The archive by creator and genre

Two menus sort the archive by creator and genre. You can find an artist such as Gina Biggs or Niki Smith, then look for another story in a similar vein.

Filters cover several parts of a story:

  • Settings, including fantasy, fairy tales and science fiction.
  • Practices, including BDSM, consensual bondage and power play.
  • Pairings and identities, including trans and non-binary characters.
  • Varied body types and adult ages.
  • Orientations, including asexual characters.

The free sampler introduces several artists. Beyond it, you read chapter by chapter in your browser on a phone or computer. No download option is advertised.

New instalments arrive in batches of a few pages. Titles include the series name and page numbers, helping you pick up a story such as Moth & Cat, Madame Mighty or Resonate.

For a longer evening, you can turn to the back catalogue of more than 15,000 pages. Archived stories are ready to read consecutively without waiting for another serial instalment.

Verdict

Who it suits

  • Reading queer, trans or lesbian porn comics
  • Picking stories by kink and by pairing
  • Subscribing for a year to a 15,000-page archive

Who should skip it

  • Waiting for quick installments of a single series
  • Downloading comics to keep them

Women-led stories, queer relationships and trans characters are good starting points for exploring Filthy Figments. A first month gives you time to try the filters and find your artists. The annual plan fits you once you follow several series and enjoy the back catalogue between updates.

Choosing by pairing or artist makes discovery particularly enjoyable at Filthy Figments. Its character-led stories and substantial back catalogue deserve four out of five. You need more patience following one ongoing series than reading through the archives.
