An Odd Seat
UPDATE: The webcomic I talk about in this post is no longer available. Sad times.
My recent webcomic read on Webtoon is ‘Is chair still in the park?’ by fivebatss — it’s weird AF, and I love it.
This is a frankly odd horror-ish comic, told partly in one-panel instalments, with deliberately varied art styles ranging from the detailed to the extremely basic, and following the point of view (PoV) of a sentient chair.
Yes, a sentient chair.
That, oddly enough given the title, begins this story in the park. A park with police tape.
Expect blood and gore in various forms, and a vibe that keeps reminding me of YouTube analog horror/ARG series The Walten Files, though probably less nightmare-inducing.
(If you’re a horror fan, I really rec. the Walten Files (major flashing images warning, though,) — if you scare easily, then I rec. staying AS FAR AWAY FROM THE WALTEN FILES AS POSSIBLE.)
Maybe it’s the constantly shifting art styles, which The Walten Files also does… it makes things unsettled and even more off-key than they already are.
