(2/1/7 = 10)

A cutesy version of the popular internet monster database, these manga style drawings do exactly what they say on the tin - oversimplify SCPs.

Instead of encyclopedia-length descriptions, these short comics include visual aides such as SCP sketches, text box factoids, and the sequential storytelling of the medium. For those more invested in the lore of SCP, I can see these being a bit TOO bare-bones to be of any real interest outside of neat curio. But for the rest of us, I can see these being a relatively interesting way of plunging into the universe to get a quick idea of what a certain SCP is really like and possibly using them as a diving board into the deeper, heftier lore of these things.

The art is a healthy mixture of Japanese and Internet memes, which helps to greatly contribute the ease and breeziness at which these go by. Given the sheer number of SCPs, I could see this series lasting a long time, and they are a nice place to go for a quick pinch of lore and to learn about these hyper-detailed creatures in a more readily accessible fashion.
