Have you seen my indie animated series Where's Willow? - A Firefly City Story?


It's made less than $50 USD to date. Total self-funded production cost was about $1250. While way less than other indies, it's still a lot for one person. It was only so low because besides voice acting I made it all myself over 5 years.


My goal is to release my next project sometime towards the end of summer/start of autumn, but that depends on whether I can afford to set aside time to complete it by then.


Want more projects? Please support Firefly City stories to make them possible. It really helps!


If you aren't in a place where you can donate, spreading word about the series with others is also much appreciated!

Hi! I’m Mitch R., an artist, animator, voice actor, and music creator! Firefly City Stories is a collection of comics and animations about life in a fictional mountain city. I’ve been working on this project since roughly mid-2020.

While I’ve made shorter gag comics like WebCanids and fan stuff (Toons by Mitch) for years, Firefly City Stories is me trying to take things from life and distill them into something more meaningful and interesting.

I’ve been doing a lot behind the scenes, and I can’t wait to share more of that as well as the finished products! To start, here are some brief story synopses...

Where's Willow - A Firefly City Story

The story of a missing hiker, an isolated park ranger, unforgettable memories, and some ghostly mischief. It is a story of self-discovery and letting go.

I hope you enjoy what you find here, and that you’ll stick around to see what’s to come!
