Better Than Real Life, 'Cause
You Can Fly
Original
Comics/Art
Original
comics and art usually in tune with the anime/manga/gamer/comic
etc. genre. For veterans and newbies alike; for those
new to Japanese animation/comics and whatnot, go here
for an introduction.
All
comics stay mostly within PG-13 area and may feature
adult jokes, satires, and/or dangerous situations
that could result in severe injury or death in real
life; please read with caution.
(In other words, don't play around with drugs or jump
off cliffs or anything.) ALWAYS surf from posted links
with caution, though staff members try to provide
some sort of warning if a link leads to particularly
adult material.
The
comics and art on this section of the website are
original unless otherwise stated, and are copyright
© Adamus Prime and Amethist Tomoe as specified.
They are NOT to be used on any other website unless
permission is requested and granted beforehand.

There are numerous examples
of how amateur artists produce massively-popular comics
without publishing companies behind them: doujinshi (fan
comics) in Japan, webcomics holding solid pages on the Internet,
fan artists online and at conventions selling their work
to eager and impressed fans. Amateur/paper-unpublished art
is a unique and remarkable sub-sect of the comic industry
and currently enjoys a blooming popularity. Amethist Tomoe
and Adamus Prime of Sleep is for the Weak are active members
of this subculture, and these special pages will feature
both their fanwork and their unique original art.
Oh, and please don't attempt
the spectacularly poorly-thought-out schemes and accidents
portrayed in the original comics. The staff is in enough
trouble with the police as it is.

Amethist's work is a
happy medium between shoujo (girls') and shounen (boys')
comics, where the characters are sharp-lined and pretty
and the wit is fast and random. Her current major
project, now known simply as "Orpheus,"
is shaping up to be a very wicked piece indeed.

Adamus
Prime's creativity and talent for the wacky is unmatched.
His work has a finely-mixed Western/Eastern flavor
to it, as punk-ska superheroes and evil pretty boys
skip hand-in-hand in his comics. His major project,
"Jukebox Heroes," has been in the works
for years and is sure to please Western comics/alternative
comics/Japanese comics fans on its rapidly-approaching
debut.
