Tails Gets Trolled is a webcomic created by Lazerbot. (insert basic synopsis here)
Story
The story of Tails Gets Trolled centers around the titular character, Tails, being trolled in the first chapter. Tails and friends soon enter conflict with The Trolls and things begin to spiral out of control as they realize that there is much more going on in the world than a conflict between the two groups, with later incidents revolving around revenge, multiple opposing factions, betrayal, necromancy, the clap, weed, romance, and more.
History
The comic began in 2011, when the first three pages were released on DeviantArt on October 10th, with further pages being released in a similar manner. The comic would continue on steadily up until 2015, taking a 2 year break until the most recent chapter, Chapter 22: The conclusion Part 2, was released in 2017. The script (and notes for what would occur in the following chapters) would later be released in text format on August 27th, 2017.
After releasing Chapter 22, Lazerbot had attempted to reboot the series with Tails Gets Trolled Polished, which received a lukewarm reception from fans, and did not continue past the first chapter. Since December 2017, the comic has been placed on an indefinite hold.

Reception
The comic gained much of its notoriety upon being discovered by Something Awful, and a thread was created on February 18, 2012. Many of its users expressed bewilderment at the rather bizarre and graphic depictions of Tails and friends being trolled and the ensuing chaos. SA users would later provide voice overs for the first few chapters, leading to an eventual audiobook/dramatic reading to be published on YouTube under the account "tailsgetstrolled". One of the SA users behind this project also produced ten songs based on the first ten chapters of the comic, and music videos for the first two songs.
A Know Your Meme article for the series was also added on March 16th, 2012. Later that same year, on May 23rd, a TVTropes page was also created for the series.
On May 2nd, 2018, YouTuber Ben Saint of the Pro Crastinators Podcast uploaded an extensive lecture focused on explaining the happenings of Tails Gets Trolled which has gained over ~220k+ views.
The comic has also gained a notable following on the "Video Games" and "Comics & Cartoons" boards of 4chan, with "dumps" (group readings) happening from time to time.
The Unsettled Tom meme, gaining popularity around March 2019, originates from the comic.
