Gemini and Becoming Median, by Zyfron (slice-of-life comic, 2010-2013, 2018)

Z: Ooooooh! A dramatic intro!
Bernie: Get down from there! You're ruining the dramatic tension!

Blurb: "The life of the Zyfron System: Cartoonified!" Slice-of-life strips about being multiple. Went on hiatus for many years, then culminated with "Becoming Median," a zine about integration, becoming median, and dealing with trauma.

Why is it worth your time?: Zyfron discuss the complications of life after integration, which is often depicted as a simple, "hooray, you're cured!" You get to see the arc of their lives from multiple, to singlet, to median, and how that is a complicated, confusing process. Gemini may not have a story, per se, but it describes an experience that is lacking in plural stories, so I am choosing to boost it. Plus I am utterly biased because Zyfron are my friend and they let me squat on healthymultiplicity.com. :p

Wow, read the whole webcomic (plus Becoming Median) in one sitting! Awesome story. It has its own content warnings on the about page, by the way.

Oh good! Yeah, a bunch of these works do, but for cataloging purposes, it's convenient to have it there, especially since some of these works are available in many places and might not all have the content warnings.
