I can understand not wanting to be remembered as "fort thunder lite" but monster killers was really funny and I'll miss it.

Zodar posted:It was a formative work, for me, and I reread it about once a year for the last few years. It helped me get over a lot of my hangups about perfectionism in my art, and to just make poo poo instead of endlessly honing and perfecting projects I would never finish. I think the best way to fill the space it left is not to scrounge for pieces of it, but to create something new Agreedo

wiegieman posted:Because it's really edgy and trendy to hate a popular webcomic that's mostly popular because it updates a lot, when people should really just chill the gently caress out and read what they actually like. Do you chalk up every instance of ambient negativity to it being trendy?

NorgLyle posted:That is, in effect, the full Megatokyo experience. Part of the deal was that when it started the full manga force and anime wave hadn't crashed over the shores of America; Barmes and Noble at the time didn't have a gigantic manga wall and people were still seriously fan subbing shows from Japan. Megatokyo gave the experience of reading a "real" manga to starving pre-otaku and has capitalized on that for years. I always assumed it was that specific brand of alienated early 2000's weeb thing. Is it a creepy and stupid in an Elfen Lied way or creepy and stupid in a Chobits way? A Gnarlacious Bro fucked around with this message at 23:12 on Nov 17, 2015 |

Speaking of manga knockoffs , Monster Pulse is probably one of the best on the net right now. A lot of the time I like it more than it's influences.

Sorry for turning this thread into the Megatokyo memorial but it's super interesting to me because I knew many people in the 2000-2007 period who were SO into it. It's like a time capsule of a certain American otaku identity. Like, even the creator drama.

JDR rules and I really wish there were more webcomics out there by people with world views as strange as hers. It almost reminds me of Kazuo Umezu's work. Things vacillate back and forth from cute to grotesque and horrific so frequently it takes on a really queasy psychotic tone.

My favorite part of JDR art is how stuff is drawn kind of isometrically, but with enough errors in perspective to make you dizzy.

8-Bit Scholar posted:I still don't like them. For one, it ruins any chance of surprising anybody with a sudden twist in the narrative, depending on what you're attempting to do (content warnings are generally vague enough for this to be a non-issue, but trigger warnings tend to be about really specific things). For another, it's patronizing to the audience, as I said. It's like bowling with bumpers on, smoothing out the sharp edges of a table, that sort of thing. If you are not mature enough to handle adult content in a work of fiction, that's your trouble. I feel like giving kids an excuse to "opt-out" of reading stories based solely upon what content may appear within that story, it's sort of...devaluing literature and storytelling over the reader's individual feelings. How do you challenge your audience if you pull your punches? If somebody is really upset by depictions of racial injustice, should they be exempt from reading To Kill a Mockingbird? Do we need to tell people before a staging of Oedipus that this story contains self-mutilation, thus kicking the legs out of the shocking ending? What a moron

Pick posted:If the thousands of pages of other comics aren't to your liking, I suggest jumping straight to Afterdead just for the pleasure of a world you could have had the tools to understand but skipped, so you're all like "Wait, why do camels become robots in Hell?" and it's like, hey, you're the one who didn't come to class. Haha that kind of confusion is part of the draw for me for sure. I was just at the new Detroit comic shop though and bought the first volume of The Desert Peach though, so I guess I've chosen another entry point into the weirdness.

blastron posted:Did the artist formerly known as John Campbell ever say what they want people to call them, either in terms of pronoun or actual name? (other than, presumably, "a piece of trash") It feels kind of weird to be talking about a trans(?)person by their old name and a gender-neutral pronoun. Female
