Heartstopper 5 Webtoons to Check Out After the Netflix Adaptation

This award-winning comic by Ngozi Ukazu, which began publication in 2013, follows the story of Eric ‘Bitty’ Bittle, a freshman at Samwell University who has a passion for baking good old-fashioned pie recipes, vlogging and…hockey. To no one’s surprise, these don’t really mesh. Add to that Bitty’s tempestuous (at best) relationship with the team captain, Jack Zimmerman, and freshman year is not the dream that Bitty imagined. However, it turns out that a good pie can do a lot to smooth things over, even with the grumpiest of captains, making Check, Please! a hilarious, heartwarming and bingeworthy series perfect for fans of young adult lit, LGBTQ+ stories and happy endings. With endearing characters, crisscrossing storylines to keep the plot engaging and an interactive storyface to keep audiences in the know about both what’s on the ice and in the oven, Check, Please! will not disappoint.

On a Sunbeam

This series adds a little sci-fi spice to the list while still maintaining the appeal to young adult and LGBTQ+ audiences. Author Tillie Walden weaves together two separate timelines, one of love blossoming and dying at a boarding school for space cadets, and the other showing the fallout for main character Mia when she becomes part of a support crew, exploring and fixing relics of their past–our distant future. As queer and neuro-divergent characters taking center stage, On a Sunbeam isn’t just a question about identity, but about societal expectations and how we are expected to fit inside them. While not as lighthearted as Heartstopper, On a Sunbeam is a gorgeous illustrated delve into who we are and the feeling of belonging. Mia’s journey and what she finds out in the remnants of civilization with her small crew creates a personal journey for each reader as well, despite the science fiction setting, proving that some stories are truly universal.

Gourmet Hound

Lucy Fuji is a complete foodie, so it’s understandable that she’s devastated when the staff at her favorite restaurant changes over and she’s left with no idea where the chefs responsible for her most beloved dishes have ended up. When she finds the flavor she’s been craving completely by chance, Lucy stubbornly sets out to recreate that which she once lost and ends up signing herself up for a lot more than she bargained for, completely changing her life. Creator Leehama managed to whip up a webcomic that is fresh and positive and features lots of delicious food, an adorable dog named Lemon, and is filled with important life lessons about letting go and accepting change into our lives.

#Muted

#Muted is the love story of two boys where one suffers from a form of intense social anxiety that makes it difficult to be in crowds, hold down more than a part-time job, and even limits his ability to speak, finding it easier to communicate with hand gestures and text messages. With characters Jasper, Kai, and Emma identifying as gay, questioning, and ace, there is plenty of important representation for queer people grown out of their teenage years. Only just completed in April 2022, #Muted features gorgeous artwork from creator kandismon throughout a lovely soft story of acceptance, both of others and of yourself. This is not just a story of boy meets boy but of someone managing a mental illness that debilitates so many who may not know where to turn and who haven’t always found themselves represented in media before, and also of finding love when you feel you least deserve it.

The Four of Them

It is high school drama to the max with creator Mai Hirschfeld’s dramedy The Four of Them, which tells the tale of 15-year-old Jonathan Grillo, his sister, and his friends as they navigate crushes, classes, discovering new identities, and all the confusion that comes with being a teen. Because there’s nothing like your little sister bringing her new girlfriend home, and it’s the girl you’ve loved for five years, right? Combining the harsh reality of teenage years with just the right amount of humor and heart, this ongoing series receives an update every Monday. The over-the-top antics of the competitive siblings are sure to delight. The added shenanigans of their friends and classmates also make this webtoon ideal for those who don’t mind some serious topics but are ultimately down for a feel-good read about teens versus hormones.

The Four of Them can be read for free HERE.
