You can't say you dislike something without tellig us why! >:3 Well, ok, you don't have to say, but those are two of my favorites, so I'm generally curious to hear your reasons why you don't like them.

Re: What webcomics are you reading?

I read most of the ones already mentioned.

Blade Bunny - The adventures of a ditzy rabbit-themed ninja girl. Pretty awesome art. http://www.bladebunny.com/

My Life At War - A unit of mercenaries on a world where money and corporate sponsorship is everything, and things like "duty" and "honor" are foreign concepts to most. Pretty interesting mecha designs. Warning: a lot of crude humor, swearing, and occasional drug use (these are soldiers in a war zone, after all). http://www.mylifeatwar.com/

Mystic Revolution - Adventure and political intrigue inside an MMO. http://mysticrevolution.keenspot.com/

Far Out There - Described as "The webcomic where things happen... IN SPACE!!!" http://faroutthere.smackjeeves.com/

Today Nothing Happened - An awesome (and recently finished) journal comic about the author's everyday life. http://www.shazzbaa.com/

Runewriters - A fantasy comic by the author of Today Nothing Happened, starring Severian, a shapeshifter, and his friend Tareth, a deaf girl, who are on the run from the abberant hunters after Sev miscast a spell while fighting one. Recently started, so there isn't a terrible lot to catch up on. http://runewriters.com/

Modest Medusa - Jake comes home to find an adorable medusa hiding in his closet. Shenanigans and chocodiles ensue. (Warning: a little bit of swearing) http://www.modestmedusa.com/

Touhou Nekokayou - A Touhou series created in Create.swf. The comic itself is currently on hiatus while a Homestuck-style series is is taking place. http://dizzy.pestermom.com/?p=thcomic

Failcraft - A cool comic about Minecraft. Not made in Minecraft. http://failcraft.smackjeeves.com/comics/

CCC - An awesome comic that defies explanation. Now available in English! There are also awesome flash animations that expand a bit on the comic world. http://vinnieveritas.com/ccc-english/

In reply to 7vii7 (msg #19):

Well... Goblins art hurts my eyes. I know it's all drawn, but I just can't get by the fact that it looks ugly to me.

And Homestuck... I have a contrarian personality at times, and after being pestered to read it by friends so much I have developed an irrational dislike of it. Also, the sheer amount of bandwidth involved in catchup, and the sheer amount of catchup. I'd be spoilered before I could move, and said friends have already given me annoying spoilers.

Re: What webcomics are you reading?

Hmm~~~ Fair enough. Personally I think that Goblins is a lot better looking then some of the webcomics out there and the art gets better as it goes along, but I still know the feeling of not being able to read something just because the art is so horrible. I also see where you're going with Homestuck. I like to tell myself that that you shouldn't judge something until you experience it yourself, but I know I've been guilty of that as well. As for the archive binge-iness, personally I view that as a plus, I like long stories, but that's just me. I know some people wouldn't be able to stand it.

I still think both are really good, and you should give them a try, but I respect your opinion for what it is.

Re: What webcomics are you reading?

Ok, many of the comics I read have been mentioned already, EGS, OOTS, Darths and Droids... Here are some that haven't

http://www.crfh.net/
A classic of the early internet era. Currently undergoing a relaunch that allows for new readers to join without having to deal with 13 or so years of continuity. I like it a lot. Very recomendable

http://www.sincomics.com/
I must confess I keep reading this comic out of pure inertia, the most recent arcs feel like they are filler, although the b-side comics seem to be funny enough. I think this one is pretty much on a continuity lockout, but the overlapping storyline is worth it so far.

http://www.mapachecomics.com/
Only recomended if you can understand spanish, the (mis)adventures of a racoon and the comics he writes in his spare time (which is a lot). Full of quirky characters and weird adventures, home of the Grey man (the most beloved and miserable man on earth) and his eternal quest for something greater than life - death.

http://pilli-adventure.com/
The advetures of a girl and her vicious drunken macho womanizing dead ex-boyfriend turned living doll slave, togheter they have lot's of adventures involving mythiical creatures of maya and aztec folkclores and of some other traditions too, including a shy and self-conscious gorgon and a very energetic magical girl

Girl Genius: Prince Valiant was the drawing standard for newspaper comics. Girl Genius is, I think, hard to beat.

Well, it's not so much the long stories as the fact that the important events were spoilered for me. And yeah, there is a lot worse than Goblins out there. Also, my brother recently spoilered Goblins for me anyway. Urgh.

It is a very hard comic to avoid spoilers for, sadly. The fandom is massive, and with big fandom comes a higher number of jerk fans.

Re: What webcomics are you reading?

Some recent additions to my webcomic list:

Love & Capes (http://loveandcapes.com/lnc/) Superhero comic focused on the relationship side of the genre, very much Lois/Superman if superman had ever dated Wonder Woman...and all the typical super hero parodies are in here :)

Dream*Scar (http://dream-scar.net/) A new twist on mythical creatures in modern day society.

Pictures of You (http://picturesofyou.smackjeeves.com/comics/) Love, Life, substance abuse and memoirs. Pretty good 'reality' based comic, but also makes it a touch NSFW.

Generation 17 (http://generation17.petitesymphony.com/) Another in my long list of furry comics with a sci-fi/survivor twist.

Re: What webcomics are you reading?

I have a Question.
For a period of time there used to be a webcomic on topwebcomic.com that was about cat furries in college. One of the cats had a siser that was a ninja and who ambushed her regularly to try to win the honor of being the best. THe last few episodes that I read were about the two of them joining up togeather against a common enemy. Does anybody know what the name of the comic was or where it can be viewed now as I haven't been able to find it for about a year or so?
