edit data

Aleksi makes queer fantasy romance comics, stories, and art. Their stories tend to feature a character in their late 20s-30s who finally has a chance to follow (or find) their dream. Expect lots of romance and found family, and probably elves and armor of some sort.

Webcomics are published online as Alakotila.
Earliest books printed under some variation of P. Kotila. ...more
