Nozmo is a fanartist. She published original webcomics on SmackJeeves, including her unfinished comic Todd Allison and the Petunia Violet. Nozmo's accounts abruptly stopped updating in September 2015, after many had pre-ordered her fan merch and backed TAPV's Kickstarter campaign and had not received their purchases.[1][2][3]

Nozmo (zeeenya and junjouprince on tumblr, punkblues on twitter) is an artist that eventually rose to internet fame with her (ongoing) webcomic "Todd Allison and the Petunia Violet", after publishing a bunch of unfinished comics on SmackJeeves across the years.

A huge weeb and fanartist as well, Nozmo has dabbled in many fandoms (most notoriously Free!, Yowapeda, Miraculous Ladybug and YuGiOh Arc-V) prdoucing fanart and doujinshi that she put up for sale.

Around September 2015, Nozmo dropped off the face of earth… along with the money of all those who several months prior had preordered her Free! and Arc-V merchandise and never received it.

A new, one-shot comic by Nozmo was posted on her SJ account around November-December 2015. She did not try to contact any of the people waiting on their purchases, nor did she resurface on any of her social media. She simply uploaded the comic without any kind of notice and disappeared again.

Eventually, things started to move, people started to investigate. Some came forward claiming that it's not the first time Nozmo has done this, that there are fans who haven't even received their rewards for backing the TAPV kickstarter (2014). [4]

People seeking answers contacted Nozmo's sister, who said that she had become overwhelmed when unable to fulfill purchases and rewards due to her own procrastination. Some backers finally began to receive their rewards around 2016 and 2017, but it not known if all rewards were delivered.

In late 2018, Nozmo began updating her webcomics again.

In October 2019, is was discovered that Nozmo had reemerged with a new account, dyscotheque, on Twitter. She had been keeping to Japanese fandom communities, such as Pixiv, in the intermittent years.[5] Many began to criticize her for her past scam and her sexual art of underage characters. People also found a Twitter side account she had that was dedicated to Gru/Dru, a twincest pairing from Despicable Me, which received criticism and mockery.
