Happy Thing #8: Fanworks

thistlechaserAt first this post was going to be about Unsounded, an amazing webcomic. It's one of those fanworks that boggle me that it's free -- the art is so good! The story is wonderful! I love one of the main characters so much!
(Can you use 'fanworks' for an original webcomic? Insert more fitting word, if not!)
Unsounded is set on some other world where magic works. In it a young girl thief and her "attack zombie" have a mission to accomplish. A slight warning: The young girl is annoying at first, but her behavior is later explained. It's well worth sticking with it. The "zombie" is just... wow. Such a rich, wonderful, character. I love him in all ways that wouldn't be illegal to love an undead man.
I'm only five chapters in (it's on chapter eight), but the story is so great. The world it's set in is so richly detailed! And her artwork... just wow, I can't believe she's not getting paid for it.
But, while this one webcomic does make me happy, I wanted to expand #8 further: There's so much good fanart, fanfics, webcomics, original fiction, etc out there, it's a wonder that it's all free. Endless entertainment, people working so hard on what they write or draw and then sharing it with the world, it makes the net so much of a better place.
