''Sorcery 101'' is a webcomic written and illustrated by Kel McDonald. Launched on May 12, 2005, the comic was originally drawn in black and white, but became full color on August 19, 2005. Sorcery 101 first appeared on Comicgenesis and moved to Keenspot on July 27, 2006. The story, which is currently updated once a week, on Mondays, chronicles the life of Danny Gunn, a school teacher who is also an aspiring sorcerer. The comic has now left Keenspot and moved to Blank Label. While the comic has a largely supernatural cast, the storyline deals primarily with interpersonal relationships. The comic presents werewolves, vampires, and demons as essentially "normal" people dealing with their own talents and limitations. Kel used the site Kickstarter to fund the first collection book. ==Story== ''Sorcery 101'' follows the life and troubles of Danny Gunn who is the former prince of Terra, a fictional country in the universe based roughly on England, but Danny is now a sorcerer-in-training, as well as a private school teacher. Along with a myriad cast of his friends and acquaintances, including but not limited to: his best friend Brad Wolfe; Brad's wife Ally and their daughter Rebecca; Danny's teacher, a vampire named Pat Warren; and the enigmatic elder vampire Seth, who has his own plans for Danny. The story is set on a modern world closely resembling our own, but there are notable differences. In the series, vampires, demons, and werewolves have recently been discovered to be real, though most residents of this world still believe they are a hoax. The comic has a feel different from most supernatural comics.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Looking To The Stars — Gazing On The Internet )〕 The story has modern firearms in use as well as ancient magics; cities and countries are named differently, but nevertheless seem to "match up" to real-world countries, such as Terra to the United Kingdom. Many works of popular culture like the film ''Star Wars'' and the TV show ''Avatar: The Last Airbender'' appear in the ''Sorcery 101'' world. There are comics that are mildly amusing, but the main focus is on the story.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Arts & Literature: Webcomics: Sorcery 101 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sorcery 101」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
