Boba Pearl posted:What goes in a good archive? I can renovate my site with something better, I was going to add a drop down for prologue, and then Act 1, but other than that, what's good to put in there? Yeah, what catcrimes said, chapter markers are probably the least effort, most improvement option. Obviously fully transcribed and searchable with character tags is the gold standard, but that's a lot more work. Consider Swords, a webcomic that does this quite well: https://swordscomic.com/comic/DCCXVI/ It's even got location tags, that's dedication. I bet the author is beginning to regret the Roman numbering system, though. Anyway, it's easier than I thought to prepare a comics post on my laptop and I've got some time this morning, so: Emzedoh posted:Wakako-Zake 6th Night: Seared Mackerel Wakako-Zake 7th Night: Zaru-doufu (Basket tofu)     Tofu is an unfairly maligned foodstuff, I've often thought. Emzedoh posted:
Mysteriously, instead of being divided into 4 chapters and a bonus like all the other volumes, volume 3 has 3 full length chapters and four bonus chapters, three of which are much longer than usual. I guess the author had gotten tired with all the plot advancement lately and needed some slice of life nonsense to recharge. Anyway, I had prepared the first bonus, 12.5, but forgot to upload it. Rather than download it again, I figured it would be more efficient to jump ahead to the next bonus chapter: Shinozaki's Daily Maintenance chapter 12.6: The Cat Incident         A bit longer than usual, but I had to get page 8 in there.

fritz posted:Sweetrock Man, at this point I’ve seen so many variations on this type of comic, where there’s a big monster but oh actually she’s very nice and also maybe a lesbian, that I’ve just grown bored of it. It was novel once, but it isn’t any more. Van von Hunter

I have a guy on fiverr I pay to transcribe my comics, but I normally do them all in big batches, then when I refactor my website I lose the originals.

One notable success in long webcomics, and also an example of something that absolutely shouldn't be good but is, is Dr McNinja. That just kept on getting better over time, and then wrapped up with a satisfying finale. L.A.I.D.A.D.

I love forever comics, and short comics, and those inbetween. I work on all of them and I love variety. There's nothing like the sense of accomplishment from finishing a comic, though with super long webcomics it feels so empty to come to the end of a decade-long stint, event if youre moving on to other things

I just remembered, the author did actually lay out where they were planning to go with some of the plot threads they'd been dutifully foreshadowing: https://twitter.com/HgMorbi/status/1205246100942118912 More in thread. There might be more beyond that, but since it's on Twitter finding it is really hard!

Captain Hygiene posted:Is there any background info to Tall Penguin? I've gotten some laughs out of its general weirdness, but I haven't figured out whether there's anything going on more than that. It's one of those "artist posts this to their various social media accounts every once in a while" comics. Said artist being Adam Muto of Adventure Time fame (was involved in the show's early development, storyboarded on the first few seasons, served as a director during season 4 and early to mid season 5, then took over as showrunner when Pen Ward stepped away from the show)

Chainclaw posted:I don't get the clown angle to Clown Corps. It feels like a weird stand-in for super heroes, but not super well done. It doesn't do a lot with them being clowns, the comic feels like it would barely change if none of them were wearing clown makeup.

When I started drawing this it was just gonna be a dumb throwaway doodle, but then I got more ideas and it ended up being a comic instead of just a pic hope yall think it's half as funny as i do cuz i, embarassingly enough, am pretty proud of it. unnamed original magical girl do not steal's design- overall kind of a goth Ursula. The dress itself invokes octopus arms, and while she's very pale she's not base white. I wanted that theme for a character to reflect both death (skulls and guts/goth) and the sea (FISH guts/color palette) as a reason why she would thematically be interested in the plot point. made myself laugh with the fake tag line for the ConAir DVD "Crime Flies". the thing saying Me Hungry! is a Furby. i guess some younger people might not know what that is. or maybe they're still popular i havent watched kid's TV much in the past 25 years. pretty satisfied with the recreation of HP's hair. Undine's was too blobby and free form so I just did whatever. bottom panel was originally gonna be a jab about how they often do that dumb anime face all the time but it ended up being closer to looking like new Nancy and now I like it no background cuz im lazy anyway i had a lot of fun drawing this and the good feelings will probably carry over to me liking the comic itself more too. unless it does some really dumb stuff to make me not like it.

Having to make casual conversation with an devil and an angel, I don't envy Allison.Samovar posted:Sinfest is a terrifying story of a person succumbing to psychopathic brain worms. Honestly if you know what to look for you can see it from the start. A lot makes sense when you realise the author is at least a decade older than you assume he should be, and a Male Feminist with capital letters.
