HonkyTonk Hustlers

IT'S BACK. UPDATES 1 PAGE EVERY FRIDAY. The modern vibe of hip-hop culture merges with the timeless aesthetic of the 1920's in a brand new webcomic about ambition. Inspired by the unique sound of Japanese electronic-swing rap, HonkyTonk Hustlers tells the story of two men from completely different worlds, taking on the big city and it's music market in the midst of the Great Prohibition of Rap Music in the 1920's era. Set in an alternate universe, the history of our world is irrelevant- however, the musical history of the past manifests itself in it's own ways. Jin, a hard-working country boy born to overseas immigrants, has known nothing but honesty and dedication his entire life. Raymond, the wealthy heir to a politician, finds himself penniless after a mysterious fire destroys his peaceful existence. The lives of these two men collide in the most electrifying of ways- right in the heart of the big city of Neumoney. HAVE YOU EVER DEVOTED YOURSELF TO ANYTHING? Then follow us.

K's Auto Parts: Definitely Not a Criminal Empire

It's the mid 1920s, the height of prohibition in America. Janie's an ex-dance-troupe sweetheart with a flair for the dramatic and big dreams in the Big Apple. Kay's a car mechanic (definitely not a mob boss) with an exciting night life and a penchant for men's clothing. Could I make it any more obvious? K's Auto Parts is an episodic anthology about two queer women in the 1920s that incorporates multi-media elements such as sound and frame animation. Updates at 2pm EST on Tuesdays, with breaks between each chapter. TW: While cartoon-y and usually lighthearted in nature, K's Auto Parts contains images and themes that may be upsetting for some readers, including swearing, blood/violence, guns and other weapons, as well as depictions and use of drugs and alcohol. Particularly egregious or dark episodes will be marked as mature as needed.
