Comic pimpin'

So some of you know that I have long been a fan of the Insecticomics - really well executed picture comics involving hilarious, meta-y Transformers action figures. It continues to be awesome, and incorporates many things I love, including references to TF stuff of all flavours in one big hodgepodge, blatant 4th wall breaking to comic effect, comic effect 4th wall breaking used for plot purposes, references to fandom and fanfic, and robot non-gender issues (or no-issues, as you prefer) :V

Well, the girl who makes them recently started a new comic as well, called Harbourmaster (link goes to the first comic, since it is still fairly new, but check out the other pages as well). It is graphic art, a page at a time, 2 updates per week, and often with an art update as well to round things out. The story is sci-fi futuristic, with hermaphroditic aliens, humans of various stripes, and a local insectoid population. I really like the way she characterizes people, both in writing and graphically. It is a lot more serious than Insecticomics, but I am enjoying it quite a lot, and since it is a small comic, I thought it deserved some pimping.

She also posts her updates for both comics, as well as character art and so forth, at her Deviant Art page.
