Webcomics Recommendations

-Looks around-

Are...Are you talking to me, AHR?

Yes. That hot mess thing you linked to. It's...REALLY heavy on the clichés, and not in a good way either. It's like Twilight with Bella as a a schizo.

Well, I wouldn't take it too seriously then. Its seems like your generic high school comedy. Only with the little voices in your head shown as animals.

As long as Anna doesn't start to sparkle, I'm okay with it.

This is less of a recommendation and more of a plug but my bro and his girlfriend just launched their awesome webcomic so read that right now.

Well, the art isn't bad, but the fact that the first thing I was greeted with was a chick in her underwear, I am hesitant.

My favorites/webcomics you should definitely check out if you haven't already.

The Meek

Hanna is Not a Boy's Name

The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ and Amal

Winters in Lavelle

Sfeer Theory

Goodbye Chains

Hark, a Vagrant!

Knights Errant

Lackadaisy

I pretty much only read long format comics, with the exception of Hark A Vagrant.

My good sir, you have EXCELLENT taste! I've finished Knights Errant (what little of it there be, glorious 'tis, and am I guessing rightly that this is a boys love thing?) and I'm plunging head first into Winters in Lavelle which is inspiring me with my own comic which has been neglected for so long! And then I shall read Sfeer Theory and Goodbye Chains. Thank you thank you thank you!

Oh also I forgot

La Macchina Bellica

Which I only found last week but it's fucking brilliant and Needs More Love

@Dundee You're welcome! Always glad to pimp out these comics to new people! Yes Knights-Errant will have guy/guy and girl/girl action. Doyler has already said that Kadeen is gay and she's drawn some pretty hot Wilfrid/Oswald stuff ^^

Winters In Lavelle is really brilliant, it always inspires me to work on my comic too haha. The author's a real sweetheart.

... Oh my god, Sfeer is intense. I'm only like 10 pages in and I feel like I've just plunged off a waterfall into an entire world of snowflakes. Wonderful, beautifully drawn snowflakes. SO AWESOME MUST READ MORE. And I'll get into La Macchina Bellica laters.

Yes Sfeer Theory is amazing. Chira-Chira is my favorite artist, it blows my mind how much skill and life her art has.

She's posted a lot of upcoming character designs and stuff at her deviantart which I highly recommend checking out.

I rec Dicebox, if you like spacetraveling lesbians, Bad Machinery if you like the Famous Five on acid, and Tozo if you like mysteries, conspiracies and tintinesque art

Like Cats? Like Lackadaisy?

Would you like them both together?

Drunken Jellicle Gang.

Its good!

Yes, I'm obsessed with it.

If you want a laugh and a binge at a completed webcomic, try The Last Days Of Foxhound. It's had me literally in stitches, and I've fully binged it like 4 times. Also, if I didn't mention them before (been offline for a month, my memory's kinda fuzzy), Bibliography, Jack Cannon, and Hurrocks Fardel.

Say, I haven't read Hurrocks Fardel in years! I wonder how it's coming along.

...

Holy fudge, I forgot how much this comic had an impact on my art style. o__O I remember trying use that thin angular style of hair, and how much the artist was aware of weight and volume of bodies.

Heheh, old fanart...◊

Okay, I could use a rec.

I've been reading things like Gunnerkrigg Court and Girl Genius- things with really well-done fantasy elements, myth arcs, tightly crafted plots and such.

I'm very into fantasy, too, but I can go for soft sci-fi. Any type of fantasy is fine.

Or, if that's out, something along the lines of Goblins or Order of the Stick.

Well, for well-plotted fantasy, I think you might like Slightly Damned. Angels, demons, faeries, and...furry squirrel thingies. (Yes, I just plugged this one for the second time in this thread. )

If you are looking for something Order Of The Stick-ish, maybe try Rusty and Co.. Classic D&D monsters seek to become adventurers. Hilarity Ensues.

I'd recommend Charby the Vampirate for tight fantasy plots, but I see it through a VERY heavy Nostalgia Filter. It might not be as good as I remember it being, but you might still get a good kick out of it. It's also got one of the best examples of Art Evolution I've ever come across.

Errant Story is just finishing up, and while I no longer read it, I liked what I read.

Unsounded has just started. It is gorgeous and the dynamic between the core duo is quite unusual; a cultured sorcerer has been blackmailed into escorting a thief's bratty and uncouth little daughter.

I'd recommend Digger, Cygan, if you haven't already read it.

panthera

Girls with Slingshots!

A cute, funny comic with really interesting characters, a talking Irish cactus, a Doom Kitty, and a crossover with Something Positive! The story lines sometimes have surreal elements, but that just adds to the fun. And it's a young comic - it's only 7 - so there isn't a huge archive to binge! Have fun!

Oh yes, I remember that comic. Good times, but I got tired after a year or so of following it.

Errant Story and Rusty and Co all look good.

I may take a look at Digger after I finish them.

Free Mars

A weekly webcomic about a band in a futuristic, Cyberpunk city joining a revolution.

Just a heads-up: Digger has finished now.
