To build on the Sluggy plug...

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

To add to Ben's list-

EarthSong Saga - art is kind of Disney-like, and the story's cool- alternate worlds and all that jazz.

Bob and George - the first sprite comic ever. Also updates every day.

Friendly Hostility - may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I adore it. And the art is lovely. (warning- the main characters are a gay couple. Don't like, don't read, don't flame)

Boy Meets Boy - same author as Friendly Hostility and a sort a prequel. Ended last year sometime I think. (same warning applies- main characters are a gay couple. Don't like, don't read, don't flame)

Rob and Elliot - the author who recently took over Saturdays at Sluggy Freelance. Absolutely hilarious and random. One of my favorites.

Beaver and Steve - about a beaver and a dinosaur thing. Random and pointless, but the style's too nifty not to give it a look.

No Rest For The Wicked - the art is really awesome and sketchy, and the story's fantastic- a rework of all of our favourite Grim's fairy tales.

Jack - Rated M. Rated M. Not safe for school, even if it's not blocked. But it's good and one of my favourites, it's a take on hell and the grim reaper (as furries) and an exploration of life after death for the damned. The art style miffs me a bit, but the story more than makes up for it. Rate M. Rated M.

I'll add links when I get the chance, but a google search should find most of them.

And decapitation's not my style Ben, I prefer defenestration.

Amergin · Peon

I remember Jack. That was possibly one of the strangest comics I ever read... especially in the furry category.

Oh, and another strange one to add:

Nana's Life. This is honestly one of the saddest, most heart-wrenching things I've ever seen. It's definitely rated M... for, well, I suppose child molestation, abuse, and just... stuff.

Something tells me I'd understand Nana's Life better if I'd seen Elfenleid. Or however you spell it.

I liked it though, nifty style.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

Mind-numbing brain much. I usually prefer tooread webcomic i find ENTERTAINING.

By-the-way, I am starting a new area soon for manga and webcomics, plz check it out. (when it's there)

Asdfghjkl · Master Mage

The Nanna's Life is really bad

Its really sick and really desturbing but

"If you cant handdle mature stuff please dont go there"

.....Nana's Life is......OH GOD MAKE IT STOP! MAKE IT STOP!

Seriously though, I have tried to read alot of what is on that list...Most of it is pretty ****** *** ***** ***** lame. Sluggy freelance was pretty good though.

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

Infidel!

... What's not to like about them?

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

.....crappy animation, lame humor, failure to entertain.

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

Which ones? Most of the art in linked ones from Amergin is phenominal, and the ones I posted (as of yet unlinked) are just plain nifty (with possibly the exception of Friendly Hostility and Boy Meets Bot because some people don't like stuff like that).

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

I try not to make it a point to remember things like.....those 'webcomics.' I read the Sluggy, Nana's life, one about FF, and like 3 others.

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

"I have tried to read alot of what is on that list..."

I gues I assumed you were giving an actual opinion based on the "many" you had read.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

DON'T CARE! I didn't have to read much to realize that most of that was not even remotely entertaining.

Asdfghjkl · Master Mage

I just finneshed Nanna's life and i love it

it is great it has a lot of desturbing things in it but the overall story is great

I just loved it

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

Hah! I told you you'd like it!

Neener, neener, neener!

If you like Megatokyo, there's really no reason you shouldn't like some of the others.
You have no taste... but I digress.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

kkkkk, stop digressin... MegaTokyo is GREAT. GREAT animation, GREAT storyline, GREAT HUMOR! Nana's life? It's about a girl who has sexwith her dad!!!!! Honestly, you people disgust me!
If that your idea of entertainment.........

Dear Lord, baaa-aaa-aa-aaaa-aa-aaa-a-ad mental pictures.

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

a) It's not animation, it's art. Animation implies that it is moving. Cartoons are animated, anime is animated. Manga and webcomics are not.

b) Nana's Life is not about a girl who has sex with her dad. Nana's life is about a girl who has known nothing but abuse all her life at the hands of someone who makes her call him Daddy. Don't judge a webcomic simply on the first few strips you read.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

Like i care, it still is indecent (not that that's always a problem to me), but it's like the recent Penny Arcade comics....over an over again to the power of 89.

It's plain obnoxious, and has no value at ALL.

Sluggy Freelance is very clever, however, I bow to it's entertaining abilities.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

I think the point i WANT to make is that *pulls out chainsaw* the pointless violence does NOT come off as funny *crazedly slaughters random people in the mall*.

GOOD webcomics have clever humor, a decent story, and good 'art'.

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

The art is good, I like the style used. And the abuse is used to make a point, it shows the extent of Nana's suffering.

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

The point ALSO lacks entertainment value. It is like a newspaper comic (only POINTLESSLY violent), it is only good for an occasional laugh.

I can't put this into words.......hmmmmmmm. The pint is, generally, these sort of things should be put into a more......**** can't think of right words. It's just that her suffering is a theme, and it's just plin repetition, no progress, unless you want to bring up something else I can easily prove invalid.

I just can't stand it! It lacks so MUCH!

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

Everyone's entitled to his or her own opinion, but don't make broad generalizations based on limited experience. That's all I was really trying to point out.

(Curiosity, how much of Nana's Life did you read?)

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

Hmm....... hard to remember, the sites I found were pretty crappy, and the comics were like all blended together. It was confusing (probably added to the negative experience).

shadow_syndrome · Freeman

Did you read past the violence and abuse?

Babblefish · High Keeper of the Sacred Texts

As far as possible, the comics ended at some point.
Anyway, Old School Penny Arcade is arguably one of the finest webcomics in existence.
