“Into The Midnight City” is a Webcomic by Can Richards.
Synopsis from Can’s website:
Wyatt Finch has been a vampire for three months, and he's just moved to The Midnight City - a town of ghosts and ghouls and magicians of all sorts! Together with Archibald Hawthorne (a soft-spoken gentleman detective) and Circe (an eccentric scientist witch), they solve magical misdeeds of all kinds, in a story about friendship, finding your destiny, and occasionally stopping for tea!
It can be read on Webtoon, Tapas, and Tumblr.
“Into The Midnight City” provides examples of the following tropes:
- Almost Kiss: Wyatt and Fake Archie
- Annoying Arrows: The opening scene of the comic has Archie pinned to the wall with arrows through his suit, and has Wyatt (a vampire with a healing factor) somewhat under-react to getting actually pierced in the shoulder.
- Cast Full of Gay: so far, 2/3 of the main trio are confirmed LGBT, with Circe having a pansexual flag in her room, and Wyatt being a trans man.
- The Fair Folk: While some more cutesy pixies are seen in town, the main case of Chapter one involves fairies "haunting" the Abernathy family's home, and simply refusing to leave.
- Fantasy Kitchen Sink: The titular Midnight City is a city of magical creatures, such as vampires, werewolves, minotaurs, pixies, and so on
- Fantasy Webcomics
- Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: All vampires seen thus far in the comic.
- Losing a Shoe in the Struggle: At the end of the first chapter. Archie offers "personal possessions" to the fairies to finally get them to leave, apparently a spell where the fairies take a bit of clothing. They end up taking the top of Archie's suit and both boys' shoes.
- Private Detective: The Hawthorne Detective Agency
- Spotting the Thread: Wyatt spots the Fake Archie quite quickly, simply because the impostor was a little too touchy.
- Unusually Uninteresting Sight: In a city of pixies, werewolves, and witches, no one really bats an eye at Wyatt’s obvious vampire traits.
- Vampire Hickey: Wyatt has one, as does the vampire news reporter seen early on in the first chapter.
- Wyatt even features as the trope example image.
- Vampires Hate Garlic: Played with. Wyatt, a recently-turned vampire, loved garlic bread as a human, and misses it since becoming a vampire.
