A'''''Darken''''' is a ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]''-based webcomicweb comic that stands out from many like it in that it follows an evil group. An evil group who knows they are evil and glory in it. An evil group who knows it, glories in it, and are total [[Badass|Badasses]]es too.
 
In fact, the story begins with a knight named Gort discovering that when making a [[Deal with the Devil]], usually you aren't going to get away with a double-cross. Not one to take death lying down, he rapidly returns [[Like a Badass Out of Hell]]. Gathering up his [[True Companions]] (the ones he hasn't killed yet), he embarks on his quest for [[A God Am I|invincibility]]. Too bad several members of his group have their own motivations. Not to mention the [[Evil Twin]] (which would be good in this case). Add in Gort's old rival returning [[Like a Badass Out of Hell|Like A Badass Out Ofof Heaven]] and you begin to get an idea of the plot.
 
The second major arc is about the war against "The Worm Lord", who starts as a disturbing rumor before becoming a tangible enemy.
Line 9:
Well written and well drawn, with a quality that increases with time. You can see the starting page [http://darkencomic.com/?webcomic_post=20031216 here]. It is now finished.
 
The artist has started another webcomicweb comic called [[Widdershins]]

Line 84:
* [[Schedule Slip]]: Although originally updating three times a week, it now updates weekly.
* [[Squishy Wizard]]: Zathras is introduced being harassed by wild dogs and has to be saved by Komi. He makes a point of staying far, far out of melee while with the party - going so far as to spend the entire Metal Hydra fight up on a ledge, well out of attack range, casting spells.
* [[Sssssnaketalk]]: Unusually subverted with Jade and the other Yuan-Ti. {{spoiler|However, when Casper starts having nightmares about her she DOES elongate her Ssssss'essssss... possibly for creep factor and possibly as a hint that [[Itit Waswas [[All Just a Dream]].}}
* [[Start of Darkness]]: Sadly, we discover it was Gort's [[Heroic Sacrifice]] that started him on the path of Evil - and ensured his [[Evil Twin|brother]] would be on the side of good.
* [[Storming the Castle]]
