Apparently, seeing the literal ghost of the victim doesn't make solving the murder any easier.

Sparky just wants to go home.

Let me tell you about Homestuck.

The Iron Ragdoll is heavily inspired by the webcomic Homestuck by Andrew Hussie, because I love that comic. You should read it too! ... Or not. Nope nope definitely not. The impact Homestuck has on a person lasts for a lifetime, whether you like it or not.

This was originally the backstory of a character, also called Sparky, in my Homestuck fan adventure. Then I decided to simply make it into my original comic. So, here it is.

And that's why this comic still smells Homestuck-y. Six-letter names, the aliased art, a lot of people wearing gray or black clothes with symbols on them... The ears and horns are a substitute for troll horns, because a lot of character designs look weird without them.
