 Side Real (Webcomic)
comment
A 2014 Webcomic by Philip Rice set in a World of Weirdness full of superheroes, aliens, and vampires. The comic takes elements of genre fiction and plays them as everyday and ordinary, such as civilians carrying on a mundane conversation while two superhumans duke it out in the streets, a Thark waiter on a neo-colonized Mars, and a National Registry for Vampires.The story, such as it is so far, follows a green-skinned Martian teenager named Marcia Jakk who seems to be developing uncontrolled psychic powers. The comic has taken breaks to additionally follow a red-skinned Martian warrior-woman named Tala who works for the US government despite seemingly hating Earth-culture; and Dr. Phillip Craft, a No Celebrities Were Harmed expy of H.P. Lovecraft, whose collection of books suggest that the Cthulhu Mythos is canon within the comic.

Canon Welding: Like League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Side Real seems to be doing this with various early depictions of Mars in science fiction, from Burrough's Barsoom series to A Martian Odyssey by Stanley Weinbaum. In addition, tomes from the Cthulhu Mythos, the Middle Earth saga, The Illuminatus! Trilogy and Gargoyles are seen in Dr. Phillip Craft's library.

All Myths Are True

comment
All Myths Are True: Thor, Skadi, and Herakles are mentioned. Marcia's friend Dove identifies as part Angel, despite also being an atheist. This sparks an argument about the nature of the Judeo-Christian God in a universe where all gods are real.

Art Shift: In fewer than 30 pages, the comic has already gone through at least three distinct styles, from bright and cartoony, to scratchy outlines and soft shading, to heavily crosshatched.

Crossover Cosmology: An argument is made about whether or not the very real-in Universe Christian God counts as a god if Thor doesn't.
