Given my tastes, which web comics should I be reading?
RE: Given my tastes, which web comics should I be reading?

Ava's Demon has art that varies from fully-painted style (most of the time) to psychadelic-colored silhouettes (rarely) and occasionally actual animation, usually at arc endings. It's about a bullied girl, the titular Ava, trying to find her way through a rather dystopian if intriguing space opera setting with added magical elements. Sadly, I can't personally recommend it as such because the site wants to use far more scripting than I'm willing to turn on, especially for the animated episodes, so I've only read bits and pieces where someone prodded me enough to take a look past that. (Of course, my tolerance for cute internet layout and script stuff has severely declined over time, to the point that I don't allow pages to specify fonts or lately even colors other than my defaults, so I expect most people would find it more acceptable)

As noted at the top of the intro page, "This comic contains adult themes that may not be suitable for everyone. Reader discretion is advised!" Mostly, this is for bullying and violence, I believe, but there are some sexual themes as well.

Link is to the "archives" listing, which has a decent preview of the art style for arc dividers without major spoilers etc. I will note that the images here do tend much more heavily to the "silhouettes" style than the regular instalments, at least as far as I recall. A quick check of a couple of pages each from the first few chapters confirms all-painted, one with a screen flicker effect, and no silhouettes, so I may actually have been misremembering in the other direction. Some of the panels are downright beautiful, more than I remembered.
