Humorous dark fantasy comic showing Monster Union Local 1313 negotiating work contracts with fantasy executive characters
This satirical dark fantasy comic follows Monster Union Local 1313 as classic dungeon monsters negotiate fair pay, safe conditions, and benefits with upper management fantasy executives. Warm moody gothic lighting, rich sepia and deep shadow tones bring whimsical life to iconic horror and tabletop RPG characters including trolls, skeletons, gargoyles, mimics, and vampire leadership. The playful labor rights themed comic leans into dungeon delving lore with a final pro-union solidarity punchline.

Entry in the Haunted Occupations theme on BudgetPixel.

Darn! I forgot to put the monster union in the Haunted Occupations Theme (soon to close) on my last post. So I did another one. I should fix the speech bubbles but I figure close enough. I think this one is funny too. Haunted Occupations (my theme) closes in 7 hours. Don't blame us if the union fails because you didn't show up! (Plus a lot of people had some very cool ideas so go take a gander!) https://budgetpixel.com/themes/85
