Growing Up Grunge is a Webcomic created by Komo, whose Deviantart can be found here. It features Komo, her sister Alicia, and their dog, Tilly as main characters. The plot so far is that Tilly and Zaff (a strange, yellow creature of Komo's own design) find a mysterious Zune laying about, and take it to Komo. As it turns out, the Zune is magical: instead of songs, its years, and what year is selected, the person wearing the headphones is transported to that time. One too many trips later, however, and the girls wind up where they least expect.
