Modern Mogal

Modern Mogal is a Web Comic (specifically a manhua, as the author is from Taiwan) by DeviantArt user shepherd0821 (translated and edited by TNBi, draco-runan, and kittizak) about Cute Monster Girls (and women, and men) who live in the modern world (mogal = monster gal). The series is mostly made of single pages telling standalone Slice of Life stories, but a couple of characters have gotten arcs extending over several pages. Updates come out every week.


 * Bland-Name Product: "W-Burger"'s logo is a pair of inverted golden arches, and their flagship product is the "Huge Mac".
 * Fur Against Fang: Jennifer and Vampire Dad recognize each other's species on sight and are not happy to meet. They don't break out into violence, but are both later seen purchasing products to get an edge over the other.  Vampire Dad tells Carmilla that he doesn't like werewolves because they are always giving in to their instincts, which reflects poorly on vampires, as fellow 'creatures of the night'.  Meanwhile, Jennifer warns Wendy about vampires because they bite people to transform them, as a werewolf did to her.
 * Honest Axe: In #051 "Stone Boy", the sister of the boy who Medusa petrified in strip #1 takes his statue to the forest to be cured. Her wheelbarrow hits a rock and he falls in a river, and then a river spirit (?) offers her a gold statue or silver statue.  The girl refuses both, and as a "prize" for her honesty, the river spirit lets her keep both statues...but doesn't give the stone statue back.
 * Meaningful Name: In addition to the Shout-Outs named below, the dragon family of Beth, Dino, and Levia are named after giant monsters of myths and reality: Behemoth, Dinosaur, and Leviathan.
 * Our Werewolves Are Different: Jennifer transforms on the night of the full moon, but it seems her transformation is at least partly psychosomatic, as she is able look at a light bulb and think of it as a full moon to force a transformation when there's just a crescent moon out.
 * No Name Given: Most of the pages have little or no dialogue, so only a couple of characters are named directly. This results in Fan Nicknames like "Werewolf Mom" (who was later named Jennifer) and "Vampire Dad".
 * Running Gag: The centaur's traffic barrier.
 * Shout Out:
 * In "How to be a death", the Grim Reapers are trained by a Drill Sergeant Nasty skeleton who is clearly a reference to R. Lee Ermey. (In fact, since it was published a few months after Ermey's death, it might have been the man himself.)
 * Maria the gynoid is named after the famous character from Metropolis, and bears 'finger-guns' similar to Aigis from Persona 3.
 * An anti-robot protester holds a sign saying "Robots took our jerbs!"
 * Red Talbot, the werewolf who bit and infected Jennifer, shares his surname with Lawrence Talbot, The Wolf Man.
 * In "Hater", Medusa uses three of her snakes and the magic of forced perspective to make a selfie with Dino that looks like the Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah standoff from Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019). The center and right snakes are snarling and baring fangs, while the left snake has a Cat Smile (a reference to Ghidorah's left head being a little goofy or playful).
 * A dragon doctor's office in "Check-ups" is shown to use the Dinotopia alphabet for its vision chart.
 * The Unmasqued World: Non-humans live openly in society. Characters include a centaur who is serving in the military and a gynoid married to a police officer.
 * The Masquerade: Nevertheless, Jennifer hides her werewolf nature from her daughter.
