Yes.YES.
My top 5 list of Webcomics:1. Homestuck2. Erfworld3. Gunnerkrigg Court4. Questionable Content5. Girl Genius
>>60499Baby Man sideplot is interesting
>>60500Is that Baby Baby.What.
>>60473I snorted at this one.
I'm enjoying Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name, and I don't even care.
>>60546Is it uncool to like this comic now?Those page layouts! That colour! Hanna is some high quality stuff.
>>60546>>60559The slash fandom is totally overrunning everything.It's a bit hard to enjoy something when there are a thousand screaming fangirls right around the corner.Speaking of gay, you know whats not getting any attention despite having solid writing, art, updates and a protagonist who is a flaming homo-communist-wrestler-revolutionary?Goodbye Chains.
>>60568You can ignore the fandom, and Tessa doesnt seem to completely cater to the slash shit.
>>60570Well yes, I have my own reasons for not loving the comic. I'm just stating why most people are kind of shying away from the comic now, for fear of being labelled a slash crazy fangirl. Silly, but keep in mind most people who read it are from dA.
>>60568I knew this was gonna get slashed to hell very shortly into it.....but who gives a shit?
>>60570It does get kinda hard to avoid it if you're looking for fanart or something, since slash permeates like 99% of it. Sometimes I get fed up with it, but I like the actual comic and I like its author and I hope to god the fandom doesn't ruin it for me one day.I keep meaning to read Goodbye Chains but have never gotten around to it.
You fuckers better be reading http://thechipperwhale.com/ and http://www.lovemenicecomic.com/
>>60579Has it been established whether or not they're in a shared universe?
>>60494. . .I haven't read Girly in years, and this still makes me SO HAPPY.
>>60579Already checking them out some weeks ago.>>60568I need to retake that one.
>>60600HAPPY LESBIANS YAY
>>60570>You can ignore the fandomUnless you want to, you know, discuss the comic with other people. Then your thread either gets hijacked with fangirls or anti-hipsters.
>>60499Ax Cop confirmed for Pyro.
My friend and generally reliable person just said that Dominic Deegan is actually really good. Has the internet lied to me?
>>60698Not really. The story isn't ridiculously horrible (as far as I've read anyway) but it's not that good either. And I hate the art. I hate the art so much that it hurts. Maybe your friend's more forgiving about the snout noses than I am.
>>60698there is something seriously wrong with your friend. Like, he might secretly read twilight and CAD behind your back.
>>60698I've been in that boat. My friend and generally reliable person told me that CAD was actually really great/better than Penny Arcade.Anyway, I'd go with the Internet on this one. Dominic Deegan makes my skin crawl.
>>60703>>60707>>60708Can I have details? My friend says that it has a good setting, characterization, and overall execution. I mentioned the rape thing, which is one of the few details I actually knew about it, and she said that it was handled relatively well. She went on to say that the comic touches on some sensitive subjects that might turn people away from it.Neither of us mentioned the art, but I think that she might have a higher tolerance for that particular style than I do.
>>60716>The legendary rape DD rape scene>Handled wellAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAhahah... Whoo. That's... That's a good one.
>>60720I can't use uninformed disagreement as a counterargument. I need explanations of the comic's badness, preferably from someone who's read a significant portion of it.
>>60716You're friend is wrong on all accounts.Mookie (which should be enough to tell you whether or not this is a good comic; it's made by someone with a high school mentality who thinks being called a cutesy nickname at 30 is endearing and not creepy) is completely incapable of handling drama and the fact that your friend thinks that the rape arc was handled well is really worrying. The rape arc basically boiled down to "It's okay to rape sometimes and also the person you raped will probably fall in love with you and forgive you and no one will ever villainize you for for being disgusting person" which tl;dr= mookie had to creat4e some drama so he decided "justified" rape was an appropriate way to achieve this goal.The current arc revolves around Mookie Dominic Jrs band. He's writing about music in a comic. You know, the visual media where there ARE NO SOUNDS. It's Mookie jerking off about how AWESOME HEAVY METAL IS (oh p.s. D Jr. just invented heavy metal after no one appreciated his first band he put together with the help of his friends because he had to PROVE HIMSELF TO THE WOOOORLD) while literally having no idea what the metal genre is composed of. Why would you write an arc about music if you can't even draw a guitar, for fuck's sake?Oh and do you like puns? I sure as fuck don't when every single strip is some godawful play on words (i.e. commenting on someone who is about to commit suicide by hanging "No, that is [i]knot[/] the answer!" complete with beat panel and all) that would not even make sense unless they were written down because Mookie thinks that homophones qualify as a joke. Spoiler: They don't.There are no sensitive subjects brought up in Dominic Deegan, only highschool bullshit (jocks are bad!) and attempts at heavy handed drama that are executed with the finesse of a amputee trying to wield chopsticks (oh no you are barren soooooooooooo dramatiiiiic and it is never mentioned again). One of the plots revolved around the murder of someone's "evil", by which I mean she was the designated evil character for no rhyme nor reason and had no reason to act like a bad person other than Mookie needed and bad character so why not, girlfriend. Rather than handle this without looking like a total dipshit, Mookie decided to draw the girlfriend who is also a hooker (because women have two roles in Mookie's world as girlfriends/sex objects or as evil bitches) with her ass prominently displayed in the air while the main cast sat around and cracked puns chortling about how great it was that she was dead.What the christ.The art is hideous, the characters one dimensional, Mookie's world view hilariously immature at best and blatantly offensive at worst and the jokes (or, I should say, attempts at jokes) are awful and suicide inducing.If you read it I will DISOWN YOU YOU HEAR ME
>>60723I'll just add that he has no sense of worldbuilding whatsoever. His setting is inconsistent at best, a giant junk heap of whatever he found lying around at worst. Plus, he doesn't understand how to use mood or how to juggle dramatic and humerous moments.And the art has hardly improved at all in eight years. He still has no comprehension of what a human face looks like in profile view. He still half-asses backgrounds whenever he decides to draw them (which is never). And all the characters look exactly the same; the only way to tell them apart is by their hairstyle, clothing and whether or not they have boobs.
>>60725Anon is very right.If that weren't enough to convince you, the Deegan forums literally have no fans in both the official forums (which I think may have been shut down after Mookie realized no one like his shit) or the keenspot ones, only very annoyed snarkers and people who read his comic solely to laugh at how bad it is. It was featured on "Your Webcomic is Bad and You Should Feel Bad" and has its own hate megathread on Something Awful, a dubious honor previously reserved only for CAD.It's bad.Just awful.
It looks like he put some effort into drawing the fifth panel here, and it actually looks kind of cool. That's the only panel of Dominic Deegan I have thought to be aesthetically pleasing, ever. I don't know if he can actually draw and is holding onto the dervative anime junk because he thinks that the "style" fits his comic, or the skeleton was just a fluke. Probably the latter.Let's highlight some gripes I've got with the comic's art:- Static fucking camera angles. Dominic Deegan is not a joke-a-day webcomic--it's got a narrative, it's supposed to evoke some sort of emotion in the reader. A good way to do that is to show movement and have variety in the angles. Does he do this? No. This page (for the most part; like I said, fifth panel is an anomaly) exemplifies his unwillingness to do anything but a flat, straight-on shot, over and over again. Dynamic angles and perspective are for losers who actually spend more than six minutes sketching their comic. What a waste of time that is.- He's inconsistent in drawing faces even when he is essentially copying them from one panel to the next. Here we see that he can't decide what Gregory's eyebrows look like, or if he even has them at all.- I also chose this page because it's that goddamned snout nose drawn over and over again. Has he ever looked at a human being from the side? Does he know that we have things called lips, and there is not, in fact, a straight drop from the tip of the nose to the chin?- Here, Gregory is sitting in a featureless white void, sitting near a large box, writing on paper in a way that no actual person would write on paper. This is like most panels. Also, it doesn't show his lower body. Mookie really hates the lower body (he can't draw legs worth shit and he knows it, so he gave up), so get used to not seeing it ever if you read Dominic Deegan.- He doesn't understand the upper torso either, mind you. This character is male. He looks like he has boobs. The only way you can tell that he is not female, in fact, is that Mookie didn't give him an eyelash at the side of his eye, and he's not wearing ridiculous revealing clothes.- What the fuck is with him and drawing random lines all over the characters' faces. What is it supposed to represent?? Is everyone blushing for no reason whatsoever all the time?
On the subject of art and cinematic angles, does anyone read The Meek? God it's beautiful.

Oh and 8BT ended today.Hm.In other news guess what tomorrow is the anniversary of?http://ctrlaltedit-online.com/gallery/index.php/MEGALOSS
>>60633>Then your thread either gets hijacked etc. For what it's worth, I promise I will never do that. I have a deep and abiding love for Alien Vs. Predator, because/in spite of the sex jokes, poop jokes, pop culture jokes, and the New York jokes that I don't have a prayer of really understanding. AVP rarely settles for a plain setup-and-punchline; it usually has two or three funny things happening in the background too.
>>60736>I don't know if he can actually draw and is holding onto the dervative anime junk because he thinks that the "style" fits his comic,According to TV Tropes, that's what he says. Apparently his artistic ability has expanded since he began, but he thinks that this style is what works for DD.
>>60760That "style" is cribbed straight from the Slayer's anime. Mookie is an unoriginal hack in every sense of the word.Also just because he came up with an excuse as to why his "style" sucks doesn't mean it's true. It's telling that everything he draws even after 7 (?) years of doing nothing but drawing day after day is terrible. He simply refuses to get out of this rut he's dug himself into because, like Buckley, he refuses to improve as an artist because he's lazy and uninspired.
>>60752NEVAR FORGET
>>60760I think I saw something that was supposed to be his "good" style once and wasn't very impressed.I may be thinking of Buckley, though.
I love Questionable Content.
>>60783sure is bad webcomics in here
I'd wager that this is his "good" style. It's more detailed and stuff.Still pretty mediocre, still has anatomy issues, still looks like he half-assed it. The problem with him, I believe, is that he's spent so many years not giving a shit about what his comics look like that he's actually forgotten how to put effort into drawing them. He spends maybe ten minutes roughly sketching out his drawings and whoops that eye looks kinda weird but who cares let's ink it anyway, it's not like these strips are going to be hanging in an art gallery one day so WHO CARES how many mistakes are in it. It's not like mistakes can detract from the story or anything! It's just a comic!
>>60783Me too.
>>60783Questionable Content is cute! I don't really follow it but the characters are likable and the art is ok. I wouldn't consider it to be a bad webcomic...
:3>>60789:3
>>60798Last three panels need to be cropped into a reaction image pronto.
>>60784Thank you

>discouraging changes and disagreement >This part is left blank for people to add comments
>>61421I think that if you put Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff in the God Tier of webcomics, you're one of those people it was made to make fun of. Even if you do it ironically. Just saying.
>>61421I'm helping.
>>61421Menage a 3 in Great?I thought /co/ hated Ma3?
>>61439That's why it's a troll list.
>>61439I think /co/ generally considers it a guilty pleasure.But yeah, this list is futile.
Good to have you back Otra.>>61423:3Never change Bea.
Never before has a comic summed up my life as well as this one.
In other news, Dresden Codak has updated again, and its more hilarious than ever.

>my face when moon over june
>>61704People actually read that piece of shit?
>>61707If it helps any, I'm not even sure what piece of shit is being referred to here.
>>61709Moon Over June. It's like the webcomics version of Marmaduke, except that the joke is badly-drawn lesbian sex.
Man Pauline, you are a terrible friend.
>>61687:Oalso squid this rocks

>>61743I love the Commander so much it's crazy.
>>61680ohgoditjustkeepsgettingsadderI actually teared up a bit here. Never has a webcomic affected me like this one does.
>>61778It's one of those things I can't believe I get to read legitimately for free on the internet. It's better than most of the professional stuff done by anyone anywhere.
>>61778>>61837Signed. I'm definitely going to buy the first issue whenever it comes out.
Wait, what?>>61778Just wonderful.>>61846Ditto.
