The first four pages of a zine. The background of all pages is cream paper with blue lines. The top page says Classroom Monsters! in black letters. The M in monsters is covered in blue fur with two teeth at the bottom of the M. Below that it says Ari Coester and @astro-axolotl. Around the edges of the paper are a piece of each of the monsters in the pages of the books. Clockwise from top: an insect mouth with sharp teeth, a blue snail tail leaving a trail of dark purple glittery slime, two eyes on stalks, two triangular horns, an insect leg, and a scaly tail with a yellow paper airplane on the tail.
The next page is titled Munch Box in red. It is an orange lunch box with a red devil tail, blue furry legs with white claws, and a red forked tongue coming out from between sharp teeth. It has two cream horns near a gold handle. Its eye stares at the viewer. The text below reads "looks like a lunch box to trick you into putting food into it. DO NOT FEED!!"
The next page says Pencil Eater in Red. It is a red pencil sharpener with 4 black insect legs on the left and two on the right. The hole of the sharpener has three sharp teeth, two on top and one on bottom. A crest of pencil shaving comes out of the back. Two eyes on stalks are on the opposite side of the hole and stare back at the viewer. The text below says: "Eats pencil lead. Keeps wood shaving on back to look bigger. "
The last page is titled Eraser Crab in red. It's a pink pencil eraser topper with an eye in the hole and a small red semi-circular mouth beneath it. In the mouth is a pencil shaving. It has eight red legs, four on each side. The text below says "scavenge pencil shavings. switch eraser shells as they get bigger."

The last three pages of the zine. The top page is titled Spider Plant. It is a terracota pot with a succulent in the dirt. The center bud of the succulent is red purple and the rest of the leaves are green. The pot has one large eye and two stickers: a star and a rainbow. It has 8 legs arranged in a circle around the water catching dish. The text below says "gives the plant a home in exchange for sugars. Plant also helps camouflage."
The next page is titled in red "Paper Griffen". It's a yellow paper airplane with blue squiggles drawn all over it and an eye near the nose. Two orange bird legs with sharp talons are curled beneath the body. A green scaled tail comes from the central crease and curls around the plane. The tip has a smaller paper air plane. There are black motion lines near the tail. The text reads "can't fly, only glide. uses tail for steering." The last page is titled in red Snue. It's a purple glitter glue bottle with slightly off Elmer's branding and lettering. The orange cap has two eyes on blue stalks coming out of it. The foot of the snue comes out of the underside of the bottle. It is light blue and leaves behind a trail of purple glitter glue. The small text reads "Can pull whole body into bottle for safety. Leaves behind a glittery slime trail."

A silly comic about some monsters that live in classrooms. Look more closely at your school supplies.

A white mug sits on a wooden table in the morning sun. Inside the mug, there is a small coral reef with green, pink, yellow, and purple corals and anemones. Above the reef, many fish in the same colors swim. Near the top of the water, a school of five eagle rays swims near the right edge of the mug and a black tipped reef shark swims near the left edge. The water's surface ripples and shimmers. On the outside of the mug's left side, a white hand rests. A black sweater pools around its wrist

I think something is wrong with my coffee maker....

The first four pages of a zine. The first page has a house sparrow flying with a stick in her claws and a worm in her mouth. The background is a blue sky. The word above her is Resilience. Below her the words are the author's name (Ari Coester) and tumblr handle (astro-axolotl). The second page has a yellow stucco store front with a red letters that say HOME. There are spikes on any flat surface. The sky is blue with a few clouds. The top line reads "the coporate bigwigs had antibird spikes put up." The bottom line reads "to stop them from perching and pooping. The third page shows a sparrow perching on an antibird spike on top of the M. The text reads "The house sparrows were not deterred." The fourth page starts with the text "they built nests." A bird perches on a nest built in the H. Below another bird builds a nest in the O. A final bird works to build a nest in the middle of the M.

A four panel comic continuation of the comic above. On the fifth page, there's now 2 white eggs with brown speckles in the H nest. In the O nest two baby birds beg for food from their father, who brings them a worm. In the M nest a father sits with two larger chicks, one of who is screaming while the other sits there. The text says they raised families. The sixth page is a close up of the M nest. The mother is coming to land. The father sits on the back edge, and the 2 babies sit up front. On the M is the text "kept safe by what was meant to keep them out." The seventh is a repeat of the first page, covered in poop with many silhouettes of house sparrows flying in the sky above. The text says "And they are pooping more than ever. The final page is a brown sparrow feather on a blue background.

A giant reindeer made of telephone towers and lines that sucks white smoke from a power plant. Its red eye glows against a full yellow moon. Its legs disappear between the mountains and the crooked pines.

A spooky beast in time for halloween.

Some angsty raeda because I love them.

Image ID: In the upper left corner, Eda Clawthrone in her harpy form flies towards Raine, who is dressed in their barde coven uniform, in the bottom right corner. Raine is falling with their eyes closed. One of their arms is raised and Eda reaches with one arm for their hand. The background is a gradient from peach to dark purple, with peach in the upper left corner and purple in the bottom right.

A 3/4 view portrait of sea slug humanoid with teal skin and bright blue freckles. They match her round, pupil-less eyes that have black wings. On top of her skull is a blue goo resembling a short bob hair cut. Two black furred antennae sprout from it. On either side of her black lips are two small bright blue tentacles. She smiles, revealing sharp white teeth. In the dark water around her, glowing blue lights hang. End Id.

Made a little portrait of a sea slug lady complete with the head antennae and face sensory tentacles. I think we sometimes forget they're voracious predators so I gave her sharp teeth.

We love kickass femmes in this house.

Image Id: A young woman in a pale tank top and dark, pleated skirt stands in front of a stand of snowy pines beneath a dark purple sky. Her long back hair waves behind her in the wind. With one hand she wipes pink blood away from her black lips. The other hand holds a knife and it and her arm up to the elbow are coated in pink blood. Her body is painted in blue gray tones, and her eyes are pink. The sky is filled with snow.
