OSC Literature and Manga Guide
 | This article is a work in progress. …well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editors’ notes. |
This is a project to catalogue as many OS-tan comic and literature series as we can.
OS-tan Comic Series
"95 OSR2.5-tan 4Koma"
The title for this series is unknown, this is the 4Koma (4-paneled manga) that introduced 95 OSR 2.5-tan, a semi-recurring character.
Linux-tan Comic
Mac Manga
This manga is the first, or at least the most well-known portrayal of the Canon Mac-tans (OS9 and "Generic" Mac/OSX) and their everyday lives.
OS-tangent
A gag series made of skits featuring various OS-tans and aspects of computer history. Successor to the long-defunct zerOSanity, which had failed due to difficulty and time constraints (and the writing needing improvement). Is now a 4Koma and is a collaborative effort.
Drawn by Deja Vu, this doujin is controversial for replacing a canon character (NT-tan) with a radically different design, and claiming the OS-tan series as their own.

Difficulties cataloging comics
There are many OS-tan doujin out there, but as of now, so few of them can be catalogued since most of them aren't available online. Of those that have been found and/or translated, most of them are one-shot/stand-alone strips, or the name of the doujin or artist just can't be found.
