The Chimera Comics Collective is an organization of webcomic creators working across a monstrosity of different genres, styles and influences. Our aim is to lift the titles we catalog, provide a supportive community, and share resources among members to maximize everyone's chances to succeed. Much like a chimera, we embody a multitude of characteristics and abilities. Romance, horror, adventure, YA or adult—we celebrate what makes us unique, while working as one to build a supportive comic community. We'll be sharing resources, promotion and championing inclusivity and creativity.

  • FairmeadowFairmeadow

    Goma, a wayward Orcish soldier, finds herself in Fairmeadow, a commune of pacifists deep in the Cascadian wilderness. Isolation has allowed the commune to thrive in the shadow of a century-long war, but Goma’s arrival brings troubling reminders of the world outside to those who have settled there in search of respite. Fairmeadow’s enigmatic leader, Sanctuary, finds his utopian vision challenged as he struggles to keep the peace. Their self-sufficiency exists on thin margins - margins that threaten to break if Goma cannot learn to live alongside those who she has sworn to fight.

    Fairmeadow is a post-epic fantasy drama inspired by the counter-cultural movements of the late 60’s, the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, and tabletop RPG’s. It’s about the collision of idealism against pragmatism, reckoning with the consequences of dropping out, and trying to make its readers want to go on a hike.

The door slid open, and there stood Liya, looking almost wary. The Cynn looked at her for a moment, his expression carefully flat, before saying, "...Well. Liliya Kiski."

"Um, hi," Liya mumbled, as she entered the room. She stood a couple inches taller than the Cynn, even as she slouched and he stood ramrod-straight. She hesitated. "Uh, I mean--"

She gave a short, odd bow which startled the Cynn out of his blank expression momentarily. He leaned back against the desk, regarding her somewhat more closely. "So what brings you here, Liliya?"

Liya didn't look directly at him. She said brusquely, "First, I'm sorry for bein' so rude last time I saw you."

"No need, but I accept."

"And uh, second, I wanted to ask a favor."

The Cynn raised his eyebrows. "Really," he said. "A favor."

Liya didn't seem put off by this. She reached down the collar of the patterned cloak she was wearing, rummaging for something. "Uhm, yeah, but--it ain't for me." She produced a small hammered coppery ring, which she held out to the Cynn in the palm of her hand. "It's for Yoshi."


Sraddi sat patiently on her perch, while Liya concluded, "...An' so I was hopin', y'know, since you helped Yoshi out with her door lock, maybe you wouldn't mind doin' this, too."
