Brilliance in a webcomic.

Gunnerkrigg Court.

I don't know where I got the pointer to it, but... wow.

Go back to the beginning, read from number one. Set aside some time.

It's just... wow. I really can't express how much I like love this comic.

It has magic, and faeries, and ghosts, and dragons, and demons, and robots, and gods, and a forest, and a school, and myth, and a history, and hidden -- revealed in hints and flashes -- past, and a deep understanding of esotericism, and characters with pathos.

And cool art. And evocative concepts.

I've been working my way steadily through the archive. I'm not normally much of a fan of web comics but you're right; this is a good one. I particularly like Coyote... but you were expecting that, right?

No, that comes as a complete surprise.
