For fans of cryptids, try Canadian trans artist Sfé R. Monster's collection of monster-centric comics.
Included below is Eth's Skin, a webcomic with a focus on "mermaids, selkies, and sea monsters living in the old growth forests along the northern coast of British Columbia." Gorgeous character designs and visuals---plus this particular webcomic is free-to-read.
Sfé explains their method on their Patreon page thusly:
I create exclusively queer and genderqueer stories- comics that explore the width and breadth of gender identity, and showcase and celebrate the diversity of queerness.
I am also a monster enthusiast, having made projects ... that investigate the weird, wonderful, and occasionally woeful creatures that lurk around the edge of our reality.
Mystical beasts are an area of interest for us at Pen & Anvil. We are huge fans of Jorge Luis Borges and his Book of Imaginary Beings, even contributing new entries with our "New Book of Imaginary Beings," published to Clarion issue 17 in the winter of 2014. Over on Twitter, @dasneuesbuch serves as our tribute to Borges' bestiary.
