Derelict (webcomic)

Derelict is a science fiction webcomic set in a post-flood world, written and drawn by Ben Fleuter (also the author of Galactic Maximum). It's about Dang Thu Mai, a lone scavenger living on a boat and coping with her surroundings. Complicating matters is an otherworldly fog which shrouds the world, and hides the so-called "Miasmic Races", monstrous yet intelligent beings, most of whom possess nothing but ill will for humanity.

Tropes included

 * Anachronic Order
 * All There in the Manual: Ben has revealed in other projects, and on the Nothing Personal forums, much more information than the comic itself has.
 * After the End
 * Author Appeal: Ben is rather fascinated by the subject, to say the least.
 * Chiaroscuro
 * Deliberately Monochrome
 * Depleted Phlebotinum Shells: Dang uses UV crossbow bolts against Miasmic enemies.
 * Disaster Scavengers
 * Frickin' Laser Beams
 * Houseboat Hero
 * Hostile Weather
 * Important Haircut: Ben uses the length of Dang's hair to help indicate time passing between events; the growth is just as important as the cutting.
 * Les Yay: Dang has a naked pin-up poster on her wall.
 * Malevolent Masked Men: The humanoid Miasmic races.
 * My Species Doth Protest Too Much: Possibly. At the least, Beautiful Flower was not nearly as nasty as the other miasmic beings; she regretted stealing Dang's boat and later uttered a prayer when it appeared she killed Dang.
 * Odd Shaped Panel
 * Ominous Fog: Which is apparently not normal fog, as it may be poisonous and hides inhuman beings who are intelligent, but not, apparently, inclined to play nicely with humanity.
 * Now officially confirmed as a Fog of Doom; complete with brutal Mind Rape, implications of Genius Loci, and complementary free ballet lessons.
 * Painting the Fourth Wall
 * Rule of Perception
 * Rule of Three: Big time.
 * Scavenger World
 * Silence Is Golden: More often than not, the comic will go for whole pages with no spoken words or sounds. It's very effective at conveying a sense of isolation.
 * Shout Out: Dang comes across a crashed passenger jet which is sporting an Oceanic Airlines logo.
 * Skeletons in The Coat Closet
 * Surrogate Soliloquy
 * Wall of Blather
