Hi! I'm River, the owner of this new blog and the artist/main writor behind NDY.
Not Dead Yet is an upcoming webcomic inspired by me and my close friend's shenanigans in Phasmophobia. Thats right, this is a ghost hunting comic. The main characters, Lazlo and Samm, are like self inserts for me and the first friend I played Phasmo with. Then another friend joined us, who was too scared to go inside the house. So they became the van guy, Micheal, who we later joked was the voice that comes from the radio when the players start a new round. The individual who inspired Micheal also inspired the title of the comic, as they would tell us "Good luck dont die" as we leave the van, and we would respond "We're not dead yet!".
Then overtime, other friends would join us, inspiring more characters such as Trevor and Comet. Our game nights varied between 2 people to a full 4 person crew, depending on schedules.
We are a group of creatives and roleplayers so naturally some situations got played up, bits were created, What-ifs were asked. For me, an artist, turning it into a comic just made sense.
The other players know about it, are excited about it, and have even contributed ideas for it.
Out of respect for the phasmophobia IP many details will be changed to avoid one-to-one copying. However, phasmophobia is a ghost hunting game based on real paranormal investigative tools and methods. So the numerous similarities will be unavoidable.
It would be fun if this comic received a decent reader base once I begin releasing pages, but this is entirely a for funsies project. Its a silly little thing to do with my friends and the blorbos I imagined for them.
I hope you all enjoy the adventures Samm, Laz, and Micheal get up to. I hope you all enjoy getting to know these characters and their stories.
They're Not Dead Yet!
