After searching around for the past couple months and making some fruitful discoveries, I'm now starting to add more webcomix titles to the pinned list (you know where it is). I'll let you know when they're all fully added, but here's a couple goodies for now:
Ten Earth Shattering Blows is probably my finest new discovery. It's got some seriously impressive plotting, world-building, story-flow and art, with one of the wildest, most fun, extended chase sequences you'll ever see. It doesn't aspire to be anything 'lofty,' I don't think, but does a great job fulfilling its premise and staying within its lanes. Happily, it's got about eight years of material already finished, with more actively in development.
Now back to Vattu--
BACKSTORY-- the blue flowers seen here are used to create a levitating gas which also has mystical & medicinal properties, sort of like helium crossed with Spice (from Dune). The flowers are also extremely hard to grow, with the sect / cult here having a hugely-valuable monopoly on them. Little Vattu and friend hatch a plan to steal some in order to create a balloon to escape the cult, little knowing that someone else has sacrilegious designs on them(!)

Needles to say that if the elders spot the youngsters, it would be rather catastrophic...
Alright, if you still need that link, it's here. I'm also pleased to say that the ongoing sequel to this (completed) series is even better!
