ITT we discuss webcomics from days past, dead or otherwise.
Holy fuck that art didn't age well
>>82803235
It's still going too, I check in now and then to see if it's dead but it's not. Miho's been having a conversation in a hospital for like 3 years now and just started fighting the leet-ninja.
I remember Applegeeks dying off quickly, once the author/artist realized there was really no point or story they were trying to do.Does anybody read Erin Dies Alone? Don't give a shit about their other comic but depressed shut-in Erin does things for me
>>82803267
It really wasn't that good from the get-go. It got a pass at first because most webcomics start out bad, but Megatokyo actually got worse.
Speaking of which, remember when VG Cats was both popular and relevant? Scott really screwed up on that one, if he updated more he'd probably still be fairly big.
Does anyone else remember Dominic Deegan?

Don't know what ever happened to the people that made it they just poofed, art was pretty bad but it was acceptably funny and showed improvement as it went on.
I.Rev was definitely their best one in my opinion though.RIP Best Lich
>>82803267
People had way lower standards for web-published stuff back in the day.
>this will never be finished
>this will never even be continued
Fuck this gay earth.
Mines Bigger. Anyone remember this?
>>82805356
Lots of people remember Ryoko from Tenchi Muyo
So what happened with Dominic Deegan anyway?
Besides power levels and orc rape-for-her-own-good?
Anywho, I remember RPGworld... but I feel like there was another in a similar vein that had about 1000 comics before the story ended
Or maybe RPGworld was the one with an actual end, I can't remember
>>82805578
>So what happened with Dominic Deegan anyway?
It ended
I still have some buttons of Tequila, Stacc, and that basketball
>>82805578
The finale revolved around the King, who had never been explored before and was democratically elected, trying to hijack the source of all magic so he could keep his kingdom magical. There was a lot of talking and then the king just kind of died. Then Deegan told Doormat he loved her and the series ended.

Did Goblins ever come back? Last I remember there was some huge thing with the author and he had some kind of breakdown or something
I was reading that at the same time as Ansem Retort.
Zexion is still the best character.
When I was an edgy teen, I used to read an edgy semi-furry webcomic called Inhuman. I occasionally check back to see if it's still running. It is. It's one of the oldest webcomics I know that's still running, and it's one I never, ever heard anyone else talk about.
Am I the only one who has ever read it?
Looking for Mega Man Legends pics->Bob and George comics->Bob and George recommend comics page->more webcomics->webcomic forums->greater internet community overall->stuck here forever.
And all because I wanted some cool pics of Mega Man Legends. If only I could warn myself all those years ago in high school.
>>82806689
Bob and George was a gateway webcomic of the worst kind
9th Elsewhere. Don't bother looking it up; it was deleted from the internet a long time ago. I just like the casual exploratory mindscape concepts, and it seemed like it was going somewhere with that.
>>82803596
>Does anyone else remember Dominic Deegan?
I do. I felt that it didn't have much of a plot to begin with and went downhill from there.
"I have Knight Vision" was the only memorable part of that comic.
Can someone post the chart of recommended webcomics?
>>82804604
Did they ever get their books?
>>82805382
Funny.
>>82806544
I've read that once. I don't remember much, except it was edgy as fuck.
This comic's untimely demise still pains me. The author dumped it right in the middle of a conversation between characters, and then ran off to do a lousy jokey comic strip where there's these monsters, see, and they work in a dungeon, like it's an office or something, lel! Like Dilbert but with goblins!
It's sometimes a decent chuckle, but as far as depth it's just about paper thin.
It just sucks that we get that instead of more dark Lovecraftian fantasy.
>>82807310
>I don't remember much, except it was edgy as fuck.
I remember that and the bat lady. Some alien designs were pretty good, but the bat lady looked the coolest.
If not dead, then on poor life support.
Anyone remember pawn?
>>82805578
Oh I remember RPGworld. I remember really enjoying it and feeling bad that it just kinda stopped. Never got a proper ending.
Blip was one I liked.
Sage Leaves just kinda vanished
>>82808063
It's always been extremely slow though
>>82808063
The April Fools comic should have been the end. It was perfect.
The Lounge was the first comic I got way to into, shipping wise. In retrospect it's embarrassing, but thinking about that comic still hurts.
it's still going
>>82803267
Fred can draw, just cant do people.
![20151227[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/TdjySK0.jpg "20151227[1].jpg")
Has a tournament arc. Big reveal when the game's creator saved all the deleted characters for a secret mission to save the game. Start things to remove the big bad that has hijacked the virtual world of the game. Then she just stops making the comic almost a year ago.
![issue576[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/d6u6No1.jpg "issue576[1].jpg")
>>82809088
and then we have Applegeeks.
Which has just been dead for years, and I don't know why he didn't finish.
I like this spoopy.
>>82809088
Zone-tan?
I remember this one webcomic from years ago. It was about a divorced mad scientist, with a lobster claw for a hand, dealing with life. And she had a blonde mechanic for an assistant, and her husband was a superhero and I think she made a giant robot at someone. Does anyone remember it at all or was just a fever dream of mine?
>>82809137
Eve was a qt robot girl when those were still a semi-novel concept, but I think they figured out quick that that's all they had going.
>>82809281
I remember that comic. It's the only webcomic author Charles Stross reads, apparently. But Stross is a cunt, and I thought the comic was too edgy. The blond mechanic had an annoying comic-Russian accent, and was mostly there to provide some tits.
But yeah, that was a real comic. I recall something about her breaking into a floating city with mythological beings on it. It really got up its own ass about having a villain MC.
>>82803235
>>82803374
He's actually been updating on a semi-consistent weekly basis for what, a year now? That's practically breakneck compared to the 1-2 quarterly comics he did for like half a decade. Still, the story is completely incomprehensible to anyone but Fred. He needs to sit down, hash out some fucking Bibles and then hire people to actually finish this shit. It's been damn near 20 years and they've been 'stuck in Tokyo' for what, two weeks? A month?
>>82806689
>sprite comics
Muh dick.
In middle school the only thing I read was sprite comics.
I can't believe DrShnaps has been dead for four years. I used to have an archive of all their comics but it got lost in an HDD wipe. And Google doesn't have anything leftover.
>>82809410
Do you recall the name by any chance? Because I kinda want to reread it, even though I remember dropping it because of how the MC was portrayed
>>82808932
Twokinds is still alive?!
>>82809431
I still don't get what the hell is supposed to be happening in that comic, something about Piro and Miho having been RPers or gamed together or some shit, but she's irl sick? This seems like a story that could have been told in 20 pages by someone who knew what they were doing.

>>82809137

>exterminatus now
Hadn't read it in years, checked and it's dead nearly a year now. I think whoever worked on it may have been wrapped up in the psyguy scandal...
>>82809728
Tried reading it one time. People said it was good, and the recent art didn't look bad.
I was not prepared for those early pages. I respect the artist, though. That guy taught himself to draw by doing that comic. I can't say anything bad about that. But I never did read it.

>>82809902
It's interesting to me because it starts out like badly written, poorly drawn cliche tripe, but as the quality improves the artist sticks with it and makes it work rather than retconning or ignoring the early stuff.
Plus, xeno waifus like Naveed and Kasey the Stickle.

Dom's parents flew in to fight the king using previously untapped magics and the sword of centuries, while Dominic went on an acid trip to fight the tentacle monster in another dimension.

They had search engines back in the 90s. I remember telling my high school librarian that google was gonna take over, and she should add it to her list of online resources next to askjeeves and yahoo. If you read Ghastly, you knew the word hentai. You had no excuse.
I would share the madness of "The Best of What's Left" and "The Xcentrics" but those shit comics vanished entirely off the internet.

Diagnosed and 'flexible' in his own words, respectively. He was clearly never quite well. His breakdown was before tumblr existed though, so he basically gets to tell all the fags these days to fuck off as he pleases.
>>82809548
It appears to finally be taking shape as "Anime is real" as in every single kind of anime cliche/trope exists in Japan but everyone tries to hide it badly. Largo gets it because he's too stupid/insane to care, while everyone else tries to keep Piro and Kimiko in the fucking dark about it, when just telling them would have let the plot resolve almost immediately. That's the point, but Gallagher also believes everyone cares about all the intricate little worlds he's spawned out of that environment and wants to spend all his time talking about it than just getting the fuck on with the story. Jesus Christ, he's still trying to make a VN and acts as if he's the first western creator to entertain the idea even though we live in a time where everyone and their dog can churn out a VN/RPG in a week, and he's still already almost 3 years late delivering it. KS was conceptualized, rejiggerd like a million fucking times, created and released whole in the time it took him to even sack up enough to commit to actually making one.
I hope that peaceful Crack lasts for a while, the poor bear deserves it. I mean, jesus christ, that was one hell of a backstory, no wonder he is so paranoid of everything.
Also, for those that are fans of this, can you post the vote incentives? I lost all the ones I had, especially the DOTA ones she made of each bear.
>>82810600
He was also completely honest in his breakdown and coming out, and made sure his family was taken care of before he let himself completely off the chain. Ghastly's fucking nuts but he's at least cool about it. I still find 'Uncle Ghastly' funnier than Lola Internet or whatever, but hey, he's happy.
>>82810642

It's at Megatokyo. I don't know how that's something that still exists.

No, some people on tumblr used to spread rumors that PA had a ghost artist.
>>82811284
>I don't know how that's something that still exists.
He's just never deleted the website. It doesn't need anything else to continue existing.
I'm not sure that it's updating all that frequently. I've certainly not seen any new Megatokyo volumes out anywhere, just the same five old volumes.

Remember Book of Biff?
Dominic Deegan is a so bad its entertaining webcomic.
>>82810842
She's in 'just sort of there' territory at the moment. Her actual role is probably about to end up as pseudo-antagonist. While I said the point of the world is 'anime is real' I think the actual theme he's trying to aim for is "perception." Every major character in the comic is defined by how they perceive themselves and the world around them VS. how the world perceives them and that the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Piro and Kimiko are the baseline as they're the most 'normal' as in their aspirations and insecurities are most like normal people, while everyone else (save Largo) has something to hide or wants to be something they aren't and it's all weird bullshit. Miho is the extreme as she is apparently utterly defined by how others perceive her and control her life, and living 'for herself' is a literal recipe for disaster. Largo is the other extreme; he's a walking representation of that Ronald McDonald 'This book's normal and not weird' meme. His perception of the world is so twisted (not in the tryhard twisted fucking psychopath way but the actual definition of the word) that he takes everything at face value and finds it all routine like some kind of fucking savant. It's why Erika 'inexplicably' likes him so much after first meeting him even though Piro thinks he's an embarrassment. He's so utterly unfazed by everything that she can actually be herself around him. It'll all end in a ridiculously roundabout way of saying everyone needs to take the collective stick out of their asses and open up a little. It's just it took me until sometime last year to get a handle on this shit and that's fucking absurd for a near 20 year old comic.
tl;dr no
>>82809431
Nah, the latest page took a while. (2 weeks between 5/12 and 4/27. Before that was 4/16. 4/6. 3/11. 3/4. 2/25. 2/15. 2/6. 1/26. 1/15. 1/7. 12/28. 12/18. 12/13. Aaaand that big gap till 1/4/15.

>even though it was her 3rd time completely dropping a webcomic out of the blue with no explanation ever and just starting a new project when the fuss has died down
Tessa Stone a fucking shit
>>82806894
I think they got their books from the publisher, but the problem was they'd paid extra for special editions that Stone was supposed to doodle in, and she just didn't want anything to do with the comic any more so they had to ship out undoodled ones and reimburse the disgruntled buyers

RPG World never got an ending because Ian Jones Quartey graduated highschool and eventually made his way into animation.
Unlike a lot of these webcomics knuckleheads, he is not eating dented cans of spaghettios off his sweet sweet t-shirt money.
>>82814188
I liked the fact that Adventurers! had art that started off terrible, got slightly better for a while and then settled into a comfortable level of terrible. I think the artist realized that his art was never going to be great, so he might as well not stress about it and instead just focus on making the comic fun to read. I read it eagerly right up to the end, so at least in my case it worked.
>>82815714

Didn't it got canned because ian got tired of it and began knockforce instead? i remember that much at least.

I had the first five or six. I think I recently sold them with a box of other stuff.
Such wonderful autism memories.
>>82812486
I feel a little ashamed I gained a bit of popularity on the forums for that comic because I did a series of drawings of the male cast in drag. Even the creator got a kick out of them. I eventually stopped because I started loosing interest but I at least managed to read it till the end.
>>82815813
Oh dang. Yeah, that's way better, I was way off.
>>82814188
Adventurers was pretty clever. Shallow was never much of an artist, tho.
>>82815836
Well, Knockforce is certainly what he used his free time internet attention getting efforts for next after RPG World, through into the time he was working on Venture Bros, I think.

I knew I didn't imagine that webcomic! It was some 80s style, ultra realistic, intentionally ugly comic about a Immortal biker/CEO hunting down demons that killed his family in the future. He was like lobo played serious.
The comic did not go on very long (that art style looked seriously exhausting to keep up with any regularity) and the artist pulled it down fast. He started a spin-off comic set even farther into the future but that met the same fate.
Anyone have a archive or a link to it? I can't fucking find it anywhere.

I never finished it but read a good chunk a few years ago. It's nothing special but one of these days I still want to go back and read it all.
The Parking Lot is Full. It's the webcomic that pic related came from. It was my first webcomic, I read it back in high school. It's really good and it makes me sad that the Goofy meme overtook the actual comic in popularity.

>Speaking of which, remember when VG Cats was both popular and relevant? Scott really screwed up on that one, if he updated more he'd probably still be fairly big.

Why ashamed? It was the biggest wapanese community on the English speaking internet before 4chan existed, and for the time, the art was amazing. If you liked anime, Japan and webcomics, you read Mega Tokyo. Do you not still like those things?

>VG Cats has had a few decent strips here and there more recently though, typically the more serious ones, believe it or not.
That's kind of what I'm getting at. When Scott tries he's still pretty great, it's just that his update schedule wrecked the shot he had at remaining one of the big name webcomics.

"In addition, Campbell stated that one book would be burned for every email received after the update was posted.[8] Campbell also noted that the Pictures for Sad Children comic itself would be ending, and expressed discontent with money as a concept as well as the consequences of capitalism and its effects on relationships between people in society"

>his art has at least gotten objectively better.
I dunno, man, he peaked around 2012 or 2013 and has just gone completely off the fucking rails since. I respect his reasons for doing so (he felt his style got too static and wanted to experiment more, and he's done some really impressive background/panel work from time to time as a result) but holy shit most of his new stuff is so fucking ugly.

one of Psyguy's many ex-gfs admitted online that Psyguy was a bad person and had abused her and groomed her when she was like only 14.
normally this would just be standard fare on Tumblr but this one actually had logs of their emails and whatnot as evidence
This caused several ex-girlfriends to come forth and admit the same things, as well as other FB20XL members (including prominent ones like Kirbopher, CailenCrow and the girl that does the Heartcatch comic) confessing that he treated other members of the site like garbage
Psy tried to damage control, failed and fled the internet, nuking his site before going into hiding

Dark Places was so good, and Dungeon Grind is such a poor replacement. Probably my biggest abandoned-webcomic disappointment.
Second biggest is probably Thunderstruck, which was a pretty good modern fantasy thing about two sisters whose grandfather was actually Prometheus getting embroiled in a secret war. Author abandoned it to write scifi novels.
Runner up is Afterlife Blues, which was an in interesting sci-fi thing about an AI planning a heist to steal parts of itself back from captivity. The authors also wrote A Miracle of Science, which was pretty great for its day.

Only other people I know who're still doing something are:

>Some girl who did a succubus webcomic or something of the sort.
>>82825146
Yeah, it's a neat story and I really like the character design. I still have it in my favourites, on the off-chance that updates ever start again. (It's not like that hadn't happened before.)
>>82803235

It lead to MS Paint Masterpieces which is good.
>>82825146
Yeah, it was pretty great. I still hold out a faint hope of that one updating again.

All those memories and forsaken webcomics. Fuck me this is depressing.
I'm still salty about RPG World. I followed that shit right from the beginning, only to get blue-balled at the end. The fandom even offered to finish it itself, and the creator agreed, only to freak out when the project was underway and can it all. Fuck you, I still want my closure.

I wandered onto Stross while looking for good, modern science fiction writers. After all, when there's this wealth of good authors in the past, there have to be undiscovered modern writers, right?
I read Saturn's Children first, and I thought I had finally found someone who's not afraid to write boldly. But that's pretty much his most imaginative work. Singularity Sky is also pretty good, and I read that second. It was all downhill after that, and I didn't even touch that "Fantasy" that's just him pissing and moaning about American foreign policy for five books straight.
I was a fan, for however short a while, so I visited his site. Nigger, I was not prepared for the sheer hypocrisy and ideological flagwaving. What really got me was that he would ask a question for the commenters, and then he'd go off and get into bitchfits with people who didn't give the "right" answer.
There was also some crazy black bitch, who was a fellow author, in his comments making claims about how African slaves were used to do literally every shitty job in Industrial Age Europe. Massive victim complex, and of course writing black supremacist Steampunk.
That blog made me lose all respect for him. Fucker tics every SJW box, and I don't throw that term around just for people I don't like. Weird how a guy who openly invites fans to come drink a beer with him in bars is such a totalitarian cunt on his own site.

I just finished Kid Radd the other day. I liked it but it was a lot shorter than I thought it would be.
Once in a while I check the latest panels of Jerkcity. It's an acquired taste though.
When I was in high school I remember reading some webcomic about an MMORPG. In retrospect it was really shitty. I think it was called The Noob or something.

At least in the Nordics kings could be elected. Especially if a king fucked up, the nobility might just decide he's not fit for yhe job no more and lock him up and have an election-type thing among themselves about who to ask for the next king.
Think of it as a hereditary CEO position. If you do well, your kid will take over after you, but if you fuck up, the board of stockholders can give you the boot and appoint a new CEO
