When a webcomic updates but you don't want to make a huge deal out of it, what you do

Art of Hilt · 08-18-2010, 12:21 AM

You come here and post about it that's what you do.
Yeah I was basically looking for the general webcomics thread that was all the rage a couple of months ago and was all, Where is it? Oh man. It's not there any more. Damn dude. Holy shit. I was completely lost.

Where am I going to talk about Lack A Daisy getting updated?

Or Octopus Pie's return to regular page by page updates so we don't have to wait three months for a chapter to come out?

Or gush over how Shauna in Bad Machinery is totally the most expressive character ever, how come less of a deal is being made of this than of Scary Go Round like Bad Machinery is Scary Go Round's ugly little cousin with the giant pimple on her forehead, no, that's just a judgement you made during Bad Machinery's awkward descent to puberty and she's growing up to be kind of cute and you should start paying more than five dollars on her Christmas present next year okay you can't just buy her a pen and then laugh in her face about how ugly her pimple is anymore.

That's right.

You know what I'm talking about.

Man, yeah, nobody had posted in the old thread since June. What's up wizzat?

It's downright bizarre is what it is.

I mean look at this. Doctor McNinja has a new storyline that might finally bring about the beginning of the conclusion of this TIIIME TRAAAVEL silliness, and not a single peep!

Not even the vaguest of whispers.

I mean, at least I can say that MSPA is eating up my life as a shadow of an excuse, but still!

I guess I can mention Schlock Mercenary, right? The current arc seems to be dragging on, if only because we spent something like a year and a half (of once-per-day updates) of teasing before we actually got to it, but with moments like these it's shaping up to be quite worth the wait.

oh, hey, QC is doing it's thing. It looks like Jeph is being nice to his characters for once.

Odjn · 08-24-2010, 06:53 AM

How about Bohemian Drive updating again?

Amake · 08-24-2010, 07:19 AM

Woot. I'd almost forgotten about those crazy robots. Hey, remember that time when one of them spent like 40 years in free fall? That was some uncannily heavy shit.

Also, Toto has made other songs than "Africa"? What

Erfworld still updates more frequently than VGcats, but only slightly, and whatever's happening with the plot really doesn't make up for it. Slow pacing+infrequent updates makes what could have been a good storyline far less fantastic.

I'm not really sure what to make of Faz being Amber's half-brother. Part of me is okay with it because it's kind of funny, but the other part is like, "Wait, we're doing this again?" Disturbingly, I doubt this revelation will discourage him.

MSPA has got to stop with these surprise wallops of massive otherworldly beauty cause my soul hurts. Seriously how does he do these things several times a day.
