HELLO—
I am LOTHAR
I would like to introduce you to the Bi-Monthly spotlight on some of the forgotten or abandoned comics we have lingering in the basement of Drunk Duck. Who knows why they stopped updating or what their authours are up to now. I think here on DD we have a unique oportunity to dive into some real webcomic history. As a lot of other hosts have gone bust over the years, some of these comics may actually exixst only here on DD.
I will post 3 Today. Here are the 3:
FIRST one here is a story from 2008 called The Archivists by a DD member who goes by "thearchivists"
The Archivists
I thought this one had some cool looking art. Lokks like water color or something. And the concept was kinda cool. I'll just quote directly from the Author's about section : "People are starting to loose their memories which causes an influx in cases for The Arkivists. As memories begin to dissolve, a disenchanted academic known as The Pilgrim tries to re-create
Nephilims-archaic angel hybrids that once descended from the sky. Calling upon his connections with an ancient sect, The Pilgrim alchemically fuses organic objects that he purchases from an unassuming and uninformed young boy. After becoming disheartened with his failed experiments, he quickly realizes that the superiority of the Nephilims does not lie within the
carnate body but in spiritual embodiment. Capitalizing on the memory pandemic striking the
human population. The Pilgrim tries to resurrect the Nephilims by replacing the disappearing the
memories with those of the ancient cult. It is up to The Arkivists to restore the original memories
and stop The Pilgrim from a religion of synthetic remembrance. "
It's kind of a short story and I couldn't find any other instances of this comic online. Please post it if you know if the author has done anything else.

NEXT we have – Mist of The New World —
2014 by DD member - Zeleno
Mists of the New World
The description for the comic simply says "A sci-fi adventure in a strange universe !" Tha's my favorite kind of universe!
It's a little rough around the edjes and there is some wonky text but the story is pretty cool and I like the worldbuilding. I'm a sucker for desert localls and there's a mushroom planet. It feels like the author put a lot of thought into this unique world and it would be interesting to see where else the characters would have gone. It's too bad they quit, citing their alleged poor drawing skills as the reason and a derire to improve before coming back to this story. It makes me wonder if this artist is still out there somewhere on the web continuing this story under another pen-name.

Number THREE: I'm including this third one because it's about the unwilling brainwashed victim of human sacrifice and I'v never seen a webcomic about that. Have you ? The story ends abruptly.
