Amber today ... oh boy.
[Webcomic] Webcomic Appreciation Jamboree
- Thread starter Allen who is Quiet
- Start date
JESUS -this got hardcore.
Bye Rape guy!
Damn you, Willis! I knew he was gonna pull away from yesterday's scene.
I know this is the webcomic appreciation thread, but this avoidance going on with Dumbing of Age? I don't appreciate this.
Its at least better than what John Allison does, in randomly switch between two storylines at two different time periods that just disorient the reader and give you a headache.
Why do webcomic writers think the most interesting thing to do with anthropomorphic animals is go to Satan damn High School? ENOUGH IS ENOUGH MR. AND MRS. MARKS!
Oh wow, Joe is getting realistic repercussions to his sexist actions-DID AMBER MURDER THAT GUY OR NOT?!

So this is not a post I really ever wanted to write...
So I think Supervillainous might be getting close to the end. I'm finding it harder and harder to keep going week after week, and I don't want it to just turn into a chore. I love these characters, but the cast keeps getting bigger, and the quality has started to dip. My backgrounds are getting more and more sparse, and I'm taking occasional artistic shortcuts.
With The Future storyline starting to peak, I think I see the potential for a natural end to Supervillainous. It's going to be four years old in a few weeks and hit 400 strips. It's the most ambitious artistic project I've ever undertaken, and I truly never expected to get this far.
I've also never had an audience this big. The SV weekly traffic is around 6,000, and a good number of regulars always leave comments. I want to do this the right way and give it a satisfactory ending. It won't end with The Future storyline - there's still a few more stories to tell, so...it will probably end within a half year. I'll work until I'm sure the time is right.
I've got other comics I still want to do, and those ideas have been leaping to the forefront of my mind. I just can't create them because of my current comic. Many of those ideas are for a fantasy comic in the vein of Oglaf - without the smut. I think it would be nice to just have a comic that doesn't really have a continuity, and just be a series of sorta-themed works that can stand as their own little stories.

A joke so dumb I'm surprised I didn't say it.
Dumbing of Age: I'm sure somebody finds this funny, but I'd love to know how long Willis plans to drag out the suspense.
Oh boy I am...SO GRIPPED by the current story of a random Grocery store customer dating Lesley because she's into her roomate...SO gripped...nothing ELSE I'd want some fucking confirmation on.
I'm gonna stay off this thread for a while, pretty sure any future post I'd make would be complaining about David Willis and John Allison's choice in narrative flow.
I think we're getting there in Dumbing of Age.
I hope.
I hope.
Same.
ALSO-in a fit of curiosity to see if Newshounds was still horrifying-I SEE-...better drawn versions of the old stories...bad sign, jolly bad sign.

I could have told you that after reading the first three pages.
I kept thinking I'd missed some major part of it that didn't suck. But, like Wapsi Square, that part that would actually flesh out the story to make some kind of sense instead of just being some weird bullshit, just isn't there.I could have told you that after reading the first three pages.
WELP-I am hungry for something new and good, especially after stomaching ANOTHER god awful romance drama manhua. Can anyone recommend a good sitcom web-comic?
