Haifisch posted:Already posted in the old thread, posting again here with synposes: The general impression when reading Newspaper Spider-man is as follow: One Day: It's spider-man? One Week: Huh, things aren't moving very quickly. When is Spider-man going to do something? One Month: Wow, Peter just spent the whole month getting dunked on. Does the author even know who spider-man is? One Year: This author understand spider-man at a deeper level than I ever will. New readers might wonder about that Stan Lee credit on Newspaper Spider-Man. The strip started in 1977 being fully written by Stan Lee, and in the 90s started being co-written with Marvel veteran Roy Thomas (scuttlebutt has it that he did most of the plotting and Stan Leed did most of the dialog). Stan Lee was still actively cowriting the strip until a couple years ago, after which it shifted over to being written entirely by Thomas, though Lee remained interested in NSM to the end. Similarly, Larry Lieber was doing the weekday art for the strip until September 2018's strip, when it shifted over entirely to Alex Saviuk (who had previously been doing weekends).

Technically I think you could get away with having just a door leading outside, with no connection to the rest of the house (ala that lovely roommate storytime).

Tiggum posted:I think she's specifically told her staff to kill rabbits because she hates Kevin, but if she kills him (or tells anyone to directly) then that would be murder because she knows him. Since apparently we are supposed to care about the market price of rabbit meat, a less stupid plot would be for Evil Company stop hunting rabbits, and start buying a lot of rabbit meat. That way the price goes up and all the other Evil Corporations start gunning for Our Heroes for monetary reasons. Like not only is holbrook writing a fetishy nightmare world but he is doing a halfassed job of it.

In every previous panel, Tauhid actually drew the entire face before concealing it. Until now, though, his attempts to make a face older than Jamal's instantly turned into the Crypt-Keeper.

Transmodiar posted:See all of the above comments that prove you wrong Yeah, I get it, you're trying to rules lawyer and say a comic that was published in The Toronto Star (the biggest newspaper in Canada) is a 'webcomic', and a comic that has only been published on the web isn't. That gocomics is allowed in the thread doesn't change the fact that comics published exclusively online are webcomics. I don't think people want to go ultra-purist and kick every comic that isn't exclusively newspaper out of the thread, but if they do I'll respect that decision.

Well, since someone asked me to post an intro: About The Princess Planet The Princess Planet is a world where every girl is a princess and fairy tales mix with space operas. Princess Christi ditches her lavish lifestyle for awesome adventures with her reluctant Snowman companion. She also finds time to hang out with her princess friends and dish about boys or one up each other’s fantastic pets. In contrast to his daughter’s adventures, the King is stuck in his throne room dealing with annoying or stupid people, often suggesting new ideas for his flag (which is currently a pile of grass eating a sandwich). The strip features an ensemble of other characters who pop in and out from week to week. The author, Brian McLachlan, is a Toronto native who's been doing writing, art, and cartooning through the newspaper industry for over a decade. He's worked on a variety of other comic projects besides the Princess Planet, including a regular strip in Tribe, the graphic novel No Dead Time, and even some stuff for Nickelodeon and The New Yorker. On the webcomics side, he's recently worked with Ryan North on Machine of Death and To Be Or Not to Be. I actually found this comic through North's old Truth and Beauty Bombs forums. The princess started as a webcomic, but was picked up for print format fairly early on, by a few places (including the Toronto Star). There was a bit of a format change shortly before this happened, as McLachlan started doing weekly strips as well, and moved from 2x3 to 3x2 sundays. I'm going to skip forward a bit to roughly when it got picked up by papers. TPP sometimes does theme weeks, so we'll start with some arctic goofs.

I assume everyone from Crock is in? Already on-model and on-plot for postatomic mutants Mr Hefty from Nobody Loves a Fat Man  Guy Gilchrist (from Too Many Cooks)  Elf Dakin (Out Our Way)  and it's more of structure, but the tiny hut that the Old Night Crossing Watchman is in (Out Our Way)  If you want a really deep cut, JR Williams, author of Out Our Way, had a horse named Lizard
