Platinum Grit is a webcomic by Danny Murphy and Trudi Cooper in a surreal, often nonsensical version of the real world, following the adventures of a mismatched trio of incompetent Australian misfits as they struggle to make sense of (or at least put up with) various encounters with the bizarre and inexplicable.Jeremy MacConnor is a brilliant young science student whose work occasionally stretches the bounds of belief and who doesn't know much about girls, whose misadventures begin when he finds out that he has to fight a duel to the death with his Axe-Crazy (and immortal) Cousin Dougal to find out who will inherit the ancestral Castle MacConnor. His best friend Nilson Kerr, a young lady of dubious morals who thinks that owning a castle sounds fun, doesn't care about Jeremy's rather understandable fear of death, and sets herself to the task of helping him inherit a castle. And so begins an increasingly bizarre series of adventures including an attempt by extra-terrestrials to get Jeremy laid, an investigation by a private detective who mistakenly thinks he's in a private eye dime novel, ghostly manifestations from the nearby lake, the MacConnor family's private mental asylum, a crazed zookeeper, a talking cupboard from Jamaica, and an insidious family conspiracy spanning generations. Eventually they're joined by Kate Provocski, a hack writer for trashy womens' magazines, whose cynicism and relatively sane personality make her the stable anchor of the group.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Each story arc lasts for 1-3 issues and is more or less self-contained, although character development for the three protagonists is a constant and gradual process, and later stories focus increasingly on the strange goings on of the MacConnor family which were only hinted at early in the piece. | |

Bad Dreams. Jeremy keeps having nightmares about his childhood tormentor Cousin Dougal suddenly returning. Despite Dougal looking suspiciously dead at the end of an early storyline, Jeremy's dreams might be more than just the result of childhood trauma. | |
