Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Newman is an Urban Fantasy webcomic whose characters are various DND races. The main character, a gnome named Newman, works for the Creature Removal Department with a drow named Gwen, who happens to be the princess of the drow kingdom. The webcomic is largely an action comedy with romance, focusing on Newman and Gwen's adventures and relationship.Gwen's culture surprises Newman when he learns that traditionally the husbands are their wives' slaves. Newman is drawn in as he ends up being marked, discovers that Gwen has mind-control powers over him, and gets a collar. He also sees the extent of servantship in Gwen's family and friends as he connects with them. Gwen (it appears) rarely uses her mind-control powers, however, often letting him know that she doesn't need mind control powers to get him to do what she wants, and their relationship is sincere.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In their day job, they destroy monsters in any local areas, small and big (generally posing a direct danger to the populace). Over time they face more and more nefarious monsters and unravel a plot that could destroy the world as they know it.You can read it here.The series ran for five "seasons" on Webtoons, finally ending on July 2021. Josh says this isn't the end of the series, but newer installments will be shorter and run solely on Pateron for the foreseeable future.Has nothing to do with Jerry's arch nemesis.See also Jackie Rose, an adventure series from the same author. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
| Newman (Webcomic) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The Abandoned Hospital arc had Newman get a rock stuck at the bottom of his shoe that he couldn't shake off. When Gwen gets possessed by a malevolent ghost who later knocks out and captures Newman. Newman uses the rock to make a magic rune on the ground that casts the ghost out of Gwen's body. Gwen does the rest. In the early part of the series, Newman is bitten by a werewolf and becomes a cute but deadly puppy type werewolf. Gwen's mom manages to suppress the transformation and it seems like that's the end of it. However later in the series, when the group are on mission to a desert city and have to fight a eldritch beast. Newman ends up losing a leg saving his friends. It looks like he's done for..until the damage kicks his transformation in, not only restoring his limb but making him an asset in fighting the beat. | |

| Newman (Webcomic) / int_2ec6e90f | comment |
Yet Another Christmas Carol: Season two had one that focuses on Lilian, Gwen's mother and queen of the Drow elves, as she isn't a fan of the holidays. A flashback reveals it was because her friend was killed by a homeless man she was trying to help. After going through the usual motions of the story, it takes a letter from said friend to get her back in the spirit. | |

| Newman (Webcomic) / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: Lilian reveals to Gwen and Newman that there's a prophecy of Gwen dying due to the magic power in her that will take a toll on her body when fighting Cthulhu. It starts coming to pass during the battle against him, but Newman uses himself as her "wand" to conduct the power and vaporize Cthulhu, dying in the process. Don't worry though, he gets better. | |

Culture Clash: Husband's are basically wives' slaves in Gwen's culture. Despite warnings from others, this still takes Newman off guard, and Newman runs into more and more surprises with this over time, such as when after getting engaged with Gwen he gets a collar. | |

Dragged into Drag: Newman constantly finds himself dressed up in dresses or feminine clothing by Gwen. Her brother reveals that she wasn't allowed to have dolls as a child so this is more or less her compensating. Some of he bonus strips are even centered around this with suggestions from the fans. | |

Shapeshifting Heals Wounds: The titular character gets one of his legs blasted off when while pushing is friends out of the way of a monster's energy blast. He looks done for as he's bleeding out and goes into shock...until his werewolf transformation (which he got in an earlier story arc) triggers and saves him. When he comes out of it after everything is said and done, his leg is shown to have regenerated. | |

Forgotten First Meeting: When discussing how Kathryn and Darian first fell in love, it's revealed that Gwen had skipped out on the homecoming dance to do some delinquency. Robby aka Drudge Stryer tried to attack her again and Newman came to help her out. So as it turns out, Gwen already had a crush on him by that point. The reason Newman doesn't remember because the meeting was brief and, at the time, He was dating a pixie, Emilaine | |

Happiness in Slavery | |
| Newman (Webcomic) / int_a58802b7 | comment |
Happiness in Slavery: Darian, Gwen's brother, plays this to the hilt with Kathryn waiting on her hand and foot and has no problem with it. Though this is explained that his sisters likewise treated him as such when they were little, so he was already fairly conditioned to it. However, like Gwen and Newman, Kathryn and he genuinely do love each other. Newman starts coming around to this a bit too, though is reluctant on certain activities. | |

Vampire Episode: A story arc had Newman and Gwen getting involved in a seemingly Fur Against Fang matter between the werewolves and the vampires. Though it's revealed it's a manufactured one. One of the vampires went rogue, rejecting the more foppish vampire ruler whom the duo befriend, and has been making more feral vampires so he can take over. | |
