GtH's art is so poor that I often have trouble telling where a character's head is.

So anyone else floored by the SSSS artist teaching herself how to code in C# all by her lonesome on top of updating her full-color webcomic 4 times a week in order to make her own video-game I mean jesus christ what did she trade Satan for that kind of stamina?

Forget stamina, she must have wrists of tungsten to be able to draw that much at that level of detail.

I'm 800 pages into Dr McNinja. Still not halfway through. :eng99: It's good, but King Radical feels kind of forced; they even acknowledge in the comic that McNinja had no good reason to keep going after him again and again, but rather than fix that they just keep bringing him back until he's had enough screen time to justify him being a regular.

That's probably the biggest criticism of the comic. Radical basically pulls a Joker in that he twists every arc to be about him.

Yeah, she decided to work on Lackadaisy full-time as of last year(?). Guess it hasn't affected her productivity much.

Sundberg said a little while ago that SSSS' laid-back tone takes a sharp downward turn.

He's been at drawing Alice Grove for about two years now and I'm not really seeing much growth.

JJ makes bank off his bad comics but it really seems like the guy's got no potential to improve on.

Didn't that thread end up exploding because people got really mad the main character got a love interest? Or something like that?

I'll read KSBD someday I swear.

You might be thinking about Strong Female Protagonist, which hit its "oh gently caress this" threshold and entered full mock-thread territory a while ago.

Death threats will hopefully be small no matter what happens but readership's likely to fall off a cliff. Poppy's main appeal is in its art, not its writing.

After over a year of oddly happy-go-lucky post-apocalyptic puttering around, Stand Still Stay Silent is taking a sharp and immediate detour into Sadness Town.

The gang is going to disintegrate fast with their interpreter dead.

As depressing as the update is, Tuuri's animal form is adorable

I also wonder who's going to be more wracked with guilt. Sigrun over letting the troll get inside the tank in the first place due to her neglected injury or Lalli once he realizes he might have motivated her to do it by saying that her soul wouldn't be able to pass on once she had turned.

Sigrun is pretty sanguine about people getting killed on the field. Lalli's going to be a wreck, if only because Tuuri was the only person on the team that he could remotely tolerate. He's already blaming himself for her injury, because it was his initial scouting error all those pages ago that let the trolls ambush them in the first place.

It's the Swan of Tuonela, basically Sundberg's version of the Grim Reaper.

If Kit thinks she's going to be able to pull some master-ninja Arya-Stark advantage-in-the-darkness bullshit I hope she's worked out a solution for her "squeaky footsteps" problem.

I like how Kit is so much less mature than Poppy, even though she has a lot of years on her. It makes sense and is conveyed well. Crazy fox lady just took "I feel I can trust you with my child" as a negative.

She's also presently half-mad from stress and sleep deprivation, and already had a couple screws loose as a result of her Lucky Star alienating her from everyone except the untouchables of her society.

I dunno, I'm not too fond of the direction the comic has gone in, tonally. It drew me in with Jojos. Everything since the (visually confusing) dragon fight has been mostly dirge and politicking with some great visual gags thrown in.
