i particularly dont like the coloring... not sure what to do there. The rest of it, tho, im happy with


edit....cause i cant do 2 posts in one day >.>:::the comic'll be around me and and my friends...which will of course bring video games in every now and then but it wont be like...say...vgcats...where everythings centered around game jokes

There's nothing wrong with video-game based comics. It's just that they don't tap into the real funny stuff.

There can not be too many webcomics. That's like saying there can be too many normal comics. The problem is, most webcomics suck ass. Serious ass. Like PvP. They just aren't funny.

Pretty much. Any idiot can make a "web-comic". This is why there's too many in my opinion, because there's so many of low quality.

Penny Arcade is pretty terrible nowadays.

The way they go about it is usually just some guy spazzing out and saying dumb crap. Penny Arcade is just really dry. Webcomics just aren't fresh anymore.

The only halfway decent webcomic (White Ninja doesn't count it is wholeway decent) now is probably Dominic Deegan.

I love you.

I like some Orneryboy once in a while aswell, myself... Once in a while you get a gem... Like the 'trivial pursuit' strip.

D Pad comics are funny too. they focus more on the videogame store than the games it self.

They usually don't go about it that way. I've seen them take some pretty entertaining stuff there. Usually not in the way they end, but the way they begin.

First Panel:

"The backup drive smells like burned hair, but that's just the backup. You saved everything locally, right?"
"That made no sense to me."
"You saved each comic twice, right? Correct? Here, and somewhere else."
"That's a really good idea."

*explosion in second panel*

Third Panel:
"Look, I don't jack into your "mainframes," *******! I don't connect to the proxy!
Just FIX the HARD DRIVE!"
"Oh, sure! I'll just take this melted drive, and rub it on my **** until our files grow back!"

I can totally relate to so many of their comics. Like that one.

You can relate to that? Sounds freaky.

I'm a fan of Ctrl-Alt-Del and VGCats myself. I think sometimes you need to maybe be a bit computer and/or gaming minded to get the humour :/
