>Courtney Crumrin is not a happy camper. Her mom and dad, after years of living beyond their means, have at last found a solution to their financial difficulties. They're moving to the burbs, into the home of their rich uncle, Professor Aloysius Crumrin. Old man Crumrin's huge Victorian mansion is par for the course in the well-to-do neighborhood of Hillsborough. However, as Courtney soon discovers. Uncle Aloysius has a sinister reputation throughout the district, and he and his home are shrouded in dark rumor. And while this new arrangement allows her parents their much-desired boost in social status, Courtney feels as though she's landed in a nightmare. One where she is an outcast among her new spoiled classmates. And if that weren't bad enough, the moldering old mansion seems to house even stranger creatures than Mom and Dad or Uncle Aloysius.>They crawl about the dark corridors, just out of sight. They crunch bones in the corner. And sometimes they'll climb up on the bed and watch Courtney while she sleeps. Mom and Dad don't notice them, but Uncle Aloysius knows all about them. He calls them "the Night Things."Been meaning to do this one for OctoberHere's Volume 1 of Courtney Crumrin, Courtney Crumrin and the Night Things
Bump if you're readingI will be skipping most inessential pagesApologies if I go MIA during this
Forgot to mention, this series was originally in black and white
>>155685677Why is she a Roblox model?
>>155685795Was about to ask if this is a new reprint... derp.Volumes 1 and 2 are amazing, bumping for new readers. There were so many great comics coming out back then.
>>155686058>...And then Axel dies and nobody including the MC gave shit because he was a fucking looser That's not exactly how i though things would go when he got introduced.
>>155686648While the guy was a douche, i feel cursing was a bit uncalled for, only reasson he got a bit rapey near the end was because of the spell Courtney herself cast, and other than that worst thing he did was ignore her.
umm could you fuck that thing?
>>155686778I don't think the bit rapey part was caused by the spell, he's an asshole in general. He got off easy.
>>155687745>>155687762I love this resolution. Get rekt, bitch.
>>155686153No, see, he's mentioned, indirectly, here! >>155686226
And that concludes Courtney Crumrin Vol. 1: The Night ThingsThanks for the bumps
>>155685504The sinopsis alone makes me want to read this.
>>155687978Oh, didn't know Polly and the Pirates got a sequel. Then again, somehow I don't recall if I read the whole original mini.
>>155687441It's the first one. The world has far too many morons
>>155687147Wizards, no sense of right or wrong.
I got time and it won't reach the image so I'll go ahead and do Volume 2: The Coven of Mystics as well
>>155690851why is some pepo almost humons and some pokeymans?
>>155690961>RawheadUh-oh, I've seen this one.
>>155691195>>155691210Ah yes, the Conan school of putting down ageless human eating monsters.
>>155685732Never thought I'd see a>What are THOSEin the wild again.
And that concludes Volume 2 of Courtney Crumrin, The Coven of Mystics
>>155685746>>155685776Bargain bin Carmelita Spats
>>155692490where nose?
>>155686058>I'm sorry to say that no one missed him all that muchKid was just a little wuss. He did not deserve this.
>>155692508https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InGoGdADJ50
>>155686341That one girl crying at her loss while still being under the glamour spell is wickedly disturbing.
>>155686648>casually cursing randosDumbass move. Uncle said not to draw attention to yourself but whatever
>>155687147>>155687163Bad end for kids toll is crazy high in this comic.
>>155687795>>155687780Uncle has gotten much younger all of a sudden. Guess those "Swiss clinics" work miracles...>>155685658
>>155690865From varying degrees of fae blood mixing in over time, most likely. Lovecraft described something similar with "The Innsmouth Look".
>>155692508Not OP, but it's a thing Ted does. He draws Courtney without a nose, seemingly for no reason as everyone else has noses.In his other series Polly the Pirate the main character has weird Powerpuff Girl stumps instead of feet and everyone else is normal. It's a stylistic choice he makes, but no idea why. Polly at least has a nose.Pic related, it didn't put me off.
>>155693433>>155692508I think it's just a way to the main character more distinctLike Astrid Bromure's eyes or Doug's skin tone
>>155691195>>155691210BASED
>>155691358Always a fan of cat lore.
Tommy Rawhead and Bloody Bones arrives at Hogwarts, how fucked is everyone there?
>>155691599A HOT ELF BOYFRIEND for Courtney?!
>>155691565Like that the artist made sure to emphasize the fairy dick.
>>155692490Thanks for posting
>>155692666Well Satan, maybe the effect would've been even stronger if that girl was made to smile like the girl next to her, and still had that tear on her eye.
>>155685504Ted Naifeh is one of my faves, got the Courney books when they were floppies.
>>155692490Thanks for posting. I got the first volume back when it was black and white, and I still think the art is stronger like that. Glad to finally read the second volume, there was some good stuff in there
>>155692356>>155692372>MC just straight out murders someone in cold blood>And then she learns to be a better person and not be indifferent to the plights of othersThe tone of this comic feels like if Hellblazer was published by Scholastic.
>>155695041I think certain characters look better in the original printingTommy Rawhead for example as well as funnily enough, Courtney herself
To be fair, the colour in the deluxe version is still suitably subdued. For me it's not as clear as something like Bone being better in black and white, I may even prefer Courtney in colour.
