It's "loss",a comic by tim buckly. He's the author of a humorous comic that is unintentionally unfunny, and one day made a serious strip that was unintentionally funny.

It's a common meme to hide Loss in images.

Rising star
Terrible accident
Desperate surgery
A chance meeting

Many possibilitys
Which is real
He won't say
It doesent matter

A mocked friend
An epic race
Magical explosion
Realised destinys

An evil man
A fancy chair
A powerful force
Incredible power

A young boy
4 strange men
A magical journey
An important decision.

A horrifying discovery
Lost friends
Incredible fear
A ring of power

This is harder then I thought

>>82406973
I came up with a few more these ones are related
Bear in mind I have very little info on the origins of these characters so I may get a few things wrong

A famous racer
A horrific crash
A mad scientist
A new body

A crashed plane
An unknown substance
Dead doctors
A mad scientist

A famous actor
A strange gas
Bubbling goop
A mad scientist

Im happy with the first one but I wish I could have done better on the second and third

A peaceful planet
A rude awakening
A final sleep
A Main Man

>>82407323

First one is definitely Robotman.

>>82407323
A curious woman
A strange box
A foolish council
A terrible curse

A routine performance
A mysterious gunman
Become a ghost
Possess everything


I'm not overly happy with the second one most difficulty is in condensing into 4 lines that was hard to make into 4 from 3

>>82407367

>>82396722

Yeah man, Hulk all the way.

>>82407535
Not so much an origin as a major event in the characters life but

An indie band
A molested girl
A summoning gone wrong
The stump of innocence

It sort of leaves a bit out but I Couldent get it all into 4 lines

>>82405985

I always argue that Loss is the seminal event in dethroning webcomics as "a transformitive artistic medium" so yeah I'd say Loss is a hypercrisis tier magical event.
