O Human Star's flashback/flashforward structure can get a little bit annoying at times but it does allow for some loving phenomenal fakeouts sometimes :allears:

Sadly no, but I think the current scene is worth it if you've set the comic down in the past.

The Devil sounds like smoke and honey. We cannot move. It is too beautiful.


i still like the comic, but i think we've spent more time in flashback then in the 'present' at this point
if this wasn't being published serially, i think an editor would suggest a rethinking of how the story's being structured

A webcomic has returned from the void. A dark day.

Anyone know what's up with Madeline Flores? She created Help Us, Great Warrior!, a webcomic that got picked up as a comic book a few years ago. I only ask because the strip's dormant RSS suddenly updated, and it looks like the tumblr account got deleted and squatted by a spammer. Flores' twitter and instagram accounts have been shuttered and possibly squatted, and I can't really find any presence online for her, which is drat near unheard of for young comic creators.

It is curious and wants to accept all kinds of challenges
She's a storyboard artist on Star Vs now (and had previously boarded on the Dreamworks Netflix Home series and Bee and Puppycat). what's odd is that her tumblr and twitter were active back when her first star episode aired back in july so her online presence disappearing must be very recent

Hey, I was wondering if you guys could help me out. I've got a lot of downtime at work and they don't mind if I read webcomics, but finding good ones I am actually able to read at work is hard. Anything that's :nws: for even a few pages is probably no good. (Some other stuff is just inexplicably blocked, like Kiwi Blitz.) I also don't really enjoy pure gag-a-day stuff so much, which makes things harder.

Currently, I am following JL8, Poppy O'Possum, A Girl and Her Fed, Wilde Life, How to Be a Werewolf and Gaia (though frankly I'm not entirely sure what's going on in Gaia any more). Do you guys have any recommendations I could try?

Agreed, but with the caveat that if you've never read Gunnerkrigg before be aware that the art gets much better as the series goes on. Those early chapters are... interesting. It is fun to watch an artist develop his talent though! Some of the later stuff has some fantastic art.

Paranatural or Vattu? Their pacing is slow (in the case of the latter, more like glacial), but I got hooked on them while binge-reading at work downtimes too, and they are good for a few hours of entertainment. Both are 100% SFW.

I actually do read QC - I just didn't bring it up because having to explain 'I like it because it is cute and light and I am not looking for drama more serious than Will Faye Kiss Bubbles Yet'

I've tried SFP but I don't want to read it at work much because it's too heavy in some spots, I teared up a few times reading it and that is not a good work look.

He was being sarcastic, Bravest is a noted rear end in a top hat.

Anyway, definitely seconding the recommendations for Paranatural, Vattu (As well as the rest of Evan Dahm's Overside comics, Rice Boy and Order of Tales), Cucumber Quest, and Gunnerkrigg. In addition, here's some good comics that people haven't mentioned yet:

Back
The Last Halloween
Scurry
Kill Six Billion Demons
Mare Internum
String Theory
Lackadaisy
Al Rashad


Even though they're :nws: I also want to put a shoutout to The Meek (Nudity) and Bearmageddon (Ultraviolence), both of which are good and you should take the opportunity to look up in your spare time.

Nah, you're just missing some context Mors. SFP goes really downhill after a bit and Lamps is notorious for making a meme out of it.

Gunnerkrigg and Cucumber Quest are my first recommendations. I'll also second Mare Internum.

Oh, and if you don't mind a comic that updates slowly. Then I absolutely adore The Property of Hate

I'm gonna second this. The really early comics are a little rough, but that's probably expected for a web comic that ran for like a decade or so, and it starts getting good pretty quickly.

Trip report: have binged Gunnerkrigg and loved it. I had read the early stuff but fell out of doing so for...some reason??? Anyway I love it. Robot needs to like chill out on being a prophet, tho, it is not good for him.

There's nothing special about me.
I just caught up on Erma after someone posted a page from it that made me decide to check it out earlier. It's a fun little gag webcomic that goes some fun places with its premise of 'Basically imagine if Calvin was the little girl from The Ring movies'. Reminds me kind of PS 238 with a horror theme instead of a superhero theme, I guess is the best way for me to say that? I haven't even looked at PS 238 in ages, so I dunno if that one held up but I feel this is a good little webcomic for what it is.
