A web comic written by Kale Night and illustrated by Archie-the-Red-Cat, A Broken Winter follows three central characters; Kokkan, a heavily traumatized child who grows up to be a flippant, sarcastic teenager, Kuroda, the soldier who raised Kokkan because the boy reminded him of his own murdered son, and Reisen, a doctor who is accused of terrorism after he uncovers some unsettling truths. The story primarily takes place in Terasu, one of two remaining countries on the planet, which uses chemical means to keep its citizens docile and is known for brutally enforcing compliance with the government. Sound familiar?There are currently two threads to the story. The first deals with Kokkan and Kuroda and how they met. The second follows Reisen, a free spirit who discovered the government's darkest secret when he learned the mysterious origins of "Moon Sickness" which is also called Tarqila. The two threads are tied together by the fact that Kokkan also happens to be Reisen's biological son.Most notable for being unflinchingly dark and often times brutal. It also only updates as chapters are completed, with the typical update window being a few months long. It is NSFW due to graphic images of blood and torture, but it can be read here.If you want to know more about the world, the glossary and character page is here.Currently there are 11 chapters posted. | |

Human Resources: It's implied by the art that the so-called "brisket" you ordered at the restaurant might not actually be brisket at all. | |

Slave Brand: Kokkan has one on his shoulder from his time in the special division at Irihi. While he largely ignores it, Kuroda seems to be ashamed by it. | |

Immortality Begins at Twenty | |
| A Broken Winter (Webcomic) / int_7ffca8c4 | comment |
Immortality Begins at Twenty: Even with their extended lifespans, it still only takes about twenty years to reach adulthood, at which point everyone looks fairly young. Reisen, despite being several hundred years old, barely looks older than his seventeen year old son. | |

His Story Repeats Itself: Kuroda initially takes Kokkan off the execution list because he looks like Kuroda's son, who was murdered a few years earlier. Kuroda couldn't save Seisui, but he could save Kokkan. | |

Bread and Circuses | |
| A Broken Winter (Webcomic) / int_b0fb2427 | comment |
Bread and Circuses: Interestingly, the two countries of Ibara and Terasu embody different aspects of this. Terasu is the bread — focused on keeping its people provided for and content. Ibara is the circus — allowing hedonism and pleasure above all else. Both are effective at keeping their people content and compliant. | |

Sadistic Choice | |
| A Broken Winter (Webcomic) / int_babc974 | comment |
Sadistic Choice: Kuroda could either watch Kokkan commit suicide or he could step in and save him. The second option has the risk of resulting in the loss of Kuroda AND Kokkan's lives if it was ever found out by the government that Kuroda saved a so-called criminal on death row. | |

Troubled, but Cute: Kokkan, through and through. Because of the trauma he endured as a child, he can't eat meat, he apparently rarely sleeps, and he self medicates by smoking because he refuses to take medicine for his PTSD. | |

Blood-Splattered Innocents: The breaking point for Kokkan seems to come when he is forced to kill a baby left alive after a purge. He then threatens to kill himself. He was seven at the time this happened. This also seems to be the turning point for Kuroda as well, as he finally rescues Kokkan and adopts him. | |
