Magick Chicks - Tiffany

Tiffany
Tiffany?  Who's Tiffany?  Clearly that is Artemis Academy's MASKED AVENGER!  Or at least that's what Tiffany wants us to think/thinks we think.  She is also the resident wanabe monster hunter of Magick Chicks, which makes it ironic that she's training a witch and is best friends with a vampire.  To say she's not the most effective monster hunter in the world would be an understatement.

Magick Chicks - Melissa

Another direct spin off of Eerie CutiesMagick Chicks tells the story of three witches transferred to a all girls monster hunting academy as punishment for causing trouble at their old school.  The three must keep their identities as supernaturals a secret while going about their daily highschool lives, lest they be slain by a hoard of fanatic huntresses.  (first comic)

Melissa Hellrune
Melissa is the leader of the Hellrune coven and the main protagonist of the story.  At first glance she's your typical queen bee wannabe, although she genuinely cares for her friends.  Arrogant and proud to a fault, much of the story deals with her getting thoroughly knocked down by life and slowly building herself back up along with the help of a somewhat air headed huntress in training and a magical girl heritage she'd rather forget.

Oh yeah, we also find out that she's a magical girl witch.  Or is that witch magical girl?  Well, you get the idea.  It's one of those series.

Dream sequence or a loose interpretation of a "causal dress code?"  You decide!

Go Get a Roomie! - Roomie

Imagine if you will a slice of life story with oodles upon oodles of colorful characters that explores the meaning of open love.  If you imagined the San Francisco Castro during the sixties, I wouldn't blame you.  And you wouldn't be that far off from the feeling one gets when reading Go Get a Roomie.

The series follows the adventures of Roomie, a wild, happy go lucky girl who is constantly wandering into people's lives and sometimes their bedrooms.  Most of the story after the first couple of chapters focus on her interactions with Lillian, a woman who's affinity for sleep borders on narcoleptic.  Many, many antics ensue.

In short, a story about the light hearted side of a kinky life that mixes beer, sex, and heartwarming character moments that will make you laugh one page and go "Awwww!" the next.  Not for the lover of angsty drama. (first comic)

Eerie Cuties - Layla

Layla Delacroix
Layla is Nina's older sister and also a student at Charybdis Heights High.  A more traditional blood sucking vampire, Layla finds her little sister's desire to feed exclusively off chocolate to be irritating.  She often tries to teach Nina to be a "proper" vampire but so far her efforts have met with little no success.  You know, the usual older sister thing.

Eerie Cuties - Nina

Imagine if you will a high school for monsters.  A place where vampires, werewolves, succubi, melusine, witches, and more can be themselves while growing up.  Put another way, imagine a highschool were every member of the student body has super natural powers.  All the power of classic horror creatures packed into the body of a teenager with raging hormones and growing pains.  And yet the building hasn't collapsed in on itself.  Yet.

Thus is the premise of Eerie Cuties, a series of supernatural dramedies detailing the daily lives of a group of friends as they attend Charybdis Heights High School. (first comic)


Nina Delacroix
Nina is the youngest daughter of the Delacroixs, the local vampire family.  Born on Easter Sunday, she's the only known vampire who feeds on chocolate rather than blood.  A bit childish at times, her naive innocence can come across as either one of her most endearing or one of her most grating qualities depending on who you ask.




Never tell a demon you "have nothing to loose."  They might give your years to a classmate.

Ménage à 3 - Zii

Now here's one some of you might have heard about.  For those who might not have, Ménage à 3 in the broadest of terms is a "sitcom webcomic" based in Montreal.  It starts off with Gary, a 29 year old socially awkward geek, suddenly finding himself in need of two new apartment mates after his two current ones decide to get an apartment just for the two of them and make sweet homoerotic music together.  Luckily, or unluckily for the girl shy Gary, his two new apartment mates are two gals who are going to turn his world upside down. (First page.)

Most of the posts on this blog will be one series per post but Ménage à 3 has so many foot scenes between so many characters that I felt the need to break it up into three posts.  Anywho, first up it's:

Zii
Suzi, or Zii as she prefers to be called, is one of Gary's room mates, an aspiring musician, and a shameless flirt.  She swings both ways and has the prowess to bag virtually anyone she wants, although she does operate from a personal sense of ethics.  Oh, and one of her "sweet spots" is her toes.  Make of that what you will. ;)
