Thursday's comic might have an ambiguous effect - might attract some readers, scare away others. It's a pretty sharp turn in the storyline, and doesn't really resemble the general content of the comic.

Thanks for the link to Lackadaisy, David L! It's a great comic, excellent detail and style, and hilarious characters. I just hope she keeps updating...

Re: Web Comics

Hehe, it's brilliant.

Oh, and back in the day, you also got me into Order of the Stick when you mentioned it somewhere else around here (possibly the riddles thread). Now I impatiently await Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays until the next installment! It's fantastic! And now I have this one as well

Re: Web Comics

Some more webcomic gems I've discovered, for those who need something to read this summer:

Rice Boy
Surreal art, magnificent story. This one is truly a must read.

Errant Story
Manga-style, fantasy-setting; very complex and interesting cast, albeit very text- and backstory-heavy, and relatively small fonts.

Gunnerkrigg Court
Heavily reminiscent of Gormenghast, with excellent setting, plot, art and characters, this is one of my favourites.

Gone with the Blastwave
Satiric nihilism from a war-zone. High-quality art, though a little slow on the update.

Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire
Daily updates, simple manga style, excellent plot and characterizations. It'll take you forever to move through the archives, though.

Re: Web Comics

Webcomics update (come on, folks, someone must be reading some of these):

XKCD
Stick figures in a well-written comic offering very inside jokes for anyone interested in maths, computers, internet and velociraptors.

The Book of Biff
One panel of daily updates following the inventive (and usually near-fatal) escapades of the eponymous protagonist Biff.

Re: Web Comics

Some of these are great! I'd heard of web comics but never tracked any down. Thanks for putting all these up! I might end up wasting as much time on these as I do on the Chrons - help me?!

Re: Web Comics

I read three web comics regularly:

Girl Genius,
Gunnerkrigg Court &
Pibgorn

The first and the last for the art and story, the middle one because it reminds me of my old school.
