kawaiidaigakusei at Oct. 30, 2017, midnight



Six weeks ago, at the end of my article titled "Psychopomps and Death Personified", I asked the question: Can you think of any examples of the personification of Death in a comic? How about on Drunk Duck (Yes, you can plug your own comic)?

Talking is Action Too

Tantz_Aerine at Oct. 28, 2017, midnight
