The Berserker's Daughter
is an online webcomic drawn by Nate Piekos, the same guy who did Atland and Dead Ends.
The Berserker's Daughter is in black and white, and more of a "gag a day" comic similar to Calvin and Hobbes (think Atland lite) than an epic adventure fantasy like its predecessor. Its two main characters are a young girl named Ruby, the titular berserker's daughter, and her friend, a boy named Troll.
The 22nd and last page of season 1 appeared in May 2013. Season 2 is scheduled for sometime later in 2013.
Tropes
The Berserker's Daughter provides examples of:- Black Comedy: Toned way down from Atland, but it's still there.
- Dark Is Not Evil: The zombie boy the duo meet under the old tree.
- Lighter and Softer: Compared to Atland. (Though it still has a few moments of gleeful black comedy and fanservice, just to a much lesser extent than Atland.)
- Parent Service: This strip is a lot more kid-friendly than the one that came before it, but Sigrid The Comely Milkmaid was undoubtedly put in to please the older fans of Atland.
- Scary Scarecrows: Well, more like Jerkass scarecrows, but all they seem to do all day is think up new ways to get kids in trouble.
- Undead Child: Though Troll is actually a pretty decent guy.
