Favourite Webcomic: Girls Next Door

I want to introduce to you one of my favourite web comics of all time.

It’s called “Girls Next Door” by Pika-la-Cynique!

It’s the well groomed, understated and witty companion to another web comic on deviatart.com, “Roommates“.  It’s the story of famed and fabled characters of musicals, movies and such, thrown into a college early twenty-something situation.  Our two main heroines are Sarah from Labyrinth fame, and Christine from The Phantom of the Opera (to clarify, the musical.)  Both have stalkers, Sarah in the form of the imminently and indulgently smexy Jareth, The Goblin King (as portrayed by the equally indulgently smexy David Bowie) and Eric, also known as The Phantom of the Opera.  Whom, by the way, are also roommates.  Of course, hilarity ensues with guest appearances from several large budget movies, anime, cartoons, animations and novels.

The list of regulars and cameos include:

Javert from Les Miserables
Elizabeth and Norrington from Pirates of the Carribean
Meg and Raoul from Phantom of the Opera
Prince of Darkness from Legend
Westly, Princess Buttercup, Inigo Montoya and the Dread Pirate Roberts from The Princess Bride
Aziraphale and Crowley from Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch
Gytha “Nanny” Ogg and Greebo from Discworld
Richard Mayhew, Door and Marquis de Carabas from Neverwhere
Legolas of Lord of the Rings, Movie edition
Bella and Edward of Twilight, Movie edition
Hellboy and Prince Nuada from Hellboy II
Peter (Season One version with Season Two powers) from Heroes
Sweeny Todd and Mrs. Lovett from The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Movie Edition.
