Unsounded?

>>146974789hey, thanks a lotsomething that i haven't really stopped to think much about is just how much of a disparity there is between artists who are willing to publicly draw suggestive/porn art and how many aren't, and how that creates a rift of quality between the two. i've spent so much time browsing Hypnohub because when i was a teen i only cared about beating off, and the quality mean/median/mode for booru porn sites is so much lower than it is for all these public-facing SFW indie comics. it just warms me up inside to see this world still flourishing with no compromise after a good 25 years and makes me feel very hopeful for my future. lots of adventure to be had once these people start networking in real life and all the political unrest cools down, methinks!

I like homestuck, have you heard of it?. the first half is pretty good, the use of multimedia and interactivity truly brings the medium to it's full potential as not a simple comic, but an webcomic, that is something never done to the extent it did, is not only about the art, but the music, how is written, the silly games and even the site format or who was reading at the time of being published. the second half is okay, it starts strong but the ending is a wet far that kinda ruins the whole experience.

>>146988640In regards to D&D comics, I like goblins, but some people think its melodramatic. ( doesnt bother me tho):https://www.goblinscomic.com/comic/06252005

>>146988678I agree, I'd also recommend Goblins. The webcomic itself is good, though the author is a mess, but if you ignore their real life drama then you're good.
>>146974584Pokemon Victory Firehttps://www.deviantart.com/sulfurbunny/art/PMD-VF-000-This-is-a-story-from-long-ago-288225011it's unfinished, and by what the name suggests, it's obviously basically just fanfiction. but i still think the story stands well on its own. there's a few characters and moments from games that can be a bit hard to wrap your head around if you don't know much about the franchise, but i think the good writing will help take care of that confusion.good art, good writing (good dialogue and neat worldbuilding)... it's all you could ask for, really.
>>146974584Some people already mentioned some I like (such as KSBD), so here are some other ones of my favorites. They include:https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/deathsitter/deathsitter/viewer?title_no=293285&episode_no=1 (currently on hiatus).https://halo-head.com/comic/welcome-to-halo-head/https://feastforaking.com/comic/chapter-one/ (Has a few sex scenes that make it NSFW).https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/cat-girl/genetically-engineered-super-companions/viewer?title_no=666229&episode_no=1 (also on hiatus)https://ennuigo.thecomicseries.com/comics/first (Has some porn scenes during the first half of the comic.

>>146988686If we only read comics and listened to music from stable artists we'd have almost nothing left.
Someone link the comic about a trainer and nidoqueen and their will they won't they fuck this time around dynamic
Is tinderkell worth reading? At a glance this looks like prequeladventure 2
>>146988693>Green Knight>This one's website died, but the original story arc is finished.Two arcs, actually: The knight's own quest to try and lift his own curse, and the return home to an ongoing succession warAlso, as much as I can understand a baby making life too busy to handle a comic on the side, it was still weirdly abrupt how the comic went from "sorry guys, life's busy, see you again some day hopefully" to a dead website in the span of a couple months. I hope he's doing alright.
>>146988720this the one? https://queenieadventure.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/#content-startfirst result for "nidoqueen webcomic", but the artstyle does have that romance-bait stank to it
https://sheepsclothing.thecomicseries.com/comics/1/>Bijou, a seamstress sheep, is captured by Big Bad, a wolf with a ripped formal dining coat. Will she escape the wolf's frightening manor, Thornbrook Howl?I'd been following this one as it updated, but decided to take a break at the end of the most recent chapter to let some pages build up, then read them all in one go. Next time I checked, it'd been about a year since the last update. Hopefully the author is okay and just taking a hiatus. They don't have any social media presence to check for activity on, so I don't know
>>146988753>Also, as much as I can understand a baby making life too busy to handle a comic on the side, it was still weirdly abrupt how the comic went from "sorry guys, life's busy, see you again some day hopefully" to a dead website in the span of a couple months.>I hope he's doing alright.He probably didnt feel like paying for the website, and it probably wasnt getting him much cash.Webcomics arent profitable for most people

>>146984120Holy balls, that dude didn't update his site even once since he started that comic, did he?
>>146989841Good, I like oldschool websites.
>>146989841You weren’t kidding. Honestly, it’s in good taste. Long live the Old Net
>>146988080Yes, it's errybody got problems: the comic. He got problems, she got problems, billion year old martian ghost robot got problems
>>146974584The Illustrated Guide to Law (lawcomic.net) isn't a typical webcomic, but it's a treasure and a joy. It's been on hiatus (or dead?) for several months now, but if you like deep dives it's the deepest. And fun.
>>146990039I like it. Nice and punchy, good visuals, good Martian ghost robot, doesn't overstay its welcome. It's way better than The Meek, the author's other comic people are still sucking off to this day. I get that people were into it when it just came out, when it was one of the first webcomics with professional level art. And casual nudity. But it's an overambitious slog with too many characters and a poor sense of tone.Also, the author is still raking in Patreon bucks despite having abandoned it entirely, which I'm considering more of an irresponsible, callous scam as time goes on
Some that haven't been mentioned:Schlock Mercenary (finished). Updated every day, with a full page spread on Sundays, for TWENTY YEARS. The early years are a little rough as the art style went through a bunch of changes, so people recommend a point midway through:https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2010-11-29Spacetrawlerhttps://www.baldwinpage.com/spacetrawler/Atomic Robo - Robot man does science hijinkshttps://www.atomic-robo.com/
>>146979718>and vore!
>>146990118To be fair, Schlock never stops looking like it was drawn by a spaz. I used to read it back in the day, and even caught up a few years ago, but Jesus is it rough on the eyes. And it's not funny. It gets by purely on being decent military science fiction, and I originally stopped reading it during that circus arc because it became all comedy. And it's just bad, baaaaaaad at it. Fuck, there's even a video of the author filling in for Brandon Sanderson in one of those fiction writing classes he does, and he's painfully unfunny there, too.Honestly, I think comedy is used as a crutch by a lot of webcomic artists who'd do something serious if they weren't art-blind.

>>146994460>>146994489>says the woman, who will throw a shitfit if you compare her to any other woman in any way, even if it's in a positive lightI don't think that's true. I think i've complemented women by comparing them to famous women in the past.I think the ego is the same for men and women. I have plenty of stories about my family members male and female acting super insecure about stupid shit.
>>146993056>It's basically Mad Max meets Conan the Barbarian meets your muscle girl folder. Haven't read it in a while, but with its long action scenes it's better for a good archive run.yeah thats a good description. I've been following it for a year or two now.
>>146994797>I think i've complemented women by comparing them to famous women in the past.>dead women and women completely out of their league aren't threats to their egoshockerI agree with you about not making wider generalizations, though
>>146994833I could definitely piss off the men in my family by comparing them to other men.The thing is that some comparisons can come across as passive aggressive insults. You have to be mindful of how you say things.
Still got a huge soft spot for Salamanstra, although updates were real spotty this year.Also Three Panel Soul, Misfile, El Goonish Shive and the Monster under the Bed.
>>146991417all I remember about that one is at one point a girl got pregnant but didn't know anything about pregnancy so she killed and ate the baby when it was born, real classy.
>>146974789I dunno how much I can recommend Lackadaisy since she's been stuck on the 3rd chapter for almost 10 years.

Why don't your favorite webcomics ever got a TV show?

Status: Dead by association>Camp WeedonwantchaGot an offer for a cartoon adaptation. Status: Dead, gone, stuck in copyright hell.Medium switching kills dozens of webcomics every year, in the US and overseas. Do not fall for the siren son song of a TV adaptation, do not heed false promises of simplicity from a switch to prose. You are unlikely to live to regret it.Do not become a statistic.

Are you going to make a webcomic this year, anon?
>>147005086I'll talk about and think about it but never do it
>>147005086It's bit of an Archaic medium by now, isn't it?
>>146974584They're all trash.
>>147005622>It's bit of an Archaic medium by now, isn't it?webtoons (vertical scrolling webcomics) are growing in popularity.
>>147006842what, are webnovels archaic too? how about podcasts?webcomics are as modern a *medium* as it gets for comic *media*
>>147007100>youtube cartoons are archaic
webcomics are over?
>>147008527No
>>147008527that one made by that absolute bitch should be prohibited. That woman is a bitch!!! an ugly and mean spirited bitch!!!!!
>>146974584Anyone else know of that one webcomic that turn Eve from the bible into a yuri fangirl?
>>147004282>Got an offer for a cartoon adaptation. Status: Dead, gone, stuck in copyright hellOnly copyright hell for the animation rights. The comic is fine, it just had a good stopping point, then she got busy with Animaniacs and never came back to it. Site is down though

Yes yes Oglaf is super funny.
>>146974743fuck yeah Achewood>>146974789God damn I miss Count Your Sheep>>146975128the problem is, early on, the whole point of webcomics was no rating. you could say all the cusses and draw all the boobs you wantthen people started making ad money. then the credit card companies said "money? we hate money, ban anything nsfw" and the hosts all got censored. then the hosts all closed and we have nothing left but mobileshit for comics.
>>146976174Funny, i've been tweaking my UI to look like windows 98 since 2006, when I finally stopped using windows 98. So to me that looks too futurey.>>146976946Oooh Cat Nine! That's a good one.

With distinct enough personalities to carry a cast that size? foxyfluffs really are everything
>>146984120jawesome. i need to check this out.not saying it applies to this one but it's a shame how many webcomic artists were like "I wanna make a cool serious story not beholden to any moronic executives saying "kids can't handle that"" and then they're so busy being mature and dramatic they forget to be fun
>>146985210oooooh i hadn't seen this! the last time i re-read it, I had to use a proprietary special version of firefox>>146988693feast for a king has to be one of the best comics ever because it's DRIPPING with gross leftiness, yet I kept reading it anyway. it was just that good. i drew the line at random as fuck gay marriage between people who should barely have a concept of marriage.fuckin miss Green Knight, that comic ruled.
>>146988753Whenever people quit because baby all i can think is "isn't this the perfect job? just monetize it a little more. you can work from home and be with your babbu"we all thought the Homestar guys went on hiatus because of babies, but in reality they were burned out.>>146988801yeah I guess hosting is really expensive now? which makes the lack of normal comic hosts a real piss in the eye. ComicGenesis is still up, but completely nonfunctional. the last mod stopped replying to my emails, the last artist I know who can still update isn't sure why...>>146989375I had a random thought today while watching someone play a demo of a game that isn't finished, that had some unfinished art and missing animations... what if THAT character was in Kid Radd, would he be embarrassed of his not finished sprite?
>>146990097The Meek started up pretty great, then went straight into "let's see just how tumblr we can be" territory til you literally couldn't tell who's male or female
>>146994460Kek. the hypocrisy. Why did we let them vote?hey did anyone read that one comic that's like, it starts out this weird cosmic story of the origin of life, then it cuts to the future where one of the gods possesses a little fat kid whose brain was gone, and.. then it just ends.

But maybe!>>147005622that's like saying "Isn't that just dripping with calories?" during a famine.
>>147010562I miss the wild west days of webcomics, where anything went. The only danger was being featured on Something Awful. How many got positive traffic after being featured?
>>147010944SomethingAwful is such a weird place because at the time they seemed like such elitist jerks, and now we know TONS of great creative products came from there, because they charged a buck for an account and would suspend you for typing like a fag, leaving the people putting in work to feel like they weren't in a sea of retardsthough in DemonTomatoDave's case, the challenge became "can I do a silly Christmas story every day in December while writing it like an excited illiterate child who should be banned" and he did. for years.I'm both relieved and disappointed that i'm not on bad webcomics wiki OR on tvtropes. I want to not be on their side.
>Elftor isn't online anymoreWhat the fuck?
>>147011155bad webcomics wiki is a half dozen of circle jerking losers now who have a hit list of no name comics they take half a year to get to
>>147011261indeed>>147011165aw man I remember Elftordoes anyone remember Trilokan? That sucker just ~evaporated~ without a trace one dayoh god and does anyone remember when Ryan Armand aka Copyrezo just disappeared and then his site went offline and nobody fucking knew what happened and we STILL don't have the entire thing backed up?
Anyone remember Exterminatus Now? For a bunch of sonic recolors, I actually found it pretty endearing for the time, and it ran much longer than I think anyone expected.
>>147011155>bad webcomics wikiThat's still around? Seems alot sadder to put work into something like that instead of just making your own webcomic. I'll take an earnest, if ultimately bad, effort over an entire wiki dedicated to being snide.

>>147012239LOL, sorry to disappoint, it just meant he was thinking with his junk
>>147012314OH oh, got it. the heart represents his OWN balls. yes there's a logic to that.
I used to read 30-40 webcomics regularly, bur most of them have finished/died during the last decade.As for the ongoing ones, I still read:>The Order of the Stickepic comedic D&D, very longrunning>Alfieporn with great interpersonal drama, starring worst girl>The Adventurous Scarlet Carolus technofantasy, girl growing up on a doomed planet>Widdershins Victorian era magic mysteries>Tigress Queen tribal warlord/nerdy prince culture clash>The Blesed & The Beast a suicidal nun and a dehibernated vampire>Necros a boy with necromancy skills and a fallen warrior looking for monsters to fight>The Hawk's Song 17th century Polish noble/peasant romance>Journey Upstream Christian animal allegory of a congregation going through life>Champions and Heroes laughing at Bioware games, mostly>Black Knight Grom a man defending people from their nightmares given shape; conspiracy and sfw bara>Wayne Family Adventures you know Batman?>>146988693>Green Knight>This one's website died, but the original story arc is finished.Thank you so much, anon, I was looking for this one to reread!
>>147012401Do you not save a folder of favorites/bookmarks that have finished? mine is massive. hundreds of dead or sleeping or retired comics.>christian animal allegoryoh that sounds great. A surprising number of people I follow are believers without getting uppity about it, and there's also some delightfully naive comics by Samuel Zarate that are actually very sweet and funny and occasionally badass. He's got a bunch of them, Lioness and Cub, Zero and Gravity, Double Blade, and ZAM! comics which includes a bunch of other smaller ones. Occasionally puts God stuff in there, just nice. I try to help him with his English because it's a little off sometimes.
>>147012491Bookmarks, yes. Unfortunately it does not help much with dead websites too often. RIP stuff by Illuminated. I really need to get into downloading stuff this year.I do recommend Journey Upstream very much! The art is nothing short of breathtaking. There was a bit of RL drama with the Journey Upstream author being accused of getting uppity about her beliefs due to another earlier Christian-themed comic of hers. Although it was mostly due to the vocal antireligious parts of her fanbase feeling betrayed over her announcing the end of her postapo horror Nordic fantasy adventure around that time.I'll try to check the comics you listed sometime soon!
>>147012547oh yeah totallyoh and i didn't realize his website died, and anon had provided you another link, and that's what you were excited for. yes yes.Yeah I'm reading this. Really neat stuff. Reminds me of pony discussions where we're like "we're all in agreement equestria jesus is a ram, right? ovines are jews? that works"Postapo you say?
>>147012558>oh and i didn't realize No sweat, I'm thankful you got me motivated.>Yeah I'm reading this. Really neat stuff. Glad you're enjoying this!>Postapo you say?Of the -80 years after the pandemic that turned people into fantasy monsters- variety. Stand Still Stay Silent. Completed, although the ending is quite rushed. I do recommend this one very strongly, but be aware that for most of the run it's a very slow burn type of story.
>>147012588oh neato. i didn't know that was a genre unto itself.
>>146988551Well, if you haven't tried, the JinkiesNoob checkpoint has an alright general knowledge of Aeris.Though I'd put joelasko on the negative unless that's what your after.
>>147011613It's a great resource for finding new weirdass lost media furry kink webcomics.
>>147010755>hey did anyone read that one comic that's like, it starts out this weird cosmic story of the origin of life, then it cuts to the future where one of the gods possesses a little fat kid whose brain was gone, and.. then it just ends.Yeah, I read that one. Can't remember what it was called, because it had a proper weird name. Then again, EVERYTHING was weird about that comic. The comic never hits that point, but it was pretty clear from the concept art that God-boy was going to become the next Hitler and do Mengele type shit to the genderless faun and taur critters. The author was a woman, BTW
>>147011613The problem with the bad webcomics wiki is that it tries to emulate the style of John Solomon, a short-lived but popular blog that made fun of bad webcomics. In retrospect John Solomon wasn't all that funny, and bad webcomics wiki is worse. And you just can't point and laugh at the retards when you're one of them.>>147011629>>147011677The bad webcomics wiki never perpetrated smear campaigns with the express purpose of removing the offending material from the internet and the offending persons from their livelihood. That's the definition of "cancel culture". It means a person is "canceled". But you know that, and you're just doing the culture war thing of trying to obfuscate tactics you approve of by trying to retroactively foist them on literally everyone.>yeah but you're supposed to have fun with it. be lighthearted and never punch down.Yeah, there we go. Reddit is that way, you authoritarian faggot. Go choke on boots over there.

Are webcomics dead? They used to be big part of internet culture. I don't even remember when was the last time a webcomic became a viral hit
>>147011571They had a cameo appearance in that Sonic Chalkeaters song a couple of years back, they were in the bar at the end of the song
>>147014367Why do people keep posting this goddamn question every time we have these threads? No Anon, webcomics are alive. And if you want to count webtoons, they are more popular than ever. I don't want to count webtoons, because they're so far removed from traditional webcomics that they might as well be something completely different. All the BL garbage might as well not exist for me. Here's the thing, though: Comics are nerd shit. Webcomics are also nerd shit. The internet rapidly normified after the turn of the millennium, so the proportion of nerds to normies is lower than ever. I mean, you know the young people who have completely abandoned Facebook because their grannies and aunts started using it? Yeah, THEY were the normies who came in and ruined it for us nerds. Let alone their grannies and aunts.What you remember as internet culture was a nerd-heavy environment. Today, wider internet culture is infused with the attitudes of general society. You want a viral hit webcomic? Lore Olypmpus. There you go. Boring romance with a babby's first experience with art style. It won awards. It was advertised in actual public spaces. I don't know, homie. I'll take the shit only nerds have heard of.
>>147014797/co/ doesn't consider relatable twitter comics or webtoons to be webcomics for some reason
>>147003925i miss the old look of twokinds, the new style is unappealing. not sure why exactly but maybe the eyes are drawn too far up
>>147015319My favorite thing I noticed about twokinds is that the only time tom has characters break out of panels is to show off their feet

>>147016314You keep count?
>>147016314i've made a list. it's really, really not all that much, at least from what i can remember. i'll give each and every one of them a rating, i'm bored.>Bittersweet Candy Bowlthis is the most indifferent i've felt towards a story. high school cats, basically. a lot of drama that's not written very well. 5/10.>Pokemon: Victory Firenot really interested in the Pokemon games, but i do like the Pokemon themselves. has really good and engaging characters, nice world building, and impressive art. it's unfinished, though. 8.5/10>Team Fortress 2 main comicsperfect. great art, great jokes, great characters. not much to complain about here, unless you wanna mention how long it took for the final issue to come out. 10/10.>Drop-Outwhat the characters are is what most people call "wokeshit", but i actually didn't mind the comic. i don't relate to the two main characters, but i found them decent enough. the art's a little weird, but it's serviceable. 7/10.>Legoshi enters a dinerit's basically just a giant meme, but i think it still counts as a webcomic, since it has quite a lot of pages for a shitpost. 7/10.>Dog Hausbit of a gag comic, but it does have storylines. it's funny sometimes, but i think the comic is just trying to be silly but honest and serious at the same time. 7/10.>Feliniastory about a fox meeting anthro foxes. got discontinued then the creator went to work on Satina (which i find to be better, honestly). when i read it years ago, i thought it was pretty good, but looking back now, maybe not so much. 7.5/10.>Off Saving The Worldaliens and a human trying to save the world, discontinued. the writing feels kind of forced and a bit childish whenever i remember it. 4/10.i'm really starting to want to read more and read better stuff at this point, gonna be honest
>>147016899>Bittersweet Candy BowlThe official furry webcomic of /co/
>>147013281oh shit i thought he was gonna learn his lesson about how easy it is for people to be swayed
>>147013341No, they and their ilk absolutely did. I'm not sure how you can say with a straight face that they didn't.Like I said, they largely didn't have the power to back then, but they still did it. And whenever possible, they would dox people, report them, DDoS them, and call themselves righteous for it.
>>147014367internet is dead
>>147018063OK, maybe I'm wrong. Do you have proof of this?
>>147010808>better hope you dont offend their narrow sensibilities. they are real "track you down and ban you "for offsite activity"" fucks.webtoon or comicfury?Comic fury hosts ennuigo, which has a porn spinoff.
>>147014797i wish we could just make our own internet totally segregated.
>>147011155>bad webcomics wiki>>147011261 webcomics are already niche, and that wiki is even more so. most of the articles are written by a handful of people. I think its leess than 10 active users.Tvtropes is no where near as dead (I can pull out stats if you want).badwebcomics wiki is also full of retards. It'd be hyperbolic to call them iliterate, but they lack a lot of reading comprehension. One I time I saw one of the admins skip massive parts of a comic and complain he didn't know what's going on.
>>147014797>>147015121There are some pretty good webtoons though. It's not all isekai garbage.
>>147011155>>147018899This site could be off, but it's a pretty big in the field of SEO. So, here's what it says.Badwebcomics gets about 65 thousand views a month, in comparison tvtropes gets about 20 million views a month.https://www.similarweb.com/website/badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/#overviewhttps://www.similarweb.com/website/tvtropes.org/#overviewThat's a MASSIVE difference.
>>147016314>>147016538I dont know how many webcomics i've read. definitely more than this guy (of course its not a contest) >>147016899anyways in the past few years i've began to write kinda-reviews for them (and other media I watch).Not like rating on scale from 1-10, but more like commentary and analysis. I note down what I think of certian parts i find memorable, or analyzing themes and such.Its not really for publication so far, just more for me to have fun.
>>147016314easily a thousand. if not, then somewhere in the range of 800.
>>147018227What kind of absolute reprobate would keep proof of that? Carefully catalogue all the wrong that a group did? that's what THEY do. I shrug it off and tell myself never to become like that, then it's gone. Forgotten until someone comes along saying "oh they aren't so bad"
>>147018942>>147018899oh yeah they are two very different things. they are just full of the same self-righteous lefty moralizers.
>>147019195>oh yeah they are two very different things. they are just full of the same self-righteous lefty moralizers.badwebcomics isn't lefty at all.
>>146974584Help finding a lost comic? It was set in a sort of solar punk futuristic world. Might have had interactive elements, at least animated speech bubbles iirc. Most of the action was at a mechanic's where a futuristic motorcycle was getting serviced.
>>147019288Maybe the people writing some of the very old reviews, but i've read the forums and there's nothing left leaning about their staff.
>>147019326it's inherent to what they're doing.. oh god i'll explain it to you later.
>>147019365whining about media is not something limited to a specific political viewpoint.
Poorly Planned Comics. An insane romp through the head of an actual schizophrenic, topped off with the man's manifesto-length suicide note. He supposedly launched himself from a hotel balcony. It had a lot of really neat ideas and is worthwhile on its own merits IMO. https://plorg.neocities.org/ppc/
>>146994108It still gets new comics every now and then. The creator stopped by here a couple times a year or two ago to vent and such, seemed to be getting on his feet from what I remember.Though I heard he worships ChatGPT like it's a god now but I haven't looked into it.

>>147019084It is your claim, Anon. The burden of proof lies with you. If you can't prove it, I have no reason to believe it.
>>147019400this goes beyond criticism. this is moral judgment and ganging up on people. all mobs are left, even if they believe they're right.
The fact that City of Reality is lost media breaks my heart. It was so damn good with clever use of the web medium ("read this chapter, then the time travel kicks in and you're sent back to the start but some of the pages load differently this time"). And whoops forgot to pay a bill, all gone, and reuploading would be too hard.
>>147019563>all mobs are left, even if they believe they're right.Gibberish hoping to looks like a good soundbite.
>>146974584>The Inexplicable Adventures of Bobhttps://bobadventures.thecomicseries.com/Long-running (as in, it started as a university newspaper's comic in the 90s, but has been online since '06) comic about some guy in weird situations. Pretty fun. Mediocre art.>Hagniss the Barbarianhttps://hagnisscomic.neocities.org/Relatively recent comic about a barbarian. VERY expressive art. Worth checking out. The guy what makes it also make animations based on it, which is neat.>The Adventures of Dr. Mcninjahttps://archive.org/details/DrmcninjaConcluded webcomic about a doctor who is also a ninja. Site's down, but the whole thing's been archived. Very much worth a read. Might be worth skipping to the chapter where the art gets color, honestly.>Hero Oh Herohttps://www.neorice.com/hoh_4068Several loosely connected, and concurrently running, stories rendered in reasonably charming pixel art. A little confusing to follow if you're as retarded as me, but still worth checking out to see if it catches your eye.>Sam and Fuzzyhttps://www.samandfuzzy.com/Another long-runner, having transitioned from goofy hijinks to elaborate dramatic storytelling over the years. Now that the actual story's wrapped up, the author has wound down to goofy hijinks again.>Keychain of Creationhttps://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0001.htmlFUCKING DEAD. More specifically, it was based on a /tg/-related game in the same vein as Order of The Stick and those who followed in its' footsteps. This one was an Exalted comic, if that means anything to you. Alas, the author developed fucking tendonitis.
God, I'd forgotten how many webcomics I'd read. Thanks for hitting me upside the head with all this. It's a good problem to have, to be drowning in vast quantities of passionately made comics (or, well, to be drowning in vast quantities of comics - some of which are passionately made), but this also helps remind me of the reason I *stopped* reading so many webcomics. Super fucking exhausting to keep up with all the one's worth reading.
>>146994977>almost five full years since the last page
>>147019497aw I haven't thought of Modest Medusa in ages. twas a very cute comic before the guy went totally kook on us.atomic robo guy always was, but it was a while before the comic started only featuring sideshave weirdos.>>147019503whatever you do, you're believing someone without proof. so pick the guy who's identifying an established pattern and standing up for people
>>147019599that looks really neat. also a comic about a stranger being helpful? as the young people say: based.
What comics would you put at the lower depths of a webcomic iceberg?
>>147019794I understand that she's been working on the animation stuff but she left us hanging at maybe the worst possible place.
>>147019794i've waited longer... but not by much. the last big one was.. i think it was called 'zelda comic' ? one of the last vestiges of spritecomics. it was actually really good, and i watched for fuckin years for it to update again.. and it finally did, but to say it's done. i'll take that over silence!man what happened to The Lounge / Rave Kitty?
>>147020025>aw I haven't thought of Modest Medusa in ages. twas a very cute comic before the guy went totally kook on us.I'd argue that it's a rollercoaster of a webcomic, and when it's bad it's a struggle, but it keeps going back to being good. Any time we go see the adventures in Yeld it tends to be a blast.
>>147020235
>>147020235yeah he is, at worst, one of the good ones. I just don't need medusa cheering at forced lesbullshit in korra, especially co-opting the catch phrase of the guy whose ending almost had the show ending on a good note.

>>146974584i always come back to gunshow every once in a whileeven ignoring Anime Club, his other stuff is good, especially "He is a Good Boy".
>>147021036no idea, I assume it's still going and he's put in an orange villain.
>>147021295larfleeze?
>>146990078I don't know what to tell you, anon. He was posting right up to the spring of 2024, then nothing. Silent ever since. Hope nothing happened to our guy.Especially since his alter ego here was as Schlitz.
Still going strong
>>147021541I mean, the goblin thing was cute, but right now it's just the dan thing of pages being spent on characters merely circulating information, not even having interesting reactions to it
>>146988551Scrape all the stuff that matches the style you want, or you can individually tag each "era" differently so that you can feed the AI all of it and specifically choose which version of her for the LoRA to refer to. Also make sure to mix in any on-model porn and such too.

>>146974743More like the goatseAchewood SUCKS. It's the webcomic equivalent of those early newspaper strips from before humor was invented.
>>147023283anon.. have you only glanced at it briefly?it looks like those on purpose, but once you actually read it, it's good. it's Carson Mell good.
The comic of that guy with a submersion fetish
>>147023344cute art
>>146990139As someone with a major fetish for bellies getting bigger and a smaller fetish for endo-vore, I'm half-mast. Thanks, random webcomic.
>>147023314I did read it. It's not funny. It just uses swearwords and some early 2000s edgy humor which I guess was groundbreaking when all you've read before was Garfield, but in perspective it's just trash.
>>147023444oh my god. you have this so backwards it's hard to believe you're real.This is grandpa humor and then some. it's humor from a rambling old man who has seen some SHIT in his life. interspersed with some very different characters like the adorable otter. edgy 2000s humor? It couldn't be further. And the way nothing ever violates the otter's innocence has to be at the center of that. Like i said, it's like Tarantula or Carson Mell's other stuff. real gruff and ashtray-flavored
>>147021504He posted on Patreon in october of last year, claiming he's working on a new entry and that it's a long one. Dude might just be slow.

I'm using MistoonNoob atm, maybe Noob is the part that has knowledge of her?>Though I'd put joelasko on the negative unless that's what your after.I like JoeLasko's general style, just not MASSIVE TITTY Aeris.

>>147023477So it *is* boomer humor comic with an occasional "fuck", which was my point.
>>147023344How is that a fetish
>>147024243With lots of bubbles
>>147024433Why don't they make a webcomic about mermaids then? Fuck it I'll give them a free idea. World got submerged in a great flood but humanity found a way to breathe underwater. Now your fetish is central to the plot. You're welcome.
>>147024433Reminds me of a post where an anon said he got a floating fetish from a tmnt episode where gravity was turned off
>>147024468>Why don't they make a webcomic about mermaids then?Because that's MY fetish and MY idea!!
>>147024854https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/the-little-trashmaid/list?title_no=300138
>>147014367they certainly arent as relevant as they used to be
>>147025530Not nearly fetishy enough

>>147027313>Why, does it?! have to be!
>not nearly fetishy enoughIt can go too far
>>147024243it's sensory and touches the body. these people have never been held or loved or physically disciplined.
>>146994460Of course, that's its job.
https://www.sdamned.com/It still updates. I still read. Simple as
>>147010685>feast for a king has to be one of the best comics everWhen does it get good? So far it's just a fat tumblr girl self-inserting about being a blank slate who all the bishies wanna fuck. Are you gay?
>>147029587Yeah, I'm not seeing it, either. You'd expect someone who draws 8000 pages (seriously? am I seeing this right?) to become a master of the form. Yet it looks like shit. The art barely improves between the first and last page.
>>146986022 (me)>>147028856Ahh!That's the one I couldn't remember the name of.
Unsounded is nearing completion now, so never a better time to get into it. It's like an epic fantasy novel in webcomic form. Art gets a lot better as it goes, but the writing and world building are the main reason to read it.
>>147016314A lot.This thing is old and I stopped trying to manage it, so it's missing more recent ones I've gotten into like Caelum Sky and Joe's second comic after Zebra Girl, Witch Warp.
>>147029868Oh yeah, this is another one I started reading recently that I haven't seen mentioned.I've got no idea how it compares to the actual Red vs Blue show since I never bothered to watch it, but it at least starts off as a furshit RvB ripoff.
>>146995480Wordpress with the Toocheke theme. DO NOT USE the older ones or you'll be stuck uploading each page one by one.I learned this the hardway after uploading 250 pages
>>147029993Almost forgot Wilde Life, which has an absolute garbage name but is one of my top five favorite comics right now.
>>147029810>who draws 8000 pagesWell, from what I've seen about 6500 of them are just going to be reaction faces. I'm gonna finish this thing but if the art stays this sketchy the whole way through I don't think I'm gonna like it.
>>147029868>Zebra Girlwas so fucking good and new one looks promising but like zebra girl will need some time to build upsome of these pulls on this list are obscure af makes me think about how every webcomic is someone's favorite
>>147029587Like I said, that garbage is in there, yet somehow you keep wanting to dig through it for the good nuggets. I don't know why it's that way...>>147029810ehhh? okay what do you think is good art. Like I despise the style, but I can't besmirch the quality.
>>147029993this is cute, I like these furriesoh oh oh unrelated but Golf Girl is a good comic. I wish it would update more. and so is Renata Tate.
Some webcomics with stories I've enjoyed:>Order of the StickD&D spoof with stick figure art, but solid writing. Starts off being mostly comedic with bare bones plot, but after the first arc it rapidly becomes more and more plot heavy, though still remembering to tell jokes almost every page. Decently funny read if you enjoy fantasy tropes, even if you don't know anything about D&D. It's very long, and still being made, so you will have something to keep you occupied for a while. It's also very SFW. >StarslipA sc-fi gag strip (lampooning Star Trek mostly) that turns into a serious drama as it goes. It's finished and can be read in one sitting if you have a few hours. SFW and easy reading. Since I haven't seen it recommended yet, here's a link: https://starslip.krisstraub.com/20050523.shtml>UnsoundedThis is THE epic fantasy webcomic. It's been heavily recommended already but I'll lend my voice to the chorus. It's got fantastic writing, both world-building and dialogue. The art is also pretty incredible, though a little rough on some pages at the start, the author shows her talent with a couple jaw-dropping full page illustrations. It's extremely long, running like 15 years now, and the final chapter is winding down now. It's also occasionally NSFW (nudity + gore).>Ennui GoThis is like 2 web comics that share a title. Part 1 is HEAVILY pornographic while Part 2 has zero porn content in it, and focuses on a different set of characters (though they are closely related to the cast of Part 1). You can think of Part 1 being about its main character: a sociopathic female billionaire game dev, and her insane antics and degenerate lifestyle. Starts off as a gag strip (with a lot of jokes about American comic books, notably) but has more and lengthier story arcs that get more serious. Once her story is done it shifts to her nephew and his friends, and it's a lot less episodic right off the bat in part 2, though it still does one-off gag strips now and then.
>>147030360>Like I said, that garbage is in there,I thought you meant that there was going to be trannies in it or something.
>>147030413well like I said they put gay marriage in there out of fucking nowhere, in a setting where i can't believe marriage even exists. and there's KINDA trannies but they're alien creatures so I let that shit slide. the titular King is a girl, but that's straight out of anime. It's just yknow, dripping with the smell of 2000s tumblrshit. and I give it credit because it got me to read REALLY far in while forgiving all of that, ignoring the huge red flags. We could all learn a thing or two about that.
>>147023344How would you make submersion central to the plot and have work? Would you read it?
>>147030360>okay what do you think is good art.A sense of style. First pages are fairly dynamic, but look like sketch art rather than finished work. And they could use a little more contrast. Last few pages are all just talking heads. One page after the other. Shot, countershot. It's visually boring. I looked at a bunch of pages and there was one panel that had some dynamism and set the scene better than the others.
>>147031741Finishedment, contrast, and panel composition do not sound like what you were complaining about.I will grant though that I'm the kinda person who sees everything as just talking heads, regardless of what actually happens. My brain just smushes it down to 'stage play / sprite comic' and that's where I see everything. so I don't notice if careful direction shots are missing.
>>147031785>finishedment, the unobtainium of webcomics
>>147032152i mean there are some webcomics that are fucking pro quality, but the result is they don't update as much as I'd like. Squires for Hire called. Like does he even know, he could cut the art down 50% and most people wouldn't notice or care?Nordlys (formerly Fjordson) sadly never got to become a webcomic because it got picked up as a PUBLISHED comic, so that being pro quality makes sense.. it's almost available in english. there's a pre-order on ammerzons.
>>147032870or there is a lot of>high effort>but on baffling subject matter
>>147032915this too. lot of those. i kinda cherrypicked the ones that I believe could be effortlessly launched onto the TV
>>146989818And the first batch's here>The Quest of Casey Tailor Mildly interesting and engaging story. Setting barely leans on the fantasy side of things, magic's just sort of there, nothing flashy. Story could well have been set in the modern day without much change.Major androgynous face issues, plenty "draw a girl and call it a boy" (and viceversa) characters. A couple niggers here, a couple pronouns there, and a gay couple on the side that's been quickly left behind as the plot progresses: All just flavor, really; with little bearing on the story so far. Tolerable.Plot itself is moving along just fine, if a bit slow. About 70 pages in and what I'm guessing is the main cast has finally assembled around helping the MC on his first hurdle (hitching a ride to town for info on his sister)>Clover and CutlassLesbian teen romance with nigger orcs, ten pages in and the main characters blurts out she's trans. Whether the author plans to make the comic about this LGBT stuff or they're just using it to earn SJW brownie points for advertisement's sake, it's clear I'm not the target audience.Character interactions and general writing irks me for some reason, feel too silly. Only positive is I find the artstyle oddly charming despite it's simplicity, at least in the fifteen pages or so I've read before dropping it.>Prophet of the sunKinda on the fence on this one. On one hand, interesting premise: Some poor dude becomes half prophet/half up street performer/half ticking bomb in it's attempt to both earn coin to live and hold back the murderous deity the MC is a conduit for.On the other hand: They/them MC with social anxiety and mommy issues. Felt like an author self-insert (and probably is), and so heavyhanded it nearly took me out of the comic. Reading some more though, it's actually working out fine, in a "MC is a tortured artist" kinda way? I might keep an eye on this one I guessHopefully next week's batch will be better
>>147033192I prefer The Chest of CasyTay
Guilty pleasures?
>>146976946God I love Ava so much it's un fucking real
>>147033978i love those colors. i'm a huge sucker for saturated yellow-orange, red, and desaturated darker purple. shit's so nice. it's the fantasy setting equivalent of red yellow green for making you hungry.
>>147019497>Kevin and KellNice, honestly been enjoying this comic ever since 2018.
>Girl GeniusLong running, fun art, updates like a clock.>Gunnerkrigg CourtNot amazing, decent art, good paneling whenever Coyote is talking, fun to talk about on /co/.>SinfestGoing into wild territory with him these days.>IT HURTS!!! and PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!Part of the same series, first is a wild apocalyptic adventure, second is a heart tugging SoL.>Laserwing/hyw/ series, rarely updates. Bunch of teens start getting super powers and meeting aliens. Give it a try, I love it. The author has a whole universe envisioned, when she isn't getting distracted by fucking Gaia adoptable pets.>How My Gardevoir Became A PornstarPokefucker comic, surprising amount of compelling drama and romance among all the tits. Sideproject focusing on Hex Manics.>Tad Danger: Substitute RangerAnother /hyw/ series, middleaged schlub freelancer with a modular combining robot in a world teeming with kaiju and mecha. Seems like he was building his own team before it went on hiatus when the author got married and decided to make a fighting game about plants. Think if Carl from ATHF moonlighted as a Power Ranger.
>>147034268Megan's love for adoptable pets is part of what makes her the perfect writer and artist for this comic! it's downright inspiring.>Tad DangerI dunno if the marriage had anything to do with the hiatus, but Passy and Smacky are the cutest damn couple and I'm so glad that worked out. I was rooting for them from the getgo.

I forgot how weird this comic got.
>>147037618
>>147011571I do, it was a really good comic that mixed well the autism of Sonic and 40K.>>147014372And the cats all dressed alike are form that song video: "Caravan Place - Lone Digger."Of my own Furry shit I would recommend plush and blood since nobody else ever does.https://plushandblood.com/Comic.php?strip_id=1It has a finished arc as a prologue and then continues with a post-apocalyptic story.Basically an evil dictator pursuing safety and stability replaces half the population into sleeper agents by converting their insides with stuffing. The second arc is a super cyborg kitty cat adopting kittens and slaughtering cannibals and raiders.
>>147037663>plush and bloodholy shitI remember this being one of the first webcomics I read, like 15 years ago, back when I lacked the foresight to bookmark shit. one a dozen comics whose title I've forgotten, and get flashbacks of once in a whileguess I know what I'm (re-)reading the next couple days, thanks anon

>>147038468>Strays actually finishedWell shit, I gave up on it during a hiatus figuring it was never coming back.
>>147037618>>147037634Hell, that's a comic I haven't seen in a while. The one comic I remember was the animals trying to fuck up some dude's date, and then it turned out she was into some freaky shit.
>webcomic thread>30% of it is crappy fetish comicsThe usual, I suppose
>>147038667i wish i'd done that. my comic was always way too quick at the beginning. just so impatient to get to the new meaty ideas. but later on you really wish you spent more time in the old days.
>>147039835I'll take that over the gay.
>>147039835You're projecting. How else are you supposed to stay motivated making it?
>>147039835>only 30%I was expecting more honestly.
>>147040186Depends on your definition. If furries or incidental tf counts then sure whatever the fuck. Next level is clean comics that started becoming about fetishes like Housepets. Then the deepest level of the iceberg is mindfucks like Latex Blue or Reiger's comic.
>>146975173>the gloamingJesus, what the fuck am I reading? Am I supposed to fap to this?
>>147040186aww they did a time skip?
>>147040240What would Professor Amazing and the Incredible Golden Fox classify as?
Out of Placers is really good. I love me some bug chicks
I stopped reading Buttersafe when he started doing clumsy preaching about covid restrictions, but I imagine he feels dumb about that and he has never once done it again, so I went back and caught up.
>>147040647>he went on a two year hiatus mid-chapter of his bad looking comic to learn 3D animation and make an absolutely atrocious looking showReading this personal fantasy trash was my guilty pleasure, but I don't know if I can stomach this.
>>147040240>Reiger's comicNot being able to finish his batshit insane comic is how I know for sure this isn't the best timeline in existence.
>>147011571I remember this and Psyguy (green Sonic recolor with swirly eyes). He made sprite comics and also drew them too. Did some flash animations as well.
>>147040726What kind of comic is this? Like Jack?
>>147040726What he did to badger tits (the best character) was really shitty.
>>147040813Psyguy's stuff was great. I was a big fan of Urchin's work too. ahhh the memories. all gone now because women lie.
>>147040839It's a modern fantasy Caligula.
>>147040841Oh please don't start this crap.
>>147040841>>147040872idgi qrd
>>147040872It was bullshit and too much to swallow.
>>147040892>your webcomic won't go on forever if that happens to half the castSeems economically efficient to storytelling
>badger titsman that just reminds me of Pencilforge's cool comic with the badger and the lemur-puffin thing.
>>147039835The best recommendation is someone midlevel on the normie spectrum telling you about a series that's super fucking autistic. It's what I like to call the tard wrangler formula. Where you need someone niche friendly but with a low tolerance for putting up with social retardation to find those banger series.
>>147040839I had to stop once they made scallops out of the horse's testicles.Maybe that answers the question.

>>147004282A large factor in Homestuck's demise was all the drama from trying to create that goddamn video game.If it werent for the videogame, HS mightve been finished soon enough that its increasingly tumblr-broken creator would still have some original magic left for its ending

>>147041089if not for my health problems, I could have done comics forever.
>>147040677In all seriousness I think Val does a great job of explaining stuff like being cut off from a hive that communicates using pheremones.
>>147041227Does Val's LAM count as a webcomic?
>>147005086Yes, erotic and only for me and my partner. Or maybe I'll think about doing it
>>147042659webcomics are too much work to only be for a couple people
>>147040186I can't figure out how to read this without making an account.
Why are so many webcomics about fetishes
>>147043756you see fetishes everywhereand because of that, and how you treat people as a result, they start doubling down on fetish obsession
>>147039835only 30%? come on Kit'n'Kay fag, you gotta pump those numbers up
>>147043992you're annoying
>>147043747No idea, I just open it up here>https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/pixie-and-brutus/list?title_no=452175and it doesn't stop me at all.I've got uBlock and noscript though, so maybe it's just your adblocker not working or something.
>>147044015ha, you'd think the faggot hellbent on suggesting K'n'K on every fucking webcomic thread for shitposting's sake would be able to take a small jab, but I see you can't
Have you considered multiple anons like bringing up KnK because it's so fucking bizarre? We could post Moon Over June if you like.
>>147044107man someone on discord just added me, friend of a friend, to tell me about that friend, and he had a fuckin MoJ icon and i'm like whaaaat does someone actually like it or is that a sick joke
>>147044107Oh sure, go ahead. Might as well get some more variety, more flavors of diarrhea never hurt no one right?But you'll still be a kiwifag, purposefully bringing up shit even you consider being terrible, to threads you know full well are looking for decent shit to read.It is purposeful shitposting, purposeful lowering of thread quality, borderline spamming.And what for, just so you can post all about webcomics being dead or 30% fetish shit? Groom more people into your "laugh at the lolcow" circlejerks?Save Bad Webcomics Wiki from death by obscurity?Fulfill some obscure, retarded vendetta no one cares about, like the sabrotigerfag a few threads back?What even is your goal, you goddamn autist?
>>146974584Gunnerkrigg Court is pretty cool, it has a strange mash up of sci-fi and fantasy that I find pretty compelling. It's been running since 2005 with regular updates to this day, so it's up to over 3000 pages.It also does something that I've only ever seen before in One Piece, where the author will both set things up in early chapters that can't be properly explained for years, and also take small seemingly insignificant things from early on and reintergrate them into the story in such a way that you can't even tell if he planned it that way from the beginning.
>>147044617man I envy the fuck out of people who can do thati can't even follow plots like that, let alone write themOni x Fox just pulled one of those and Sef had the good sense to REMIND us that character hasn't been seen since 2019, so we could bask in that
>>147044617There's another webcomic that does that quite well, but it's That One, so I obviously can't recommend it in good conscience
>>147044648Well now you've made us all want to know more, ya prick
>>147044681Homestuck
>>147044727oh that is hardly reviled, it's just oversaturated
>>147006694t.corporate stooge
>>147044869did you just unironically use 't.'
>>147030663I've read enough of this now that I have come to agree with you. My issue is no longer the blatant tumblrisms but rather that the author has absolutely no self restraint and throws flashbacks inside of flashbacks like a total asshole inbetween bouts of talky murderfucking, making the plot fucking impossible to follow.That said, the setting is interesting and some of the murderfucking tickles my pickle. Thanks for sharing.
>>147044921oh you know what, now that you say that, that does ring a bellwhen that happens, I always assume I'm the idiot, because I treat every piece of fiction like it's really happening, trusting that well it MUST make sense, because it just happened. if I don't get it, I must not have been paying attention..anyway glad I could show you something weird. Let's face it, that's what art is all about. they're not all gonna hit, but at least you can say you put something out there or watched something that touched you.
OH, oh, Eerily Lovely. that's one I had forgotten all about but holy shit is it good. Hope it comes back again sometime.
>>147043992I'll have you know that Kit'n'Kay is true kino kink shit and as such it does not count to the 30%.
This is as good of a place as any to plug my own webcomic. So here you all go:https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/wish-fulfillment/list?title_no=992494Been running since August of last year, and I still have a LOT to get through. I’ve made a few small posts here and there on /ic and hyw threads. Nothin’ major, Once this first “episode” finishes up I’d love to do post story time post here.
>>147045119This is quite possibly the best place to plug that. HYW has become a sad farce.I'll check this out, I'm already getting great vibes here, and it's interactive? Bonzer.

>>147045617I love Bunnyseries. Shame Coldfusion comments on every chapter though.
>>147034296Fuck off coldfusion
Kilo Ilo came back! It's an old Smackjeeves comic about aliens on Earth.Original series from 2011 to 2017https://www.cassiecartoons.com/kila-ilo-index/New Contiuationhttps://www.kilailonorthernlights.thecomicseries.com/
Vemtura City Drifters is about a women's college basketball team and what happens during their season.https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/ventura-city-drifters-/list?title_no=644014
>>147048805Cute style
>>146995104There's also my first ongoing webcomic, Tom N Artie, which is about a Unicorn and his cartoon buddy working as mercenaries to make end's meet. It's going to get a soft reboot after this current story with a new artstyle and changes to the plot.https://www.tomnartie.com/Pic related is current style.
>>147049248And the upcoming artstyle change that will be in full color.
>>147048805I found the comic to be fairly boring, but the main character fairly fuckable.
>>147049270Impressed you're keeping up with it. Feels like an honest to god passion project.
>>147048614>>147048788Why are you trying to fuck up a perfectly good webcomics thread with retarded dramafaggotry? Nobody gives a shit about whatever beef you have with another anon. Knock it the fuck off.
>>147045119>re-cropping and rearranging pages to fit the dumb webtoon moldfucking ew, always hate to see it. but at least you aren't re-scaling panels (yet), like Weekly Roll doestell me you've got a proper site you post the actual pages at, the way they were intended to be read
>>147049527I hate webtoon pacing so fucking much. Your comic isn't an episode of an anime you don't need to waste 10 panels on a zoom in or conversation. No wonder most webtoons are 3 fucking pages before the artist gives up.
>>147049613Worst part is it's not even some webtoon imposed pre-requisite, but some sort of site "culture" (brainrot, more like)Gumshoe City has perfectly normal pages, just arranged vertically because entire chapters are grouped per updateIn Our Shadow is even more traditional and webcomic-like, posting one perfectly normal page per update so it reads like every other webcomic out thereAnd I don't see anyone going after them and demanding they split it all up into single panels twenty goddamn miles apartWhenever I have a choice between webtoons and some other host, I always choose said other host, even if that means relying on Tapas and hoping they don't finally kill their RSS feeds for good
>>147049613You may want to give the comics currently being made by anons on /ic/ a try. There's a substantial number that are intentionally eschewing the webtoon format. Some of the stories are decent.
>>147049799The format of a Webtoon can be used artfully, if the artist has an eye for the purely digital format and uses that to their advantage
>>147049821I don't know who that is. Stop trying to start shit.
>>147049854That's like saying that isekai manga can be good. I'm sure it's theoretically possible, but I've never seen it happen.
>>147049492Honestly I came close to quitting alot in past 2 years but felt that I would come back to this regardless if I announced that. It's honestly been very tough getting people interested in Tom N Artie compared to my other work as Kaiju Dayz is the main seller for me (which makes sense as it's more normie-friendly). Guess it is a passion project since I pump alot of money into it and don't really get a return nor did I ever expect one, I just wanted to write a fun actiony/comedy comic. The glimpses of the new style has attracted people back as I teamed up with an artist friend of mine for it. He's been having a blast drawing it as I give him alot of freedom and he makes more use of Artie's cartoony nature. The first artist is still on board but she'll only be the colorist going forward.
>>147049879>I don't know who that is.Then why would you care? You'll never be accepted here again, CF
>>147049527I do have a comic fury page, unfortunately I haven’t updated it since october. I’ll probably do a mass upload to comic fury this afternoon if that will help, There just weren’t enough active readers on comic fury to justify daily posting. I really need a program that can schedule and automatically upload my work across multiple sites at once. The tedium of posting to 5+ sites alone was brain melting and time eating, I can only reasonably manage three. As far as the hate for the webtoon format goes. I’ve heard people complain about it before. I don’t think it’s as bad as you all are making it out to be, it has some benefits, vertical spreads can be really cool when done well. And dialog can be given room to breathe. I know my comic has benefitted from it. But to each their own I guess.
>>147050198Oh yeah, The other two sites it’s on is Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/WishFulfillment/s/V8WqZVu11Tand iFunny, I’m not linking it iFunny is objectively dogshit.As to why those two, they were easier to build followings on. Instagram and the website formerly known as Twitter are the equivalent of pissing into the wind. You have to have a dedicated hype squad to get the ball rolling.99% of Reddit comics are terrible so my stuff winds up standing out fairly well. The same goes for iFunny, Meme sites like it have captive audiences and systems that can get your stuff in front of thousands of people, for Free might I add.Honestly I shouldn’t have to explain myself on my site choices, but I’ve been asked plenty of times before so I might as well say something
>>147050413Reddit started working more for advertising when I stopped posting in places like r/comics or r/Webtoons. I began targeting the non-creator subreddits for people posting military or soldiers fighting monsters and that's been doing a way better job of pulling readers. They actually do comment, share and try to get others pulled into it. I do tell people that those comic subreddits should really only be secondary if you're trying to get your stuff out there.
>>147050198Well, you are right that vertical format can work. Comics like Thunderpaw made good use of infinite canvas (in either direction, not just vertical) *as needed*, while paying attention to paneling. Comics like Nature of Nature's Art routinely have have pages that extend vertically, but would otherwise be perfectly normal composition-wise, with though being put into layout. And it's not afraid to go horizontal when the situation calls for it.There is a good handful of webcomics out there that do exploit the idea of an infinite canvas to good effect, that have both a decent sense of dramatic effect and composition, that plan their pages with this sort of freedom in mind ahead of timeAnd maybe I've got the wrong impression here, but >>147049527 just doesn't look like it. It just looks like a nice spread, turned sideways into a neck-pain to conform to some bizarre expectation that if you're on webtoon everything must always be vertical.Still, not the worst instance I've seen of thisFirst off, I must retract my words on Weekly Roll rescaling panels, as I can't find them anymore. Maybe they've fixed it since. Or more likely, I just hallucinated it, confusing it with another grayscale comic that did do that. My bad.But I've recalled a far more egregious example: Oi! Tales of Bardic FuryCompare, the same page as seen on Tapas (picrel) vs as seen on webtoons https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/oi-tales-of-bardic-fury/the-beach-episode-finale/viewer?title_no=303092&episode_no=125Every single panel, cropped out, re-scaled to full page width and mindlessly stacked on top of each other with no rhyme or reason.It hurts to see.
>>147050623An outright disturbing example is The Dragoness Says Sit, a webcomic some anons mentioned about a couple threads back:If you check their patreon for public posts you'll see them posting their comic pages in smewhat traditional format.Visit their actual site though, and you get the same deal as Oi!: lazy, vertically stacked and re-scaled panels, with zero regard for the original layout.I may hate seeing people butchering their comics for webtoon, but I can understanding wanting to fit some perceived mold at least.This though? I simply can't for the life of me understand why anyone would willingly do something like that to themselves on a site they've got full control over.
>>146974584Here's my psychedelic fantasy webcomic Oi! Tales of Bardic Fury. It's a fantasy drama about bards, druids and idols. It's set in Ireland in 360 AD but it's very anachronism so don't go in expecting historic accuracy.https://namicomi.com/en/title/ufQC7cAD/oi-tales-of-bardic-furyI got over 800 pages and 3 volumes completed, and it tells a full story that is oi part 1. The art improves over time.
>>147050822Right now I'm working on a sci fi romantic comedy called Cosmic Crush, about an ancient astronaut conspiracy theorist girl and the alien prince of Pluto.https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/cosmic-crush/list?title_no=937034New updates should be dropping this month.
>>147050860Here's the female MC Penny Perez
>>147046183Still trying to figure out why the writer here is ripping off Pogo.
>>147049799>And I don't see anyone going after them and demanding they split it all up into single panels twenty goddamn miles apartThat's not entirely true. What I've heard, in an interview with a professional comic artist who makes money on Webtoons, is that Webtoons rewards authors for reading time. Those stretched out pages are likely trying to pump those numbers.
>>147051145It's simpler than that: 90% of comics readers on the planet read comics primarily on their phones, and scroll format is the most popular for phone users.
>>147051287> 90% of comics readers on the planet read comics primarily on their phones,Photo galleries on phones swipe from left to right. There's zero reason to only have 1 option for scrolling comics
>>147051287That could be a possibility, but like I said, you don't see people going after these comics asking them to be made mobile friendly, the way you see droves of normies on itch.io asking for this or that game to be ported to mobile. I'd say >>147051145 is the (equally sad and) more likely possibility here, Webtoons setting up a terrible system and authors trying to game it, the same way 20 minutes has become the algorithm approved standard on youtube
>>147051354The text is bigger in scroll comics. Also, side swipe comic sites still exist.
>>147051354>Having more than one optionThis scares the Korean salaryman/salarywoman scrolling while taking a poo.
>>147051444>Some complain reading traditional comics is too hard on mobile>zooming in or panel by panel exists>They still claim that's too muchAre comic readers nowadays more retarded?
>>147051287I'm not retarded, Anon. I know why Webtoons has a scrolling format. What I'm talking about is the vast distances between individual panels you often see on Webtoons. Like I said, I heard this in an interview. With the author of The Shadow Prophet, I believe.
>>147051471>Are comic readers nowadays more retarded?Yes>>147051503You may be on to something
>>146988693>Feast For A KingI... what... the fuck am I reading..?Anyways, while reading that I stumbled upon an advertisement for a comic called Rising Sand, which seems significantly more promising. https://risingsand.glass/comic/rising-sand/
>>147045617Oh man Bunnyseries, I fucking love this comic.>>147048614I don't see you commenting. Be the change you'd like to see.
>>147049495I'm pretty sure he's severely autistic and obsessed. Not sure if Roadie or Otto or uhh the guy who thinks it's okay to draw kids being beheaded but not taking a bath, Omeow was it? but there's a reason we can't have nice things. It doesn't matter how many people are cool, one or two obsessive shitters destroy the whole thing.
>>147051690Rising Sand is cool. But with how detailed the art is, and how long the pages take to make, I fear it's never going to be completed
>>147049527Wait, so this comic existed in a prior form?I wish people would boycott the major hosts for being so terrible. Especially the mobile-focused ones.
>>147050198Automatic updating is another reason I can't imagine just making a site from scratch, unless someone has a program and can guarantee it will never stop working someday and become incompatible.>>147050623vertical is kind of ideal, since comics scroll with the scroll wheel downward. I'm actually surprised the era of 'widescreen good' didn't change that.
>>147050860oh nice. That's a cute premise.>>147051690it's weird, right?
>>146974584Sally forth to Valor Preclusion!http://vpcomic.com/
>Wimp Witchhttps://kirbaroonie.wixsite.com/wimpwitch/homeIt's fantasy romance, author does nsfw sometimes, and they've also started animating their webcomic on newgrounds and youtube
>>147052831the author is a 'they?'
>>147052888Sorry, should have said she. I'm just retarded and use they too much.She's married and just had a kid.
>>147053045it's a really insidious habit to fall into. A ton of people think it's just easier, without realizing why that's being pushed.also yayyyy!! i hate when webcomics end because someone had a baby, but i'm always happy for them reproducing.See to me it feels like a webcomic (if you are making money) is kind of the perfect job to have a baby with. you can just draw and then feed baby and then draw and then pet baby and draw then change diaper then draw more. can't do that as a.. bank teller.
>>147053195>getting this upset over the English languageMeds now
>>147053255kek, get a little older and you'll learn how dangerous it is letting people rewrite language to rewrite reality in the process.https://www.journeyupstreamcomic.com/comicreader.php/?postnum=23Man this one resonates.
>>147053269singular they dates back to 1375 you werido
>>147053350And sodomy is even older but that doesn't excuse you being a faggot.
>>147053350only when used for 'someone' or 'anyone' you lying catamite.
>>147053510wait until they find out all anons are they
>>147053854No, "Whoever the author is" is a they. "Whoever Anon really is" is a they. "The author" is not a they and "That Anon" is not either. It's not about information, it's about grammatical agreement. situations of gender ambiguity is what 'he or she' is for.
>>147054247oh wait i misread, you were makin a jokey-joke-joke.
Any last minute recs before thread dies? Give me something new or weird.
>>147054356Hamsters City http://www.tokyomanga.com/hamsters-city/home.htmlenjoy some adorable ESL
>>147051690Feast for a King actually gets pretty interesting despite its utterly shameless tumblrness. The art improves significantly as you go along. There's quite a lot of faggotry, both colloquial and literal, and at some point you can tell very distinctly that someone was bitching at the author about the lack of negras and fatties which hurts the character designs, but I got pretty hooked by the time I was about a quarter way through.
oh oh oh and another that gets overlooked, Rutabaga Adventure Chefhttp://www.rutabagacomic.com/sadly stopped updating out of fucking nowhere at the peak of its popularity. people were reading it with their kids and junk, there's all these sad comments on the front page.
>>147054510aint that always the way>>147054356http://jessemoynihan.com/ if you want a big ol mindfuck, you can do worse than this
http://romanpenscomics.blogspot.com/ this is good but the guy lost access to his site or whatever so he just updates on youtube now with funny animationshttps://bitsandbytescomic.tumblr.com/post/114751594050/so-here-we-are-bits-bytes-in-english-i-thinkBits and Bytes is also cute. Max does good work.man what ever happened to White Ninja?
>>147054356https://www.sbnation.com/a/17776-football/chapter-1Interactive media comic, must be seen at least once before you die. Check out the website it's hosted on when you finish for added weirdness.
>>147054586What is this, me on Discord?
>>147054586I think this requires a better brain than i've got
solid thread
>>147055712agreed. /co/ still has some remnants of the good days.
>>147048614Imagine how fucking sad a person you have to be to keep little screencaps around for people you don't like.
>>147051690>>147054510I'd also like to add that Mirror a cute.
ah I finished Journey Upstream. Good stuff. and I appreciate the author pointing out that none of this is 1:1 allegory because it obviously works better when it's more vague.
>>147051805Stop samefagging
>>147056418I wish I could call you an idiot, but I know threads where people regularly do that, and we've caught them. Some of them are too dumb to even try not to post exactly 1 minute apart.
