WINGS. FANGS. CHEEKBONES. Meet Silas, Ivy, and Battie: two undead vampire-elves and a haunted bat-toy. Mischievous, charming, and strictly forbidden near the good china. ✦ We See DARKLINGS™ is an original light-hearted gothic-fantasy universe whose stories span two timelines: the modern era and the Darklings’ distant past. ✦ Est. 2009 ✦ darklingcomic.com ✦ My comics start as sketches and are often polished with A.I. in the final stages. — S.M. © 2026 We See DARKLINGS

Creator of We See DARKLINGS™. My life-partner, Mr. Darkling, gave me the idea for the comic. It doesn’t depict our lives. And no, we don’t have a pet bat, alas. Like Wednesday, I find social media to be a soul-sucking void of meaningless affirmation, so don't go looking for me there.
