Webcomics Wednesday

Webcomic discussion

Today’s comic is a true Geek playground: https://xkcd.com

It is heavy in math and geekdom. The art Is mostly stick figures…but it is heavy in geek humor and smarts. I am not entirely sure how often it posts (I have never been able to get caught up through the archives on this one.) I think it is about every three days or so?

This one, there are times that it will be over my head…I guess I am just not smart enough for some of the jokes. The ones I do get are hilarious. I feel like it is okay not to get all the jokes on a comic if you enjoy some of them.

Today’s comic is a sweet little Zombie comic..http://deadwinter.cc

It updates from what I can see about every two weeks. The characters are interesting and the art is amazing. It’s mostly black and white with small bits of red occasionally thrown in for emphasis. It has been going since 2007 and seems to still have a decent story worth reading.

It doesn’t get really Gorey so I think even non-zombie readers could enjoy this comic.

Today’s comic is a sweet little furry comic…https://www.sdamned.com

It is updated usually once a week (Everyone has bad weeks…) I am still working on catching up on this one (I sort of got too caught up in life to keep up with my comics so I have to catch up on most of the ones I follow)

This Comic has a rich and well-written history. The art has been improving since it was started, but it has a softer edge to it, making it feel more like the person drawing it is not focusing completely on perfection instead focusing on the story. I like that if I am honest. Thought has obviously gone into the characters.

I think it is a fun comic. there is a lot of archives, but the comic is a fairly easy to read one so getting caught up should not take a huge amount of time.

I decided that I needed to change things a little. I am growing complacent on my blog, and that makes it no fun for me. I will start doing Webcomic Wednesday every week and take Thursday to talk about art/Share art (Artsy Fartsy Thursday). I will move my occasional Tea Party posts to Saturday.

Now I have at one point or another had over a hundred webcomics I followed. The update schedule varies between daily to whenever the artist remembers…I still have links to several comics that have ended because I enjoyed them so much. (I.E. https://www.girlswithslingshots.com & http://yume.rosalarian.com/archive/ ) I cried when they ended. And I have fallen behind periodically in my reading of the updates, only to revisit and start the arduous process of getting caught up all over again. I love the idea that the comics are waiting for me when I am able to come back to them.

Today I want to introduce you to one that has evolved quite well into one of my faves. https://www.goblinscomic.com is a really cute comic based on the idea of the monsters in an RPG and their ability to become PCs. The humor is on target, and the art is fun. Rich characters that are fun to read.

Webcomics Wednesday

Contemplating Reiko is a fun comic that rides a little on the dark side. It is mostly done in single page comics that rarely are sequential. I have spent hours reading the back comics and laughing my tail off.

According to the about page on the site ‘Contemplating Reiko is a wicked little cartoon strip about a wicked little girl named Reiko and her three sisters Shinobu, Shirabe, and Shihoka. ‘ I remember reading this comic as far back as 21 years ago. it has always been such a delight to read. The characters are very demonic, so the themes are evil. I personally enjoy Reiko and her antics.

So, tell me, what webcomics, if any, do you follow?

Webcomic Wednesday

I am now back able to work on getting updated on my favorite web-comics again. I have several who are no longer available. I have shared a few with you. Today I will share one that I am not updated on…but that I am slowly working through. I have to continue to clean up bookmarks, and get up to date on my favorites.

Today I want to share a comic based off of the writing of H.P. Lovecraft. You wouldn’t think that such deep philosophical writings could make anything resembling funny, but this web comic really has some great humor. Each comic has a bit of a stand alone feel, but I highly recommend going through the archives. It is very worth it.

With out any more delay….go into the http://www.goominet.com/unspeakable-vault/

Webcomics Wednesday

Hiya! Today I want to talk about one of the few comics that I am completely up-to-date on.

Questionable Content

This comic by Jeph Jacques is a near daily update. Weekdays only. It covers some tough topics with a bright sense of humor. A snarky and sarcastic vibe. I love that the characters all feel so real. He has given them flaws and personality. In the course of it’s run so far you can see growth in the main characters.

Reading this comic I have several times wanted to be in this world. I think that is the sign of a well written environment… The idea that the reader would want to climb into it and stay.

What webcomic do you recommend?

Webcomics Wednesday

It’s been a while since I have done this, so I thought that it was time to talk about a new comic. Eventually I plan on covering all of my favorite ones. Last time I talked about Dominic Deegan. Today, I want to talk about a relatively new comic. She has been posting for a couple of years. Geekasaurus is an adorably geeky family of dinosaurs. A fun sense of humor and a very wholesome family feel to it.

The artwork is cute. The writing is inspired. I highly recommend reading through the past comics.

What webcomics are your favorite? And why?

Webcomics Wednesday

Ok… This is a segment that I have been considering. I used to follow hundreds of webcomics. I have gotten behind due to the small screen I am most often working with. It makes checking the pages more difficult. Add in chaos… And I am far behind. I want to change that.

Some of my favorite comics have ended. And I have been needing to update the links. I follow quite a few comic creators on social media. I find them to be fairly interesting people. Well one of my absolute favorite comics is being continued again.

The artist moved on to another comic. He has grown since the first part of his comic. I used to check in daily. He is still one of my favorite creators. His stories are amazing.

I asked if he was only going to update past the summer. He said that he intends to continue on until further notice. I am so excited! He is doing a m/w/f update schedule. His current continuation is called The Legacy of Dominic Deegan. Help me show him that his work is truly appreciated.
