John Constantine and the Golden Boy remix, by Jes & Cin Wibowo (2024, fantasy fancomic)
"Goldie let me absorb him. So that I could live. That means my soul isn't entirely my own, ennit?"
Blurb: Burned-out sorcerer John Constantine had a twin who died in the womb. In the world on other side of the mirror, it was the twin who survived, and John who died. And one day, that twin comes out to make him an offer to solve everything...
Why is it worth your time?: It's good! Jes & Cin packed a lot of thought on themes of self-hatred, grief, and sacrifice into these short little comics. Give 'em a shot, they're free!
Plural Tags: abuse not mentioned, otherworld, children, the dead [twins], nonswitching, fusion/integration [failed and successful both], family and enmity relationships, setting-specific, visions
Content Warnings: It is not a spoiler to say that these are comics about a dead twin, and the grief therein!
Access Notes: Not screenreadable. Free to read online, though not posted in order!
Misc Notes: The creators have put it all in one expanded "Director's Cut" post now! (EDIT: here's also the tumblr post version.) Here's the masterpost on the creation of it (back-up link). The authors' notes in the original posts are also well worth reading:
