Comic Description & Plot Outline


A collaboration between myself and the Deviant Artist, Cat (https://www.deviantart.com/silverbettaCCT), based on a role-play we performed with one another. It serves mainly as an introduction and character building for Cat’s new Gengar OC, Aadvay, but is also a reflection of our newfound friendship with each other, as told through our characters. This comic is still being worked on, so come back soon for further pages!

The title of this comic is a dual pun — referring to the main characters being two Gengar (“double Ganger”), and referencing a common theory as to how the Gengar species became so named. Gengar are well-known for their ability to slip into people’s shadows and imitate them, essentially becoming the “double” of their shadow; just as in German folklore, doppelganger are people or beings who are perceived to be the double of another.
