Tom Preston has disappeared from Deviant Art. His presence on the internet is felt but not seen.

He is known to take new personas and projects. Indeed, the name "Tom Preston" is a pseudonym.

Is this his newest filth puddle?

Random Battles

It carries much of his stink - the all-female cast, lesbians, ugly same-face art with big white eyes and huge upper lips, the inability to express movement, flat humor, and characters more stock than a retail center's back room.
Their Twitter account dates back to 2011 so... no? Don't be weird.

I don't know what the gently caress this is or why it's been running for a good while
But it is the most unfunny thing I've ever seen. Where are the jokes? What's the point of the character being a 'wolfpupy'? Am I supposed to care about this awful little poo poo of a character???

I'm willing to give Daughter of Lilies a chance; honestly, the post under the comic is more worrying to me than the actual page itself. If there hadn't been a whole conversation about it I probably would have just read past it without a second thought.

does kind of explain the author's childish censoring of the middle finger and swearing though, while having no problem with showing blood and gore. :v:

Something about those screenshots makes me think the author reads a lot of One Piece.

And also it's Colleen Frakes, so you know it's going to be good.

the worst thing about tumblr as a comic host is that clicking on a page doesn't go to the next page, but rather to the image you clicked on.

That's more than the Paranatural thread gets. But maybe that'll change now that hitball is over.

I don't really have a horse in this race but if someone effortposted an OP for a Poppy thread that'd be cool.

maybe paranatural shouldn't have its own thread then. Dunno why we feel the need to make an individual thread for every single webcomic that people like, there's no reason you can't talk about them here. Like yeah of course this thread tends to fixate on a couple of comics at a time, every other comic has been relegated to its own thread!

Surprisingly, making the panels and space between them larger and increasing the amount of scrolling does not, in fact, alleviate the amount of scrolling.

I did try not reading poo poo comics, though, and that seems to have done the trick.

sounds like you got some weak rear end baby fingers if the act of scrolling is such a burden to you

Crocoswine

the example from the sword interval is bad but you're an idiot fucker if you have to cry about and decry this very popular format because your weak rear end twig hands can't handle the act of "scrolling up and down"

I haven't been keeping up with Broodhollow, so maybe it got discussed in that thread and I'm out of the loop, but... I just found out Syfy is doing a show based on Candle Cove, and I hope Kris Straub is making a fat stack of cash from it.

That's gotta be some kind of first, right? If not the first cable TV show based on a webcomic artist's work, because I vaguely remember some cartoon or other for LICD guy, then the first live-action show? And filmed in frickin Winnipeg.

a few entries down from the latest one posted:

More on that in a sec. But first some business. If you’re wondering what will happen to this website, I’m planning to leave the entirety of Demon up for a couple more months. When the collected volumes start to come out from First Second, I’m removing everything but the first chapter. So if you want to read the webcomic one last time, do it before July. After that it’s gone, but only in webcomic form. If you want a permanent way to relive some highlights of Demon such as Jimmy being born or Sweetpea kidnapping a boy band and forcing them to perform at gunpoint, I have exciting news for you. You can now preorder Demon on amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Demon-1-Jason-Shiga/dp/1626724520)!!! I’ve been working on this book for a year and it’s a gorgeous 2-color printing. We set out to try and replicate the aesthetic of old 2 tone manga from the 30’s and it’s succeeded beyond my wildest dreams. As for shigabooks.com, I’m planning to keep the blog section of this site going. Even though there won’t be new pages of Demon, feel free to come back here for news about future projects, behind the scenes trivia about the making of Demon, cartooning advice and when I might be coming to a city near you!

I'm trying to find a comic, that I think was posted in one of these web comic threads.

I've gone through pages, and couldn't find it.

The main character is a buff, red headed lady, with sharp teeth and a long pointed nose, and an unpleasant attitude.

She joins up with a super powered squad, looking to police other super humans.

it is very jarring that the artist decided to change all of the characters' body types so drastically within 5 chapters

it's like they stumbled onto some post about body diversity in characters or whatever and then went ridiculously overboard changing everything. I might pick it back up if things stabilize at some point but right now it's giving me visual whiplash.
