Key! Very long title I know. This comic I found a few weeks ago . Its only got 104 pages so far to date and is rather slow to begin with.

Story: Jerlorn, an ex-knight, is due to return to Feynia after a year spent in the human realm... Only to find out that the key to his return has been lost and his princess supposedly murdered by a Daemonikhan conspiracy. While keeping an eye out for the missing key, Jerlorn finds a young girl named Ki, who searches for clues to piece back together her broken past - a young girl with more powers than neither of the two realize.

Faced with the Daemonikhan threat, they decide to embark on a journey to forge a lock that can allegedly stop anything. However, they're not going to get away with it alone. At least, not if Ki's protective friends, Chris and Val, have anything to say about it.

Fav Pages: This And This And This for some reason.

(Oh and sorry it took so long, I haven't been around a compie to post for about a week.)

Darn. I was going to suggest this one for my next week... Now I'm going to have to find a new webcomic. Or else admit that I've been reading Mystican De- Um... Er...

So yeah, I saw an ad for Key on The Phoenix Re- Oh, good! There's another comic to suggest. I'm saved!

...So there was an ad for Key on The Phoenix Requim's page, and I just kind of followed it because they art was nice and anime style and I couldn't resist. I started reading for the art, and I... kept reading for the art. Admittedly that's the only aspect I found really impressive. The story's ok and all, but it's just so... typical! It felt like something I'd read a milion times before. What with the portals and magical fairies and randomly enrolling yourself in teh local school and somehow finding a place to live without any money to buy a house... seriously, why the heck did Jerlorn randomly start going to school? Didn't he have more important concerns? And wouldn't not having any knowledge of the material taught prior to highschool result in failing grades for practically every class?

It's not a bad comic, though. And Falroan is so freaking cool it should be illegal. No particular favorite comics aside from the last one Kaida posted and that one in the library with the Pokemon book come to mind, though...

The art is pretty nice, a handful of slightly awkward looking scenes aside, and the artists certainly puts a lot of detail into her work (like the library scenes).
But, like Silver said, the story is extremely generic. Elves, fairies, magical world, portals, quest to find five magical thingies, hot guy from another world, "ordinary girl" who really isn't so ordinary gets pulled into it, yadda, yadda, yadda... The main plot is kinda a mash up of anime cliches and, so far, hasn't had any unique twists that really make it stick out.
There's also a whole lot of plot holes / logic problems, like Silver pointed out. Where's Jerlorn live? What point is there in him going to school? Where's he get money? etc...
Plus, the characters just don't act in a believable way. They take way too much in stride. The princess is dead? Some people were hurt by an exploding rock? There's a magical portal to another world in the woods? The new kid is from another world? Everyone seems to just shrug off major, traumatic, and very unusual events like they happen every day. No one freaks out, no one is scared, sad, confused, or even surprised. They're just like, "Oh, ok then." Real people do not act that way.
Finally, everyone and their best friend seems to know everything there is to know about portals and other worlds even though humans aren't really supposed to have any clue about that type of stuff... What the heck is up with that? And why doesn't Jerlorn care about it in the least?

So anyway, the art is pretty nice but the story is full of cliches and between that and the very unbelievable characters I just can't get into it.

Aw. The best mentions are already... mentioned.

So, to sum it up. It's cliché, it's plot holey, it's unbelievable, and the art's good. Also, Jerlorn probably got some schooling in wherever he comes from, so he probably isn't failing.
With lack of anything really to add, I'll end it here as to not repeat too much.

Yea, plot holing really makes this comic hard to read. I enjoyed the art more than the whole webcomic. Cliches and cliffhangers... not my type of story.
