4	''[[https://unrealitythecomic.tumblr.com/ Unreality]]'' is a webcomic created by Kiyan Shahab. It started on November 19, 2017, and updated on an inconsistent yet frequent basis until Shahab announced its cancellation in 2019. ''Unreality'' is a slice-of-life comedy that centers around three teenagers living together in a recovering apocalyptic future.

6	[[AfterTheEnd The series takes place in the surprisingly nice post-apocalyptic year of 0377AE]], and revolves around a Trio of teenagers,a jaded, overworked 18-year-old woman named Monica, Dominic, a rambunctious 14-year old boy who while not related to Monica by blood, is still unquestionably her brother, and Sarah, Dominic's cheerful and eccentric 16-year-old girlfriend. The series is a gag strip involving all sorts of humorous happenings the trio finds themselves in.

21	* GISSyndrome: Played for laughs in Strip 010, which has Monica show Dominic a picture of a "nasty steroid" that's being sold on the streets. The last panel shows said picture, which is a stock image of bagged spinach.
