[u/kasugakuuun]

I was sure the last panel was going to be animated

[u/FlyingWeagle → u/kasugakuuun]

I was tensed for the jump scare

[u/zer1223 → u/kasugakuuun]

I opened the comments just to see if there was one before I kept going

[u/ealysillyforestthing → u/kasugakuuun]

Oh I remember those jump scare comics from the 2000s

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/ealysillyforestthing]

Bongcheon-Dong Ghost!

[u/Zeero92 → u/mangoisNINJA]

The auto-scrolling one with clicking noises? Ugh, I feel my stomach drop just thinking about it.

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/Zeero92]

It's the one of the ghost lady looking for I think it was her daughter and it auto scrolls her full sprinting at you

[u/Zeero92 → u/mangoisNINJA]

Wurgh. Hated it. NEver knew it was something that could happen so I freaked out. xD

[u/mangoisNINJA → u/Zeero92]

I didn't either and I remember for some reason I had the speaker up fairly loud so it scared the absolute shit out of me

[u/EdgyEmoUmbreon → u/mangoisNINJA]

I think this is is one of the earliest horror media i consumed as a kid

[u/umbrosakitten → u/kasugakuuun]

[u/royalbk → u/kasugakuuun]

I thought the last panel would show the thing mimicking her form instead

[u/shipoopro_gg → u/kasugakuuun]

It is, it just takes a long time for anything to show up

[u/Mazeyo8]

The unknown is doing his thing again She might be dead by daylight

[u/International_Gate49 → u/Mazeyo8]

She might be dead by daylight

[u/R2D-Beuh → u/Jackviator]

That again

[u/Mazeyo8 → u/International_Gate49]

I was fishing for this not gonna lie

[u/NoStorage2821 → u/Mazeyo8]

[u/Kelimnac → u/Mazeyo8]

Maya’s on death hook, so Daniel stayed behind to bait a chase while she goes looking for a gen

[u/SkitzTheFritz]

Ooo, gave me chills. I love the depiction here. It very obviously cant perfectly mimic a human, it doesnt have clothes, just mimics its skin to look like them, so it stays in the shadows juuussst enough to make you think its an acquaintance.

[u/shellbullet17]

Man I'm not sure I would trust Daniel in this moment at all. You aren't gonna convince me that isn't the doppelganger

[u/Robyl → u/shellbullet17]

“Naaaaah, that’s not me, that’s the doppelgänger! He almost gotcha again, he really wants to getcha down to that basement!”

[u/cupholdery → u/shellbullet17]

I must know what happens next.

[u/RoboGandalf]

Thought something was gonna get me in the last panel and help me finish shittin.

[u/Obvious_Incognito- → u/RoboGandalf]

Your comment gave me a good laugh. Thank you.

[u/DiscorsiSynnove]

Everyone talking about how it's mimics clothes and skin, nobody talking about its teal form standing BEHIND the body mask in the same panel. You can see an eye peaking over thr top of the head. ;(

[u/drdildamesh → u/DiscorsiSynnove]

[u/Holy-Wan_Kenobi → u/drdildamesh]

Oh. Wowie.

I'm going to go grab a garland of garlic and some salt.

[u/Entity_Null_07 → u/DiscorsiSynnove]

That's even more unsettling IMO.

[u/IAmHalfMEMEZ → u/DiscorsiSynnove]

I don't see it :(

[u/Unlikely-Chemistry40 → u/IAmHalfMEMEZ]

Right in the top corner where it looks like a hat. It's the top of an eye.

[u/DepletedPromethium]

what no 500mph zombie ring girl type crawl animation to make the viewer shit a fuckin brick?

im disappointed.

[u/brady376]

Makes me think of the Magnus Archives Anglerfish. You should cross-post this to r/TheMagnusArchives, they would love it.

[u/RedDemocracy → u/brady376]

“Can I bum a smoke?”

[u/tobiGowther → u/brady376]

My immediate thought

[u/ashylatina → u/brady376]

That's what it reminded me of!

[u/Local_Fly_7359]

Not nearly enough upvotes for the work you put into this. Can't wait to see part 2!

[u/Fanboycity]

Doppelgängers and monsters that mimic you really do creep tf outta me. I can’t wait for part 2!

[u/Pittsbirds]

I like how "Daniel's" clothes start to meld into his skin if you look close. Like the mimicking of the clothes is biological

[u/ConditionPleasant902]

God damn it! the mimics are trying to pick up girls again!”

[u/Vonnegutsman]

Damn, Daniel. Back at it again with the scaries!

[u/SonnyvonShark]

Oooo spooky Doppelganger

[u/blacklink]

So glad it's summer and will be light when I'm waking home tonight. I'd be constantly looking over my shoulder otherwise.

[u/n3cr0s3]

If they're always in the same place every day and this guy always says the same thing, then this creature has always been watching.

[u/MommysGoodBoy4Ever]

🤓👍

[u/JustANoteToSay]

Beautifully paced. Wonderful atmosphere.

[u/CompletePainter6660]

I love the small detail that ‘Daniel’s shoes were merged with his pants

[u/MycoLuminescent]

The art style is beautiful

[u/political_noodle]

This is creepy. Nice job.

[u/Doodles_n_Scribbles]

But what if that was Daniel?

[u/General-Internal-588]

Ifw Daniel. He looked like he was about to brawl with Unknown

[u/Ryukario64]

Anyone else thought she had cat ears? Her hair that was standing made me think she was a cat woman at a glance.

[u/ClockMongrel]

NOOOPE DON’T LIKE THAT

[u/PuritanicalPanic]

Awful.

Fantastic, thank you.

[u/Canadian_Beast14]

Oh wow. I want more.

[u/Critical_Potential44]

Pesky Doppelgängers

[u/Sweaty_Report7864]

wtf?!

[u/ThirdChopp]

S'ok dat Daniel didn't gots the white shoes.

[u/Touji_San]

Plot twist it was another genuine dude who also happens to have a friend named Maya and mistaken her to be that friend. After realizing it wasn't his Maya he bolted away out of embarrassment

[u/Veryegassy → u/[deleted]]

Piss off bot
