical Girl comic series? Loving the idea of science, alchemy, and ancient magic all mixing together? Mythic creatures, spirits of rings, magicians and even adorable familiars?
Also, does an interesting story style, a unique anime-esque design and a little – say – romance?

Well, how about you read The Sorcerer’s Apprentice by one and only Bwillett? You know, the creator of the one and only Cardcaptor Torika – a CardCaptor Sakura fan comic? Or even known for her work as the creator of Midnight Menagerie, a horror series of a young boy named Shawn Wilcocks?

You might be wondering, what is The Sorcerer’s Apprentice all about? What you gave us isn’t selling us yet – what could else could we know?

Well, its about a young, seventeen year old girl named Victoria Evans. Who is, in all honestly, not as normal as she may seem to be. While being in love with creating her own clothing as an artistic out light, she’s also into history. And while her best friends are the head of the Drama Club and the only female on an all male wrestling team…She never quite expect for her whole world to be turn upside down after a school trip to the museum.

Upon finding a seemingly ordinary ring and accidentally putting it on, she unleashed a world of traumatic changes and unexpected surprises. Inside the ring resided Allister – a soul who locked himself inside of the ring to seal up the horrors of the world. With his knowledge and expertise of all things magic, he and Victoria must destroy what has been unleashed onto the world…

What else happens? Well, you just need to read the comic online all the way from chapter one.

Bwillet, herself, while being a terrific author and artist alike, has a little predicament in her life currently. I wont get into details, since its not my place to say, but I do recommend giving her commission listing a check and perhaps even ordering her books online when you get a chance.

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, along with Midnight Menagerie are two wonderful series made by a wonderful creator, and I can not stress enough of how much it’ll mean to both her and I if you give her some traffic. Besides, you might just find something you’ll enjoy on her site.
