"𝒯𝐻𝐸"

Spanish cartoonist Manuel Álvarez has been translating his gently surreal, occasionally violent short-run webcomic to English. Also the characters are animals but that's not important. The webcomic is called "THE". It is on Twitter and Instagram, and updates Monday to Thursday. CW so far: violence, simply drawn male nudity, a drug mention, death, blood, cannibalism (bloodless), guns, and recolors.
This looks great. I wish it wasn't done via twitter or Instagram. I don't hate both platforms, but it seems really useless for this purpose. Is there an actual website?

These are great fun. Thanks!
The direct parody stuff on the tubmlr site also looks like fun. There's enough slang that I have to look something up often, but I think it's actually my lack of knowledge of cartoons/comics rather than language that leaves me befuddled by most of them. Even my Simpsons and Super Mario Brothers knowledge is too old to be useful, it seems.
