| Sire (Webcomic) | comment |
Sire is a webcomic by Alexis Royce, about split personalities Anna and Susan Enfield who journey to England after discovering that they are descended from Edward Hyde and that there is an entire subculture of people who are descended from characters of famous old works and have been cursed by "The Binding" to live the moral of their sire's story... or face the ironic consequences.Rule 1: The Binding is everywhere and everyone is bound. Rule 2: If everyone is bound then lineage children are doubly so. Rule 3: The Binding cannot resist tension or drama. Rule 4: We are characters in its story, and each have a moral to learn.Confirmed to feature Sires/Dams from: The Canterbury Tales A Connecticut Yankeein King Arthurs Court Doctor Faustus Don Quixote The Fall of the House of Usher Frankenstein The Importance of Being Earnest An Ideal Husband The Invisible Man Jeeves and Wooster Les Misérables The Ministers Black Veil The Phantom of the Opera The Picture of Dorian Gray Pollyanna A Prayer for Owen Meany Pygmalion The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde The String of Pearls Sherlock HolmesUnfortunately, Sire is on indefinite hiatus as of the end of Chapter 18. | |

Diabolus ex Machina: Susan was ready to fit in and be a good girl. The Binding couldn't very well abide by that and so the girls discovered that they were lineage children and Paul had lied to them both. It gets worse from there. | |

Cardboard Prison: The girls are escaping the asylum on high security lockdown after killing a man, still wearing a straight jacket at the end of chapter 1. At the start of chapter 2 they are successfully stowed away on a boat to London. High security lockdown and the manhunt for a murderer mean nothing to the Hyde-Child. | |

There Are No Therapists: Averted. Dr. Enfield is actually quite an effective therapist, even for someone who actually does have a "Hyde" in her head... right up until when she kills him. | |
