I know that web cartoon very well. It's indeed hilarious, especially the later ones making fun of AD&D and combining police series with fantasy world. Sytytä toiselle tuli ja hän pysyy lämpimänä jonkin aikaa. Sytytä hänet palamaan ja hän pysyy lämpimänä loppuelämänsä. |

Umm... why now all of the sudden? There's no new strip today... Oh. You just found it, eh? :D If you like the in-jokes, be sure to check out http://www.wtfcomics.com/ which is an Everquest-based webcomic. With "he's not a druid, he's a dr00d" type humor. BTW - OoTS is specifically making fun of D&D 3.5, not AD&D ;P Notice the update from 3.0 to 3.5 in the first strip :D A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks.

Order of the stick rocks. It's been out for awhile. Definately one of the best webcomics out there. Homework is not meant for home! It's a sick verbal coincidence! -My brother |

2-3 Hours Taz? I've don things far worse then that ;) http://www.flipsidecomics.com/ - Took me one night to read (all of it, 800+ pages of Book 0 and the current book 1) Started something like 21:00, finished at 5:00 am. A good read I might add, you should read it too. http://www.sinfest.net/ <- 2 days(nights actually, I slept during the day :P ) of non-stop reading. Most likely the best web comic in the world. If you've never read it, do it. Also read a few other ongoing webcomics in 3-4 hours. I'm an addict or something ;P A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. [Edited 1 time, last edit on 9/28/2006 at 07:54 (GMT -5) by Maelstrom] |

That's why collage rules :D I can waste countless hours on web comics ;) I follow 15 ongoing series, and the morning check-my-email-forums-and-stuff takes 2 hours :D A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks.

Huh. If I'd check the General Forum more often, I'd notice these things. I'm an avid fan of Order of the Stick. I've read Sinfest, too, and even though it really is good, I confess that I forget about it occasionally after it hasn't updated for WEEKS again. (Which is a shame) I've got an extensive list of webcomics I read or have read regularly. You may want to try "Real Life Comics" (Six years of gaming fun, among other hilarious stuff) or "The Dreamland Chronicles" (You'll think you're in a Pixar movie, the CGI is so freaking GOOD). Oh, and about the webcomic archive reading nights: I've had them too ;) You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west. Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?" Which direction? (123456789) 4 Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid! Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is annihilated. You hear the ecstatic cries of a large crowd! |

OotS is awesome. It was actually brought up earlier in these forums, which is how I got into it. Sinfest is great as well. If you like "Order of the Stick", you should also like the following comedic Sword and Sorcery comics: Goblins The Gods of Arr-Kelaan RPG World I found "Gods of Arr-Kelaan" because he did a great guest strip for "Order of the Stick". It is a comedy/adventure about earthlings getting god like powers on an AD&D planet. "Goblins" is a story in AD&D told from the perspective of . . . well. . . the goblins. "Goblins" starts slow, but the writer quickly finds his groove. "Goblins" also has a great side strip called "Tempts Fate". RPG World is a very random story about a computer RPG. Occasionally it jumps to the person playing the game or devolves into crudely drawn filler strips, but it is still very good. I also enjoy Hellbound which is a comedic Demon adventure strip. Completely unrelated to Swords and Sourcery, I found Misfile which is a comedy/adventure Angels/Earth manga. "Misfile" has a fun side strip called "Building 12" If you want a serious/Drama type Swords and Sourcery comic, try: Inverloch |

Silfir, Sinfest has been updated daily for the last three months... Tatsuya's no longer on keenspot thou, so you might be looking in the wrong place - sinfest.net takes you to the new main page. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks. |

Sinfest is updating again? All the time when I'm not looking... Well, I may look into it sometime again. You drop the golden ball. You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west.

Yeah, if you have to play CE, that's the way to do it. I personally like Miko. If I met her in real life, I'd hate her--but she's a fascinating character. And a great enemy for Belkar... you don't know who to root for!! As for my favorite protagonist (because, let's face it, Miko's a "bad guy" or at least an NPC, despite her LG alignment), that would definitely be Vaarsuvius. Who can argue with Ultimate Arcane Power? Die Gedanken sind Frei |

Thog is best. Thog: "Thog have time adjusting to prison. Prison changed thog" Elan: "We were only there 40 minutes" Thog "Prison changed Thog quickly" Priceless! But they are all good (characters and everything), Oots has got to be one of top webcomics. Homework is not meant for home! It's a sick verbal coincidence! -My brother |

Oh yeah, OOTS rocks. I also liked the ending of the duel between Redcloak and the high priest of the 12 gods. RC: Destruction! HP: ... Does a 21 save? RC: No. HP: Crap. *ZOT* And also the play with Soons...er...the boss-ghost's name in the latest one. Sytytä toiselle tuli ja hän pysyy lämpimänä jonkin aikaa.
