Webtoon. I wrote that title so you’d read this piece about the act of reading Webtoon comics. Yes, the vertical scroll is perfect for building to suspense and comedic moments. An artist can use the length of the scroll to control the pacing of a scene. For example, a reaction panel can be placed just off the bottom of the screen so that the reader has to scroll down to see the character’s expression in that moment. If a comic were online and all the panels for a page were displayed all at once or the comic was read horizontally page by page click by click then the comedic moments would not be timed as well. The medium is the message and ‘Mi Casa Es Tu Casa’ is a Webtoon comic designed for a specific Webtoon size “canvas” and so it must be read on Webtoon in order to get the full intended experience of the comic. Any other format would be a watered down or compromised version of the work, much like watching a wide screen movie pan and scan to fit a smaller old TV.

One last thing to check: university digital libraries and online art portfolios. If the creator was a student, their thesis project might have been the comic in question. University thesis projects are often archived on the university's repository website, and are frequently made publicly available. Search for the title of your mystery comic, preceded by terms like 'portfolio', 'thesis', 'BFA', 'MFA'. It's a very academic route of investigation, but I've found some amazing stuff - including some stunningly animated shorts and graphic novels - on .edu domains that aren't available anywhere else on the web. It's a bit of a long shot, but the potential reward is a hidden masterpiece.

Just lurking here because I'm also curious now. That title is a sentence and a half.

After 20 chapters or so I got bored with Manhwa. At the start the concept of having these ‘monster tenants’ living with humans was cool and I got sucked into the Manhwa straight away. But it’s just been this long string of episodic chapters each one presenting a new problem that is then solved within the chapter, and little or no consequence falling on the characters within the story. It gets pretty tiring after a while. I expect more from my Manhwa than what I’m reading here, tons of Manhwa has just as much, if not more urban fantasy and/or comedy elements. This Manhwa has some ok art but nothing that will have you stop and gaze in wonder at it after a few pages. Perhaps later in the story it develops more into a serialized story, but for now I’m just not interested anymore. If you’re some sort of hardcore fan of Manhwa than I suggest you read it, but for people with limited time to read it there are far better titles to the urban fantasy and/or comedy genres.

This would be the one with the fox spirit and the twin infants, right? That is so cute. Print? I wouldn’t count on it. These webcomics are basically created as free labor. Authors are paid in moderation for webcomics in the form of ads and Patreon, but a print version of their work would demand so much more. In addition to the author, you would also have to pay a layout artist, a printing service, a shipping company, and people to deal with customers. That is not something that most webcomic authors could hope to afford. Some of the sweeter ones have been picked up by publishers from time to time, but that is very much the exception to the rule. Your best chance is probably for the author to make it as a passion project at some point. Until then, go read it online and recommend it to people.

I think of this as more of a story than a main plot. A mystery that unfolds throughout this slice-of-life type of story. Kang Younghyun does a great job in creating this weird building and then giving us a series of anthology-like chapters where we get to see the different tenants and their stories – a ghost looking to clear up some unfinished business, a goblin running a black market in the building, a human family living next door completely unaware of their strange neighbors. The plot basically follows Younghyun as he tries to piece together the different stories to determine the purpose of the building. His trying to maintain the delicate truce is full of tension, and it appears his past is connected to the building in some way that he’s only just beginning to realize. The artwork is detailed and gritty making every cracked wall and dark shadow feel important.

For this comic, I consider Lezhin to be the official host of the fandom, mostly because the comic is posted on Lezhin first, and thus most of the comic’s fan discussions take place in the comments on each chapter on Lezhin, as well as on subreddits/Discord servers dedicated to the comic. If you’re reading the comic officially, you get to read it at the same pace as everyone else, which is great for participating in weekly sessions of guessing and Speculation about upcoming storylines. All that anticipation and discussion between chapters of a modern serialized comic is half the fun, and you wouldn’t get to experience that if you were to read the comic on a pirate site and read it all at once.

What is the official stance of Shueisha (or other companies) towards fan-created comics? I assume they are legal under fair use when used as parody or commentary, but the line gets blurred when a fan writes a completely alternate story. Most fan-created comics are non-commercial, which would likely be the reason they are left alone by big companies. They are extremely fascinating, but also sort of anxiety-provoking to me. I really like ‘I See You’ but I fear that one day a company may send a cease-and-desist and the comic will be taken off of the internet. So, I silently download all of the pages to my computer in case.

And the anonymity of the story adds to its mystery. This beautiful and melancholic piece about an anonymous connection between two human beings has been created by unknown people and thus we readers connect with the story without knowing who created it. And in the same way as the two main characters of the story experience warmth, we experience it too as we are reading this story about an anonymous connection between two unknown human beings. Maybe that was even the intention of the creators of this story. (I’m probably overthinking this now…).

It's obvious that it wouldn't be too difficult for hosting sites to number chapters sequentially (i.e. Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 2b, Chapter 3, Chapter 3.5, Chapter 4 (re-upload)... for this comic, for example). But for some reason, they haven't chosen to. As a result, sometimes Chapter 21: Part A is listed, and then Chapter 21: Part B will follow (on a particular site), while on another the whole thing is listed as a single upload Chapter 21. Therefore, when we are counting up the total number of chapters for a particular comic, we must take note that chapters with letters or 'part's in their titles are often counted as separate chapters in lists. This is usually because the site that compiled the list has tried to keep as much as possible to the original format in which the chapters were posted. In contrast, a site that compiled a list of chapters for a comic by lumping together all all multi-part chapters would likely return a lower total. Hence, it is best to look for lists of chapters with letters or 'part's in the titles, rather than lists that have been compiled in this latter way.
