I actually remembered to do one this year lol. Shout out to Dark Souls 2 for making me transgender. #MakeATerribleComicDay #MakeATerribleComicDay2026

Simple black and white comic, titled "Signs"

Panel 1: Scene of a beach with a partially opened stone coffin at the shoreline. A knight whose face is obscured by a helmet is looking at the coffin from a distance. There is a "?" above his head. A crude faximily of the Dark Souls II UI is drawn overtop the panel.

Text reads: "Theres a semi-secret area in Dark Souls II with a coffin that changes your gender."

Panel 2: The knight is leaning over the coffin. A promt to "Enter?" action, with the option "YES" selected is floating next to them.

Text: "In typical Dark Souls fashion..."

Panel 3: The knight, whos gender has unknowingly been changed, is sitting in the coffin, looking at a floating message next to her that says "The nature of your being has changed." There are now three question marks above the knight's head.

Text: "...this is not explained."

Panel 4: The knight, still fully armored, is walking through a torchlit hall. The text "*vaguely feminine walk cycle*" is written at the bottom of the panel. An arrow labeled "(Clueless.)" points at the knight.

Text: "I didn't notice for hours (since I was wearing armor)

Panel 5: The knight is now in her underwear, inspecting her body with a shocked expression. Her armor lays scattered on the floor around her. She exclaims: "WTF Im a girl now?"

Text: "I caught on pretty quick the next time I went to swap my gear around"

A second page of the previous comic

Panel 1: A figure, facing away from the viewer, stares at a laptop screen. The scene from the previous panel can be seen.

Text: "For some *strange* reason, this didnt bother me" (note that strange is in bolder text)

Panel 2: The figure from the previous panel is now being veiwed from the front. They are holding a video game controller and facing directly towards the veiwer. Their body is illuminated by the laptop screen (now the viewer's POV). While the figure does not have any facial features, they have a short haircut and patchy stubble is seen on their face. An arrow labled "(Clueless.)" is pointing at the figure.

Text: "Some strange, unknown reason..."

Panel 3: The knight, now back in her armor (except for the helmet) is walking. She has a smile on her face.

Text: "I don't change back."

Panel 4: The panel is split down the middle. On the left side, a mustachiod man in medieval armor is leaping into the stone coffin from above. On the right side, a woman wearing the same armor leaps out of the stone coffin.

Text: "I'm so fascinated by it, all of my later playthroughs start with speedrunning to the coffin to change from male to female."

Panel 5: A self portrait of the artist with a vacant but happy expression on her face, looking somewhere off panel. An arrow labeled "(Clueless)" is pointing at her.

Text: "Somehow it will still be 7 YEARS before I realize I'm transgender" (note that "7 years" is bold and written in red, the only color used in the comic)

Got there in the end though! Happy pride (punctuated by a heart)

#MakeATerribleComicDay is written below the final panel.

Two panel comic drawn in mspaint. Title: "Executive Function"

Panel 1: a girl with dark wavy hair and round glasses is sitting down at a desk. A digital drawing tablet is in front of her. The girl is thinking: "I should make a comic for today... before its over." The time the panel is taking place at is indicated in the top right corner as "12:30 PM"

Panel 2: the girl has turned to look over her shoulder (facing away from the viewer and towards the top right corner of the panel). The timestamp has changed to read 12:30 AM - indicating the day has passed. The AM is written in red, with dotted lines indicating the girls gaze. The girl says "Oh whoops."

I had the good fortune to take a trip out to the midwest earlier this year. Words cannot describe what it felt like seeing stars like this for the first time.

Image of the night sky over a house in the distance. The milky way can be seen rising in a vertical columm over the horizon, along with countless stars. Shades of blue amd gold can be seen between the points of light.
