Anyone feel like playing shiritori? (English-language version.)

The rule is to rec a webcomic that starts with the last letter of the previous rec. [ETA: if the last letter is a vowel, you can use the preceding consonant instead.] Include a link, and a short summary/about. You can write up that part yourself if you want...I just grabbed the official summaries from the websites.

So, for instance, starting with the last comic where I sat down and read a chapter in one sitting:

Widdershins
"A series of Victorian-era adventure stories, set in the fictional town of Widdershins, West Yorkshire- England’s magical epicentre, home to bounty hunters, failed wizards, stage magicians, and more, besides."

That title ends with an S, so I need a title starting with S for the next rec:

Spectra Spell
"13 year old Vera has recently moved to the small town of Vättered, Sweden — a seemingly unremarkable place at first, but strange things are happening and everything might not be what it seems. SpectraSpell is a story about kids and magic, and what it really means to be different."

Next commenter, give us a rec where the title starts with L, and so on from there!

(Just don't rec anything that starts with a number or a symbol, because I think you'll break the game.)

What's a rec?

A recommendation.

Let's see if I can get this ball rolling somewhat!

Lapse

Bianca Fortune knew her house was haunted, but she never thought she would end up among its ghosts.

Ripped from her listless life in a freak accident, Bianca finds herself stranded in the company of souls more lost and confused than her own, and a malevolent entity is looming closely behind her...

This is an excellent horror/thriller story that I have been following for a long time!

Awesome, that gives me an opening to share an early-'00s throwback favorite.

Elf Only Inn
Elf Only Inn is a comic about Internet roleplaying chatrooms, where all the screen names are "characters" interacting in a fantasy world. It's like a regular chatroom where everyone is out to get cybersexed, but with elves. Only, there really aren't very many elves in Elf Only Inn. Or, for that matter, any real roleplaying.

I'm down! Terrible at writing synopses, but hey... let's give it a go.

Novae

A story set in 17th century France about a mysterious traveler and an apprentice astronomer who meet in the library of the Academy of Sciences. It's a quiet romance set against the backdrop of the scientific revolution, and while I'm not caught up on it right now, I definitely need to do that today.

Uh-oh, two E's in a row. Hope that doesn't keep happening, because I'm running low on alphabetically-appropriate recs....

Eerie Cuties
A PG-13 comedy/horror webcomic series that's created and drawn by Gisèle Lagacé, which follows the adventures of Layla and Nina Delacroix, two vampire sisters, at Charybdis Heights.

(This one didn't have a working summary page on the website, so I borrowed one from TVTropes.)

Soul to Call

The sky ripped open and what came through turned the world into a waking nightmare. Avril seeks a way to find her father and summons an Anathema to help her... things do not go as she expects.

She must dodge monsters, both the traditional and human types in her quest to reconnect with her family.

La Morphine Noire

It takes place in a world as messed up as ours
and nothing but plenty of coffee, a good bit of ignorance and a little bit of magic will help to set some order in this mess.
Mood, Mystery, and Magic.
Reuven is a detective, and a wizard, and in for more trouble than he counted on.

Evil Witch Allie

A comic about some average kids dealing with normal teen problems like babysitting the world’s worst magical girl, solving yet another murder, and getting that darn ghost cat to stop sleeping on the keyboard. (Paraphrased from the site.)

(There's a lot of stuff that ends with E, so maybe we can make a rule that you can use the last appearing vowel or consonant in the name?)

LeyLines - After a train heist murder attempt goes wrong, three royal siblings must unravel the conspiracy that's ensnaring the empire - as well as their own tangled relationships and past.

Luckily there's plenty of stuff that starts with S!

Here's one: Shattered Starlight! Farah Shaughnessy is a bitter ex-magical girl trying to hold down a job and make a normal life for herself ten years after her world-saving team disbanded. When strange things start happening around her again, she must choose to face the things she’s been running from all these years, or put down her astral weapon and walk away for good.

Wikipedia suggests "if the last word ends with a vowel, you can use the preceding consonant instead." Which sounds reasonable to me.

Anyone have strong opinions about whether a title beginning with "The X" should count as a T or an X? (Or both?)

In the meantime, here's one that works either way:

The Tea Dragon Society
The story of Greta, a blacksmith apprentice, and the people she meets as she becomes entwined in the enchanting world of tea dragons. (Complete short story, super cute.)

Thread's gone quiet, so I'm gonna self-reply and see what happens.

Year in Hereafter
Year In Hereafter is an indie fantasy webcomic inspired by the Finnish Folklore and the Finnish national epic, Kalevala. The story resides in a few separate realities, one of them being our world and the modern age, and a fictional universe based on Kalevala's poetry and stories.

Retroblade

RetroBlade is a long-form Science Fantasy Comic.
It features Time Travel and symbiotic forces known as Augments.
Time traveling in an effort to find the event that caused the crash of realities. Lovely art, great storyline, lots of Jam..

One of my favorites!

Gotta say, I'm enjoying the heck out of RetroBlade so far. (Just finished the first chapter.)

Going by the "last consonant before those pesky silent vowels" rule...

Dandy and Company

Misadventures of a dog and his boy, their families, their friends, and the occasional hyperintelligent robot/secret agent/evil nemesis. The author describes it as a mix of Looney Tunes, DuckTales, and Peanuts. Made its internet debut in 2001, though everything posted before the Tumblr relaunch is now only available in print volumes.
