Gunnerkrigg Court is a webcomic by Tom Siddell that updates three times a week. As of January 2012 it has 35 chapters and over 900 pages. The first 31 chapters have been released as three books.
The comic follows Antimony (Annie) Carver and her best friend Katerina (Kat) Donlan and their adventures in Gunnerkrigg Court, a huge school that holds many secrets. With the help of other characters (including Robot, the spirit Reynardine/Renard that is trapped in Annie's toy dog, Kat's parents, the mysterious Jones, and their classmates) they try to uncover the origins of Gunnerkrigg Court, its history with the realm of the etheric, Gillitie woods, and what happened to the ghost Jeannie. While Kat learns more and more about the castle's robots, Annie, guided by Jones and the trickster spirit Coyote, discovers her talents as a medium.
Fandom Overview
The comic has its own forum where fans gather to discuss and collect fanart. There is also fanart on deviantArt, several vids on Youtube, and a small fandom on Tumblr, but very little on journals like Livejournal. A fan project to perform the webcomic in an audiobook/slideshow movie format exists and the first chapter has been released in November 2011.[1] There is also a community to recreate Gunnerkrigg Court on Minecraft.[2]
The most popular pairing is Annie/Kat, followed by Gamma/Zimmy and Parley/Smith.
