Storyline Guide for Polychrome Heroics
The superhero series Polychrome Heroics began by featuring Damask. Other characters soon emerged and the series grew a great deal more complex as fans asked for more poem about their favorites. This led to a large interwoven tapestry of storylines. Imagine a comic book company with a whole bunch of individual comics about a specific soup, some anthology titles of short appearances by diverse characters, and crossovers. LJ user natasiakith did the initial organization to track the major storylines so that readers can follow them more easily. (So far these don't include extras or fanworks.)
