The Miraculous Living Machines, a Webcomic by Atomic Jelly Cat
Mari Stottlemeyer, child of a wanted conman, was on the run again. However, this time was different. The will of her estranged Uncle found them, and she has inherited his legacy: 6 living robots in a giant mechanical manor, tucked in the dark cold town of Arcane Reach, where the rain never stops. While her father tries to spin this into a get-rich-quick scheme, Mari and her new mechanical cousins start to unravel their family's dark history and the mystery surrounding her uncle's untimely death.
Sci-fi comedy about a girl and her weird robotic extended family.
This is a project I have been working on in private since 2017, and began uploading pages in March 2022.

Current Comic February 2025 update:
Bad news from the zones, Tumbleweeds... We are on a longer hiatus than anticipated. It's not forever, but I am unsure of when pages will continue. I got really badly burnt out, and after 4+ years of only doing Living Machines I just need to work on something else. And I am!
My fantasy novel Red is now finished! Red is a Fantasy/Adventure novel that's fairytale-ish in nature with a decadent garnish of body horror and other worldly dread. Think Redwall meets Cheers but the adorable animal characters are allowed to say fuck because they'll definitely need to.
Thank you all who had stuck around for so long with Living Machines, and trust me, I will pick it back up someday! But I really just need a break, and I'm really excited for y'all to experience Red, I think you'll like it!
Tales of Elgrai: Red (Description)
Plot Synopsis:
Beasts. Parasitic demons of unlimited power that are forced to merge with another living person in order to unleash their dreadful capabilities. The unfortunate souls that give up their freedoms for a taste of such corrupting power become known as Hosts, and from that moment onward, their bodies and minds no longer belong only to themselves. Beasts are the monsters that torment the peaceful country of Elgrai, and the reason why the cowardly son of the village healer has chosen to break his oath to do no harm.
Ruaidri, the sole survivor of the Red Fox Village, lost everything in a single night to a beast. With no one left and nowhere to go, the young fox is taken in by the bartender and owner of the Valer Madres, the most infamous bounty hunting bar in Elgrai. Driven to avenge his mother's death and bring justice to his slaughtered village, Ruaidri swears to kill the beast, become the greatest bounty hunter of all time, and confront the man hosting the demon to answer for his crimes.
Red June 2026 Update:
Third draft is complete, and the first three chapters are free to read here on tumblr if you're interested in getting a taste of Red before it goes to be published. I'm still open to new beta readers, if you are interested, feel free to comment upon the linked post or send me a message.
And please, enjoy.
