Pictured center is Dr. Pleasant, who is joined by several other characters.
"The Horrifying Experiments of Dr. Pleasant!" is a low rez pixel art comic on the WEB! A heartwarming tale about the titular Doctor, his assistant Gale, and all the new friends they make. (quite literally!)
It can be found here
or here and also here.
The comic provides examples of:
- Alphabetical Theme Naming: Most characters' first names begin with different letters of the alphabet.
- Artificial Human: Armando was created to be irresistible to women, but is mostly just stuck in the midst of an existential crisis.
- Artificial Limbs: Isabelle has a robotic pelvis, legs, left arm, left eye, and a tail to boot!
- Bathos: Most of the humor comes from mundane situations and the first awakening of revival subjects is usually silly, but that doesn't change the fact that they had to die in the first place.

- Pulling Themselves Together: A side effect of Sable's super healing is how easily she falls apart. The benefit of Sable's super healing is how easily she can be put back together.
- Shout-Out: Dr. Wright is a clear reference to Dr. Light. But he's kind of a jerk.
- Snake People: Francesca, who comes complete with forked tongue, wild hair, and plenty of sass.
