Currently working on only 2  <<EDIT: potential webcomics.>> webcomics at the moment.  

The most work has been done on the one simply called Doctor Who.  Basically, it's a jump to the future of Doctor Who, starring my own 12th Doctor.  I've had stories and characters in mind since I became a fan, and now I'm really fleshing them out!  Character sketches to be uploaded soon.  

Other projects: Parker and Darker, the crap comic I made in Middle School is being remade as something decent.  About 2 buddies Ben Parker and Sten Darker (my internet-name sake).  It was a comedy/satire that delves heavily into BS scifi (at it's height, my characters threw mentos into Jupiter and it reacted as cola would... the entire planet).  It wasn't very good, though, so I want to work on it eventually, but it's on the shelf at the moment.

The Deca: A Doctor Who prequel starring the Doctor as a 90 year-old "teenager" living at the Prydonian Academy.  Theta Sigma (The Doctor's nickname before he became "the Doctor") is part of a clique mostly made up of his future Arch Rivals including Ushas (The Rani) and Koschei (The Master) who have ambitious plans to restructure Gallifreyan society away from its dusty, secluded culture into something that values more personal freedom and achievement.  To what end, they cannot all agree.  Koschei thinks the Time Lords should take dominion over time instead of merely observing it.  Thete (Theta Sigma [The Doctor]) thinks they should extend diplomatic relations with "primitive" societies and act as a guardian.  Ushas believes scientific discovery justifies anything, and wants Time Lord scientists to stop limiting their already massive knowledge and experiment.    For the time being, they just play pranks, hold protests, and spy on things to try and protect the students and make a difference to Gallifrey in small ways.

The only reason the individual members haven't been expelled by now is because every member also happens to be some of the smartest young minds in generations.  But, when so close to graduating (only 10 years left!) they're starting to fall apart.  Koschei is losing his grip on his sanity, the mysterious 4 beats he's heard since he was 8 years old is the cause.  Ushas is losing patience, the future Meddling Monk is growing too obsessed with the creed of the Deca, and Thete is desperately trying to keep his friends together, and keep them sane.  

The Deca is my favourite project, but it's taken a back seat to Doctor Who, since I'm getting more ideas from it.

I'm also working on an 11 Doctors comic, but it's more of a joke.  I'm taking it as seriously as I possibly can when sketching them in my notebook using xkcd-like stick figures


IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN LENDING A HAND
any and all help is appreciated.  From doing backgrounds and coloring, to even simple tips on characterization, or story ideas, or even volunteering to let me bounce ideas off of you, it would be very much appreciated!!

Hello, I'm Sten Darker.  You may remember me from such classics as Intro, I'z been tagged..., and Merry Christmas Indeed!  I'm here to tell you about my 2 upcomming projects!  

First-off, is Parker and Darker.  This webcomic is about two good friends with entertaining (and sometimes awkword) adventures in High School.  Unfortunately, this idea has devolved from an action-comedy, to a comedy.  But, I assure you, I WILL re-integrate the violence! XD  I've already got 2 strips in rough-draft form.  It's all pencil-and-paper, but hopefully I can avoid having to use lined-paper for the final product.  As the plot thickens, the strips should become pages.  But for now, I plan to start with a searies of (probably only) loosly related strips.

If anyone wants to lend a hand, I'd love any help I can get!  For instance, if someone could sketch backgrounds, and then edit my guys into it w/ photoshop, or something.  and coloring!  If you can get it colored and make it more... ya' know... not all pencil-on-paper-and-scanned-unprofessionally, that would be great!   Otherwise, if ANYONE wants to find-out more, or has ideas, or suggestions/tips, or ANYTHING, just send me a note!  

Second in priority is The Deca!  This web-comic is a Doctor Who prequel about the Doctor'sadventures as "Thete"(short for Theta Sigma, which means it's short for a nickname.  His real name still isn't known)  He's part of a group of rebelious (yet genious) teenagers (90-ish years old, I'm gonna say, is teenage in Timelord)  The Deca is made up of Thete, as well as several of his friends who are destined to be his enemies.  Koschei, his closest friend will one-day be The Master.  His friends also include The future Rani, Meddling Monk, and Celestial Toymaker!   This IS an action-story, and I'm gonna need the same kind of help as P & D, but what I can't go without is writters.  Character, or plot, will do.  I need people to bounce ideas off too, and people to give their ideas to me!  If your interested, and you want to see your fanfic of the Doctor in the Academy in comic-form, just send me a note!  
,
And then The Deca!   The Doctor Who prequel about the Doctor's adventures as "Thete" (or Theta Sigma)  and his little group of outcasts and trouble makers from the Academy.   What Thete doesn't know is that most of his friends will one day be his arch enemies: including Koschi (the Master) The Rani, the Meddling Monk, and the Celestial Toymaker!   

Inspired by the tardis.wikia.com article about a mention of it in a book.  The book isn't canon, so it's not important.  But the idea works!  Anyway, that's basically the cast in the article.

A brand new scanner!!!  It's wonderfull!!!   And, the scanner came with virtual Sudoku, and the Britannica Desktop Encyclopedia!    FRIGGIN' WOO!

Comics:

introductory chapter of Parker and Darker Completed.   

P&D is a comody/scifi/satire/autobiographical/biographical comic about two guys with no love life, superhero's, and unrealistic awesomeness!!
I came up with them in the 5th Grade, and set out to make it ever since.  and Gosh-Darn it, I will!!!

Gathering information regarding The Deca for Deca comic:  still at it.

The Deca is a spin-off fan series about The Doctor as a "kid."  Doctor Who as a kid, according to one of the books, was part of a group... a gang of sorts, consisting mostly of his future enemies, including The Rani, The War Chief, The Master, The Meddling Monk, etc.   but also a few future allies.  
This is their story.
