We never really talked about it but The Ugly Ducking that grew up to be a beautiful swan was still probably pretty fugly from a duck’s perspective

Microcomic Summer 2024: The Search for Cindermeowla

Happy Microcomic Summer day!

This year's comic is the Search for Cindermeowla, aka the tale of a prince who isn't very bright.

I had a completely different concept scripted, and then the image of Cindermeowla running down the stairs muscled its way into my brain and demanded context. Inspiration can be fickle that way!

Actually this has to be its own post, I hate how people treat the moral of the ugly duckling tale like it’s “don’t worry you’ll grow up to be beautiful”

no!!! It was never an ugly duckling because it was never a duck!!! It was a baby swan!!! A cygnet!!! It was never ugly to begin with!!! People only thought it was ugly because they were judging it by their own standards!!!! The moral is that you aren’t ugly, people just don’t see you as you are!!!!

Very cute!!! I only know of it via Ernest et Célestine.

Do you have a particular favorite myth?

Omg yes. I grew up in a french household and instead of the tooth fairy we had a tooth mouse. It's called "La Petite Souris", the little mouse. I am always surprised at how few people know about this little myth. Here's a little drawing I made a few years ago in another one of my art styles.

It's so messed up that the weird German version of Scheherazade's name is the one that's popularly used. Because of the racism I guess but also I can fucking spell Shahrazad correctly and I literally had to google Scheherazade to get it right.

I know you don't want to hear this, but how do we know that the tooth fairy isn't constructing some horrifying Naglfar-esque Armageddon war machine out of the milk teeth of human young??

Why do we just assume they're on our side when their whole deal is the nocturnal gathering of human body parts? If any other immortal being offered you money in exchange for your tooth, do you not think you'd have some serious reservations?? Use your heads people!!!

"My sister has beautiful eyes, verdant green..."

Envy Green is a horror fairy-tale about two sisters, the jealousy between them, and a spool of golden thread which promises to make dreams come true. Is it really such a good thing to have all eyes on you?

If you want to read the rest, it's free to download on itch here! I've been making this on and off for the last year and a half in my sketchbook so I'm excited to finally be sharing it
