And Erfworld has lost its artist again. Man, I really like Erfworld, but at this point I think it would be less of an interruption for the writer to just go to art school himself.

majormonotone posted:I finally deleted QC from my bookmarks the other day after reading it for almost eight years. I just couldn't loving take it anymore At least the Sven plot is over, and it wasn't too bad as long as you pretend that Sven commited some kind of actual wrong for this mutual apology to be about.

Ultimately I think the thing that's really unbelievable about Demon is that Jimmy isn't easily trackable by the endless string of random suicides he leaves in his wake.

The thing about King Radical is that he's basically Cthulhu. He is not a moral agent as we understand the idea, and when he rises he seeks to remake the world according to his own occult notions of How Things Should Be. It's just that instead of "fish-people" and "impossible geometries," his aesthetic consists of "things that twelve-year-old boys think are really cool".

fritz posted:Not sure I'm following. "Why did she decide to kill off the entire cast and make the moeblob the only surviving character?" is probably what was meant. And the answer was probably "I guess writing about a girl carrying on as magical girl after her whole team gets unceremoniously one-shotted was the plan all along." ...I have to say, I do feel badly for the team, since I can't exactly say that they did anything wrong, unless random powers like gravity control are a known thing, in which case the fault is probably with the person who decided that five-girl squads with no supervision was the right way to patrol a town.

I like QC but I managed to be offended by the arc that was all about Dora forgiving her brother his wrongs, even though he'd never actually been seen wronging her or mentioned as wronging her in the entire comic.

Marten's super-sweet romance with Claire is a bit pandering, but really trans people are born two drinks under par as far as being pandered to goes, so I'm pretty cool with it.

Erfworld is really good, though. Honestly, Megatokyo is also pretty good; it just updates so rarely it's hard to remember it still exists. It's kind of like Dresden Codak except that its continued existence as a business elicits emotions like "pity" and "confusion" instead of "rage" and "irritation."

Captain Oblivious posted:Not even reading Dominic Deegan as a teenager embarrasses me as much as reading Megatokyo. I have to wonder if he went back to having another job. (Although the really embarrassing bit is the cast page, the nonexistence of which is a "joke", which apparently means it's okay that this important tool for helping people jump into your comic has been a WIP for... ... ...good lord, has it really been since 2007? That is even longer than I thought.)

Renaissance Robot posted:Erfworld was really good, before their artist bailed and they proceeded to start (and not finish) multiple different text-only prequel stories. Last I checked they were still doing this. They started doing updates again, and then the third artist bailed and the writer wound up bringing back the second artist back as penciller and bringing back a fourth artist as inker and colorist, which actually looks pretty good and they've been updating pretty regularly twice a week. They're still swapping back and forth between comic updates and illustrated text updates, and I have no idea how they plan to make that work in book form.

A Wizard of Goatse posted:erfworld's low point is that it's a dramatic narrative built on monkey cheese epic meme references and the same 'haha what if games were real and their rules were physics, wouldn't that be wacky' premise that has already been flogged to death for literally every actual game that exists, and wasn't funny the first time It's really more like "wouldn't that be terrible?"

fritz posted:I think it's reasonable for a character to be depressed and upset when three of her friends have just died. They didn't just die, they were smashed to death in front of her, and she hung out with her bodies for an unknown period of time while fighting a losing battle to keep her blood on the inside. That kind of goes outside the depression zone and into trauma land.

It would be nice if Homestuck all got collected into a nice ZIP file with all the games updated and the videos made over into HTML5 for modern browsers. I don't know how much easier that would make it to read.

Oxxidation posted:I remember when Tracy was posting her first sketches of the series (I was still in high school then, Jesus Christ) and it was still this silly, cartoony little thing about moonshinin' cats with guns and Rocky's antics were straight comedy relief. And it's pretty much a given at this point that some and even most of this lovable cast of oddballs are going to get killed, and it's only a matter of who.

Most people who don't post on SA don't bother to distinguish between the sub-boards that are basically 4chan and the ones that have some standards. This gets really funny when people from sub-boards that have lots of standards get huffy because people associate them with GBS or whatever.

Cat Mattress posted:woah steffi It's something along those lines, yeah. Honestly, given that Gear is a known aggressive crazy person with a gun arm, rushing her at close quarters with a melee weapon is probably the least bad option when she suddenly appears in your garage. Man, Cho is going to be in so much trouble (not that she's really the kind of cop who can deal effectively with Gear either).

nine-gear crow posted:Has anyone actually died in Kiwi Blitz yet? Also yeah, I can see this situation going horribly awry for Steffi very quickly. Gear probably is the one character in the comic who would just straight up kill someone on screen. Plus Jones has kind of been Ramsay Bolton-levels of great at playing people off one another and tooling the good guys in a way that doesn't look like it's changing any time soon. Honestly I feel like Jones is a good example of a villain who's dangerous because she isn't really all that smart and I hope she doesn't degenerate into genuine competence.
