Wizard People, Dear Reader is an unauthorized re-envisioning of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, by Brad Neely.
After spreading rapidly among Neely's friends in Austin, Wizard People made its theatrical debut at the New York Underground Film Festival, to rapturous applause. We think Neely has crafted an as-of-yet-unnamed new art form, one everyone should experience for themselves.

Also, on Minus: I have this one (http://www.kiwisbybeat.com/minus37.html) framed and hanging on my wall. Justifies the entire idea of webcomics, in my opinion.
Plus, I love the Little Nemo vibe.
Actually, I liked that one way better before reading the rest and learning that the little girl is a Q or whatever. It had a nice sense of futile but confident defiance.
Why'd you have to go and liken her to Q.... That's lame.:whut:
Horribleville (http://www.horribleville.com/) is a side-project by the iconic KC Green, where he draws comics about the creative ennui that comes with drawing comics!

I discovered Yet Another Fantasy Gamer Comic (http://yafgc.shipsinker.com/) today.
EDIT: This might be solely because one of my recurring nightmares is an iron-crowned skeleton who speaks to me with authority in a language I don't understand.
I might also have made it up out of the fact that my brother is stalked in dreams by a serial killer with no face who is known as the Brown Man and another friend is constantly haunted by the cold king of nightmares.
Basically i guess what i'm saying here is i'm Alundra.

Lesnick, unlike most webcomic artists, seems seriously interested in improving his own craft. That's a thing to respect.
The comic is more than 50% parody by volume. This is going back to the first story arc, here.uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh did you seriously just notice that sluggy freelance is nothing but shitty parodies
Oh god no. I pretty much stop reading when the Harry Potter parodies up and check back every month to see if it's over.

Oh, incidentally, I have just discovered John Campbell's pictures for sad children.

I don't want "OUTPOURING OF INNER ANGST", I just want her to react to things like robots, talking wolves, ghosts, demons, dragons, possession, assassination, etc like an actual human being might. Not in terribly derivative dialogue designed to make her the coolest cucumber on Earth.
I like that she is not constantly commenting on how strange and/or surprising everything around her is.

Anytime a character or plot must be defended in arguments outside the story, it is an indication - on some level - of a failure on the part of the author.
when you start echoing a specific tenet of guildenstern you really need to take a good long look in the mirror and try to pinpoint the exact moment you became really fat
Actually, I've always felt that if a story can't be comprehended without having to seek outside sources, it does suck.
I'm looking at you, Donnie Darko.
After reading all the website info and glancing over the bits of "The Philosophy of Time Travel", I actually liked the movie less. Once the entire purpose of the plot was revealed, then it just became pointless wankery. The guy was solving a philosophical riddle of his own devising.

Daaaamn. Sluggy Freelance is finally beginning to get ready to be going somewhere. Too bad it's not actually going anywhere yet. Of course, the massive recapping is pretty much necessary, but I do find myself surprised at how interested I am with what's going on in Dr. Schlock's head. Man I hope the strip lives up to that interest.
In other news, if just the first panel of today's chainsawsuit (http://www.chainsawsuit.com/20081217.shtml) isn't enough to make you laugh then you are probably of reptilian descent.
I appreciate Sluggy Freelance more than it probably deserves, but I'll be honest and say that this is the first time that I have actually been interested in it since before a certain plot arc involving rabbits and stick figures in space dragged on and on with no apparent relationship to anything else.

Re: Dresden Kodak:
I loved the unholy shit out of it when each comic was a stand-alone. It was pretty, made me laugh, and hinted at heavy transhumanist seasonings. Then he tried to do the story and I realized that he had no fucking idea what transhumanism is.
the singularity only refers the invention of an AI and nothing else.
the singularity only refers the invention of an AI and nothing else.You're confusing the Kurzweil Misconception with the Dresden Kodak Misconception, which is that the singularity is "LOL ROBOTS LET'S ALL KILL OURSELVES NOW BECAUSE THEY ARE BETTER!" Kurzweil described the singularity as a point where technological advances that directly effect the body reach an apex in which completely natural and completely robotic are more-or-less the same thing. The actual singularity is what Cthulhu said.
What? No it doesn't. It refers specifically to the exponential increase in technological progress, and that if this trend were to continue it would reach a point beyond which no further predictions could be made, as technologies would presumably build upon each other in a run-away fashion. AIs are certainly presumed to be a part of this, but are not required.
In addition to the t-shirts thing, he recently started selling a handbound collection of his Hob strips on his website. It's like 20 pages and costs over $100. The picture of the cover on his site makes it look nice, but it's actually all just covered in blue cloth and looks shitty. Basically Aaron Diaz should die in an oil fire. He sold out of his shitty books, too, because his fans are similarly shitty (see above).Why did you not mention the part where he made $8750 in a single day off of that thing?
Also pretend the author doesn't exist so as not to ruin it. And turn on all the ad blocking software. Everyone wins!
I'll give you that the art looks good and some of the early comics were neat--back when his panel layout created a confusion that aided his weak jokes, the comic was fine.

I already had to have Thad crush my dreams here early in the pet peeves thread. "Literally" used incorrectly before an embellishment is proper use. The exact opposite of the definition of the word is proper use of it.
Naturally. But do you think growing up as a nerd has entitled you to a retarded martyr complex?
I just found out my website from ten years ago still exists.
This includes my Sluggy Freelance fansite. :ohshi~:
A hero is about to deliver a deadly blow to one of Xykon's crew but is stopped by a previously unmentioned trap, take a drink.
I know this is intended to display Xykon as some sort of Batman-like strategy savant but mostly it feels like a DM desperately backpedaling to not have his dangerous NPC killed.
"You can't do that! He... uh... set traps on this room that attack everyone that casts magic! but him! and his lackeys!"
I was reviewing the Erfworld archive, and fun thing: The Arkenpliers actually fall within inches of Wanda's hand at one point. The next panel has her moving her hand towards it, apparently trying to get up.
Then Ansom gets it back and she plays it like nothing of note was happening. That's stone cold.
also the only good parts of Dresden Codak
Earthward Ho!, like Through The Porthole before it, is ending over at Dumm Comics (http://dummcomics.com/). I like this a lot. The creators of the comics can do their thing, and walk away whenever they feel like they've done what they wanted to with their day being filled in by some new talent, and the site gets to maintain consistency by changing them out one at a time.
I do know that there's a cowboy thing called "Jericho" also in the same book in the "failed projects" section, and if that's the third thing they show us, I want it to be known that I fucking called it.
Our aim is essentially to create what could potentially be an alternative soundtrack to the film. The goal is that when we're done, you could watch the film, redubbed with our dialogue (and some other additions to cover the scenes we're skipping), and it would all make sense.

tl;dr Why do people care so much about this? It's free and on the internet.Just because something is free and online doesn't mean that it should be subject to zero criticism. That is why. There is an element of "We could just not pay it any mind and it will probably go away" but given the amount of stupid people on the Internet it is important to occasionally make a distinction between them and yourself. The easiest way to do this is to criticize something online that is free.
Constructive criticism is best aimed at the author, not at an internet message board whose members probably have zero collective interest in the thing.

At some point Rodney decided it was worth charging money for and made a deal to publish it both here and in Japan (dunno if someone is translating it for Glorious Nippon as the comic goes on, but if not it's the only way to read it in Japanese), which means that his work ethic has gone from "that's good enough" to "that's good enough, people will buy it anyway," which is pretty shitty by anyone's standards.
Secondly, it's not that I care about it, it's that I had problems articulating what I wanted to say, got frustrated and decided to go off on whatever was closest... which was that.

Bongobill and TF2 are actually the source of the Sun's fusion reactions.
The dude's not an idiot. I guess sooner or later he had to figure out that clever panel layouts are worthless if they aren't intuitive.
It's only generic because Moebius fucking invented that shit.
Basically, Moebius started writing a new multidimensional sci-fi story. He did three pages and then misplaced them. Unable to find the first three pages, he then started all over again from a totally different angle. When he found the first three pages, he set himself a challenge: write three more pages that linked the first two groups. From that point, he basically made it into a crazy exercise. Each three-page bundle had to unify the previous bundles, while ALSO completely destroying any continuity he had carefully constructed so far in the story. The resulting story is a hell of a mindfuck, but is still entertaining and well worth a look at the very least.
It's Girl Genius, so there's an even chance that that's what he's really saying and an even chance that that's just what it sounds like.
I have this theory that the Foglios just tune into fan theories and then go with whatever is the least believed.
Aaaand we've gone from "He will not die!" to "I've got an idea, let's kill him!" in two strips.
Girl Genius is a rather unique experience in that way.
There being 84 pages released in two years is a little upsetting. Gonna take goddamn forever to get anywhere.
I don't know. It's one of the only webcomics I've ever seen that I'd pay money for a hard copy. I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of webcomics I've ever done that for.

I bought vol. 8 of Girl Genius today at the Hairy T. It's the only way I'm following the story... But that's mostly because I started with vol. 1, waaaaay back before it was web-based.

I need a new set of updates tuesday/thursday/saturday comics.
Halfway through today's Achewood, I suddenly thought "oh my god he's sick of it. this is how it ends." I actually put my hand on the screen to block off the last panel so I couldn't even glimpse the words "THE END" before I read the rest of the strip.
i was wrong tho
Onstad! Beaton! Gurewitch! Gambrell! Those names are all names I would love to meet. Too bad I live in Texas were webcomics go to die.
mostly because scott kurtz eats them
i ain’t saying i know a particular comic series like this
i’m saying i know about one million
How about the every page of Questionable Content?
Didn't the sum of the boards recommend against going to that webcomic?
Oh well, in my books it still rates better than M3.
Alright I'm still inexplicably reading this thing.I can explain that part: It only costs your time, and its better than stopping to think... think about your life... your sad, sad life... your mother wanted you to be a doctor... and you failed completely... and... and... :endit:
So basically this is the best thing

Healy I linked to a mirror IN ANOTHER DIMENSION!
So Achewood has more or less become a premium comic. As far as I can tell, Onstad updates every other week and then spends the rest of his time updating in his premium section. I understand that this is like, his job now, but his comic is only good enough to have a premium section in the first place because of the audience he built from a free comic. I hate it when webcomic authors do this.

I'm also reading Awesome Hospital (http://www.awesomehospital.com/) lately, but I can't really tell you why. I like Chris Sims, he's a funny writer, but this strip has been about constantly trying to make everything wacky funny, to the point where it just sort of goes mundane. But if it's your style a thing, there it is.
I think the arc was supposed to be about the guy training the kids to go to battle with the owl beast or something. The one kid was brave and grabbed the guys flag, but also got his own grabbed. As a result, he died in battle with the owlbeast?

I don't think it was specific "let's train to fight an owlbeast" thing so much as just a training game. The owlbeast segments were the game as filtered through childlike imagination.
Man, for a comic that everyone on the internet seems to hate with a burning passion, there sure are a lot of people talking about and discussing what it all means.
Peanizles is a slamming, fun-filled, family-friendly, almost daily comic strip about a group of sarcastic, pop-culture obsessed kids from the neighborhood.:perfect:
Chuck B
Chuck B struggles with the problem of having the most street cred of any ten year old kid on his block. He’s Lebron James, Jay-Z, and Dave Chappell all rolled together into one bad@$$ package. At least he is in his mind.
Mingus
Mingus is Chuck’s best friend and definite partner in crime and jazz fanatic. His obsession with the great jazz musicians John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, and Dave Brubeck has even led him to wearing a fake soul patch to embrace his beatnik heroes.
Grace
Grace has an on again, off again, not-so-secret crush on Chuck.

Imagine what it might be like if you had empathy for bears with tiny wangs. Or maybe like, the feeling of watching one of those bears get his everywhere but his testicles with footballs.

Can't say I enjoy the directions that either franchise drifted.
Star Trek is like one of those girls with a social conscience, who became a vegetarian for the wrong reasons. She thought it would make her a better person, so now she throws statistics at you in an attempt to show you that she's a smart and good person for going "cruelty-free," but it just makes her look smug and ill-informed.

I'm not sure what you're referring to. Looking at the Casey comic (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/3/18/) side-by-side with an older one (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/3/9/), it looks the same.
Looks like they changed it.I saw the giant text version when it first went up, and later on noticed that they replaced it with the current one.
That Great Old One (http://www.optipess.com/2011/04/01/that-great-old-one/)That is the best!
OH! You updated!
I didn't know you had a PS3.

completely fucking adorable.
This MSPA-like thing has turned out to be completely fucking adorable. Prequel (http://www.mspaforums.com/showthread.php?37468-PREQUEL-%28thread-1%29). A lone Khajiit tries to turn about her fortunes and get a fresh start in Cyrodiil.
Never liked MSPA, and I never played Oblivion, but I sure did just binge on Prequel.

Where a lesser webcomic artist might say “Thank you for being so presumptuous as to think I want you to write my webcomic for me, how about you run along to one of the hundreds of millions of places on the internet where everybody natters on about their amazing porcelain doll animu boys and let me draw my macho guys in peace”, but I’m made of stiffer stuff than that. Here are your bishiiii~*~ comics as requested.
Oh man.
With the possible exception of her boss, every male character in the entire strip appears to be fat white trash.
I like the art before he started adding that ugly photoshop plastic coloring to everything.

Who writes a positive review for a noose? If it worked, the guy who bought it is dead. If the guy's still alive, the noose failed and he would write a negative review. His surviving loved ones sure wouldn't sing the noose's praises.

Speaking of webcomics about Dracula, Kurt Busiek has started writing one (http://draculacomic.com/series/dracula-the-company-of-monsters-page-01.html).
I think he's implying that Dracula having holds on the company is some bit of debunked-slander that's been around for 200-years?
Because I think the comic has done a terrible job of explaining if this is his first resurrection or just the most recent of many.
I have a plan
to save B.I. But for
it to work, we need
the secrets of the
Scholomance.
Oh, and
good news from
Romania. The team's
opened another
chamber.
I'm pretty proud
of it. Spring-loaded
ash stakes. Shielded
crucifixes. A micro-
nozzle array for
holy water. A few
other surprises.
Their head of network
security is attending
a conference near here.
Apparently the guy had to change the hair color of the girl in today's Nedroid comic to blonde after the internet exploded thinking it was either Emmy Cicierega or Kate Beaton.
(I'd link but it's a bitch on a phone.)

Does the doctor in Oglaf have a canon name? Because I just mentally referred to her as "Dr. Acula".
Hasn't miss no-fun shown up many times before the current storyline?

I had to read that like eight times before understanding it was some sort of ultra-sarcastic reply to hypothetical people that are claiming he pretends to be depressed.
I still can't understand -why- he would do it as a public post on kickstarter. Of course, a hallmark of depression is that you do this sort of thing in such a way that it will only piss off the people that genuinely care about you.
Furries, am I right, guys?
While we're at the cutting edge of comedy, let's go check out Maddox and watch a Strongbad email.
I thought furry was anthropomorphized animal, and otherkin was believing you're your favorite video game character / a dragon with more genitals than most entire species.
now everyone thinks they need to BE something to ACT like that thingThe real problem is everyone thinks they declare themselves something that's what they are, regardless of how they act.
Raccoon In Name Only.
Did you guys just become old and conservative enough to actually care about otherkin and other "signs of degradation" in our social fabric?
Somewhere along the line getting whatever you want through hard work became being entitled to everything you want. Even if you clearly do not possess any of the required attributes.That colored my reaction to the rest of the page.
Der-Shing Helmer has really delivered on the promise to resume updates on schedule. Hopefully this keeps up for the rest of the year at least!

Gates McFadden has a tumblr. On this she posts posed pictures of a 1/8 scale (give or take, but the rhyme is good) Dr. Beverly Crusher action figure grappling with post-Star Trek emotional baggage and the challenges of being a tiny action figure.
Oh wow how did I ever miss this one (http://www.harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=347)
[12:14] <Aesir> Buckley's been getting more and more desperate lately
[12:15] <Aesir> he had a bunch of terrible sponsored comics as well
[12:16] <Aesir> my pet theory is that most of the people reading CAD and giving him ad revenue and such were from the mock thread
[12:16] <Aesir> and when that got closed, over half of his readership vanished into the aether
[12:18] <ScootWork> even the PA webcomics thread doesn't post cad, and they'll post jerkcity
[12:18] <Aesir> exactly
[12:19] <Aesir> hell, a few months ago there was that thing with Buckley's dog, where he needed a super expensive operation or something
[12:19] <Aesir> and he was really pushing people to buy prints of old comics
[12:19] <Aesir> needless to say, everyone in the mock thread tried to buy Loss
[12:20] <Aesir> and all of the requests were wordlessly canceled and refunded
[12:20] <ScootWork> did he Loss his dog
[12:21] <Aesir> it was a toy dog with a collapsed trachea
[12:21] <Aesir> you're supposed to walk them with harnesses instead of leashes to prevent that
[12:21] <Aesir> needless to say, every photo of Buckley with his dog showed him walking the dog with a leash
[12:22] <Aesir> so, yeah, he may have Loss'd his dog
[12:22] <Aesir> anyway point being, a few months ago he wouldn't even sell Loss prints to save the life of his dog
[12:24] <Aesir> so for him to backpedal this heavily, he must be having some Problems
see this is what happens when you give money to artists
