    I saw a thread about comics and it got me thinking about Webcomics.

    Do any of your read any webcomics?

    Markiplier's brother has a pretty good one called TwoKinds that I've been reading since I was like 14

    and then there is another one called house Pets which has been pretty good :slight_smile:

    Some time ago I was introduced me to one called Gunnerkrigg Court. It's based on all kinds of mythology. The only problem is it gets a bit hard to follow after a while. On the more humorous side of things, there's Poorly Drawn Lines.

    Cucumber Quest is amazing! It has an awesome art style and is extremely self aware. And it's where my avatar came from, even though there's a way more suitable option for me in the same webcomic.

    Octopus Pie is another one I love. It's probably the "realest" webcomic I've read.

    There's a bunch of other ones I've read like xkcd, Questionable Content, El Goonish Shive, Homestuck, Paranatural, Kiwi Blitz and Monsterkind. They're all really good in their own rights but I feel like the first two are especially worth mentioning.

    Since I LOVE Magic the Gathering, this WEBCOMICS they created is my geek heaven. My favorite story is "The Wild Son" and "The Hunter and The Veil"

    TwoKinds, woo! That's only like the best webcomic ever.<3
    Good story + good art.

    As a close second favorite here, we have Prequel of course.
    PREQUEL

    I used to read a lot more, but so far only these two have managed to hold my attention so that I actually keep up with them and read every page. Good stuff! :icon_bigg

    (Also, I should note that Prequel is based around, and has a lot of references to the older Elder Scrolls games, if you haven't played it you might miss a few jokes.)

    Main characters are childhood friends that have secretly liked the other for quite some time and start a same-sex relationship at the start of the comic.

    Ménage à 3 :: I just got this job
    Funny webcomic about a group of young adults in ?Quebec?, somewhere in Canada experimenting with life, sex and relationships. Contains non-explicit NSFW scenes some times.

    Sticky Dilly Buns :: Understood
    Spin-off of the above comic, featuring one of the gay characters from that comic as the MC.

    ChaosLife - Picture Perfect
    Funny slice of life comic, that also deals with LGBT issues as one of the authors is DFAB agender and their wife identifies as non-straight.

    You're not alone. But like you pointed out, the updates are stupidly rare. Doesn't diminish from the genius of the dark humor, though.

    Also, this guy.

    It doesn't eat your brain or anything?

    That April Fool's comic almost went too far.

    TwoKinds is amazing. My only complaint is that the comic has been going on for a decade now and and the plots been going at a snail's pace.

    Awkward Zombie
    Corpse Run Comics

    Both are gaming webcomics and even though I don't get a lot of the references (because I'm only a minor minor gamer) when I do understand I feel so giddy inside. Also their peeks into their real life awkwardness makes me feel that I'm not alone in my introvertedness.

    I have a whole bookmark full of webcomics, I like some more "mainstream" webcomics like Questionable Content, xkcd and Scandinavia and the World, but I also read plenty of LGBT webcomics. The latest one I've added is El Goonish Shive - I've read some of them before but only recently read through the entire archives, and the thing that interests me most is the gender transformation ability that many of the characters have. I think I would be a lot like Tedd (but probably less sex-obsessed, if that's the right word to use) and I wish I had a more androgynous/feminine appearance, it probably would fit me more than my masculine one.

    There were other webcomics I used to read like Venus Envy but they've stopped now.
