"Digger is a story about a wombat. More specifically, it is a story about a particularly no-nonsense wombat who finds herself stuck on the wrong end of a one-way tunnel in a strange land where nonsense seems to be the specialty. Now with the help of a talking statue of a god, an outcast hyena, a shadow-being...
After years of reading and study I have a deal with myself: I no longer read books that directly or indirectly tell me (or anyone else) that I'm (or they're) a second-class citizen. Time's up.
In picking this book up I was intrigued by the promise of weird and surreal creatures in context of an adventure...

This is an ongoing webcomic of which I am one or two updates behind.
It's a comic, but published online and no it's not like manga-scanalations. This is carefully crafted by the author with animations and music and so much colour-OHMYGOSH it's beautiful.

Questionable Content, Vol. 1
Author | Jeph Jacques |
ISBN | 0982486251 |
After Goodreads popped this up in my recommendations so many times I decided to track down a copy. Fun book! At first I wasn't sure but the storytelling and art quickly grow in confidence as the book progresses. Love the characters! The humor is rather sex-obsessed but then what do you expect with a title...

I was never a big fan of this part of the story. When I first read it, I didn't mind, but on rereading it the first few times, I noticed how it changed the direction of the story completely.
It is good, and I'm glad to get more info on the spark and even the different characters, as well...
I began reading this serial not here, at the beginning, but several years into the narrative. I did not realize starting later that Hazel was supposed to be the main character; it seemed to me to be divided fairly equally between several main characters, with overlapping secondary characters passing...
Prologue and Chapter 0 of the webcomic!
The same old story . . .
An ancient evil resurrected, a world of dreams in peril . . . you know how it goes. What we need is a legendary hero, but what we've got is Cucumber, a boy who's better suited to studying than monster-slaying. He's just been accepted...

Holy hell. I have a new favourite webcomic.
I backed this book ages ago on a random search for publishing on Indiegogo, since then I've refrained from reading the comic so that I could read it (well, the first 280~ pages) in one bash in book form as I much prefer. God, I'm gonna be up til 4 reading the...
