North World by Lars Brown is a graphic novel-type webcomic about a monster-fighting, sword-swinging fantasy hero who has been assigned by his guildmaster to go back to his suburban hometown (strip malls, old high school buddies who are struggling to pay the electric bill and raise their children, etc.) for whatever reason, and face the challenges he finds there.
In Hollywood pitch-speak, it would be described as The Legend of Zelda meets Clerks.
