It's a pretty recent webcomic with amazing art. The story and characters look pretty promising. It's about a girl named Ava and the demon that shares a body with her. I can't exactly explain much more than that since the comic isn't too far along; a bunch of other things are explained (such as the origins of Ava's demon), but the webcomic isn't too long yet and I'd rather not spoil everything that's been revealed so far.

I caught up on the comic so far, and I enjoyed it. The artwork's in a style I really like. Are the updates just one comic at a time though? That'd be slow going.

Thanks Poui.

EDIT: I htink they go up in bunches, since I hit "Latest" and it brought me to about 7 or 8 before it went to the main page again

Yeah, what Ulta said. Seems to me this thing has been in the works for a while. Have you checked out the pages for cast, merchandise, etc? There are silhouettes for future characters, she already has prints, t-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, throw pillows. Her forums seem organized. She certainly seems smart and quite prepared.

That said, I have become taken with this thing almost instantly. It shows a lot of promise. The budding characterization and plot seems cool, as well as the setting. Future sci-fi stuff and cursed wine with possessed souls and some dreamscapes? Very interesting, not to mention that the art is amazing. The shifts in style are impressive. Terri and I read through everything right after this thread was posted. I'll definitely be keeping up on this. Maybe even donate some if I have the spare cash. I want to see where this thing goes.

(I did laugh and roll my eyes at Ava's demon's name, but it seemed pretty self-aware to me.)

Well, when you're an intergalactic space demon thing ruling a vast empire, you kind of tend to get dramatic with name choices. It makes sense her parents named her Wrathia. Or that she took it for herself. Whatever.

So this recent update means Gil's probably going to have some sort of horrible backstory. ;w;

I enjoyed this and look forward to more.

... Is it strange that it reminds me of Homestuck?

I don't know about strange but I don't see a lot of similarities. The character color schemes, maybe?

I really want to see how Maggie responds to Gil.

Colour schemes and maybe the integration of video reminds you of Homestuck, Amy?

I followed the link in your blog and blitzed through it. It seems maybe a little teenage fantasy, but the characters are interesting and show some promise, and I love the magic realism moments, ie. pulling a drawer out of your chest.

But yeah, I'll keep an eye on this from now on, I suppose. :3

I'm totally digging the colors and the composition. Yeah it's a little teenagy but it's good enough that I can buy it. I can't wait to see more of it.

Yeah, the similarities are obvious.

I'm also pretty sure that the creator contributed track art to one of the music releases at one point.

And so more of Gil's backstory beings to unravel. I wonder how exactly Nevy attached her soul to him.

In addition, since Nevy has no memories of her past life (according to the wiki, since I don't remember everything I read), it isn't so surprising that the soul she's attached to is so loyal to Titan.

Also, found out that the webcomic apparently spent years in development (I read that it was apparently eight years?) and actually started being published online a year ago.

When Gil showed his Titan obsession, he was down right creepy.

It's kickstarter time!

Also, I'm bored of Gil ;_; Too much blue for my tastes!
