after you have read raine dog please read the news post:

Quote
If anyone really does think that, I have to ask: do you read Nabokov's Lolita and think he's advocating pedophilia? Do you read Dickens's Oliver Twist and think he's advocating selling children on the street, or picking pockets? Do you read Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights and think she's advocating necrophilia? Do you read Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and think she's advocating legalized rape?

In other words, do you go through life constantly assuming that anything that's presented in fiction is a full-throated endorsement of that behavior in real life? I very much doubt you do.

For that matter, since, sadly, not enough people actually read books...do you watch "Family Guy" and think that, because Brian the dog regularly dates, and sleeps with, human women, Seth McFarlane is therefore "advocating bestiality"? Yes, it's "just a cartoon." So is this.

ahh yes not enough people read actual books *knows nothing about anything*

also if you guys want I actually know lots of legitimately terrible comics, not like DUNGEON WARDEN but shit that is horrifying on levels etc like raine dog do you want me to post them (ps they are actually the kind of thing where you are like man humanity really at a few points but usually sans nudity/gore which is what usually makes you think this)

basically do you want to see the worst???

*unlocks the dark vault*

okay first off a lot of people do not seem to know this so I'm going to share this story.

a while back this woman named Jade Raymond was hired by the Assassin's Creed people to be their lead. Raymond didn't have the best credentials but looked a bit okay so gamers started saying LOOK AT THIS THEY HIRED A SLUT. I should point out as far as I know Raymond did nothing to deserve this other than 1. take a job and 2. look normal. a guy named Dave Cheung did a pretty disgusting comic where it showed all these fat nerds being sucked off by Raymond, ending with a bukakke and BUY ASSASSIN'S CREED.

I'd like to reiterate: Raymond did nothing to deserve this at all! now what happened afterwards got a bit of netpress because some dude at SA posted it and Ubisoft tried to cease and desist it, all of which is rather stupid and they deserve the response blah blah but here is the aftermath:

-no one stopped buying Assassin's Creed.
-Jade Raymond still has an unfair reputation of being an industry whore, and all the nerds clapped each other on the back
-Dave Seung got a lot of nerd pride and still has about five hundred megs of child porn out there WHOOPS.

yeah the guy who drew the original comic was for years one of the biggest pedo artists out there. look up Scribblekid if you really want but I have my limits. there's fucking loads of it. in a nice twist by the way, his terrible comic for years charged you like twenty dollars and you got a picture of one of his characters in a bikini or showing her panties. he also filled his comic with that shit, you can go look at that terrible fucking thing but it's boring as shit. it's called Chugworth Academy.

basically a pedophile accused an otherwise innocent woman of whoring out for the industry while dressing his characters in scantily clad outfits and begging for money.

that's not even one of the ones I was thinking of, but it's a good intro into the kind of person we're dealing with here as Seung btw has published a book of Chugworth Academy.

here's ED's terrible entry about it where they ignore the fact that they have Seung's art under webcomics as an example of violence and child porn (calling him a "webcomic artist"). idk if there's something to sperg about it's the high horse a pedo has over a fucking employee. http://encyclopediadramatica.com/Ubisoft#Jade_Raymond

okay now let's get to the great shit.

-a popular trend in webcomics is to start out with a gag comic and slowly fall into horrible drama plotlines. a good example is the atrocious Ctrl Alt Del miscarriage plotline, something so bad Buckley not only saw a so far permanent hit in visitor numbers but has been deinvited from comic book expos and basically become known as a joke. it is because webcomic authors mostly suck at everything.

Squidi became famous back in I think 01, and our own Hiretsukan had a part in it! Squidi made a sprite comic that he insisted was pixel art. so when a Penny Arcade member used one of his characters for a template, he contacted PA with a legal threat. bad move, as a bunch of people started to steal his sprites. turns out Squidi is a humorless dick, and Hiret made a squidi character generator that got passed around and Squidi ran away and most everyone forgot about him BUT NOT PEO!!!

Squidi tried to relaunch his comic a few times until he realized when he was just running a shitty (look at those gradients man. also for a pixel artist, he sure didn't notice his eyepatch was moving) gag strip he had more of an audience and went back to it but decided it's time for a horrible plot again!

okay just context: this isn't the first time Squidi has "challenged" his audience. here is a completely out of place swear: http://www.squidi.net/comic/amd/view.php?series=amd&ep=2&id=89
here is the pixel artist showing us not one http://www.squidi.net/comic/amd/view.php?series=amd&ep=2&id=79 but two massacres of innocents http://www.squidi.net/comic/amd/view.php?ep=1&id=246 so much...blood...

okay I'm getting bored but he also tackles wonderful issues like abortion and actually had a sidecomic that is just the gooniest fucking thing and you're like UGH YOU SAY THAT ABOUT EVERYTHING but click this shit: http://www.squidi.net/comic/aaa/index.php

but none of this compares to what I'm about to link. I'm not even going to provide context, okay, just remember this was not done as a joke!

http://www.squidi.net/comic/amd/view.php?series=amd&ep=3&id=85

go forward about two clicks and you will experience a wonderful time.

the only reason squidi hasn't become a name with anyone is because after his comic collapsed the first time almost no one remembered him but me and so you can see his decline into insanity.

jesus christ that took longer than I thought I will speed this up.

-Goblins first came into the limelight when fairly terrible webcomic Order of the Stick got popular and people started looking for their next fix of stupid D&D jokes. it has the quickest turnaround from comedy to drama I've seen in a while but HOLY SHIT this is one ugly piece of shit. every character is melted. why!!! I'm not even sure if the artist is talented because EVERYONE HAS A MELT FACE. it's also unbelievably violent. I don't mean that as an exaggeration, I mean the violence is honest to god unbelievable because the characters still shout D&D shit like I'VE TAKEN -5 DAMAGE while someone is impaled through the throat and gags out blood. I mean holy shit this thing is ugly and violent. his money shilling gimmick is pretty awful too; he puts some fan character named Tempts Fate against supposedly unbeatable puzzles and you have to donate up to some amount to see how Tempts Fate will get out of it. it's pretty awful.

but Goblins is particularly amazing not just because of little ugly meltface people killing each other in the worst ways possible (flip to like any page seriously, he has prolonged torture scenes and everything) but because of an SA thread that I think everyone here passed around. the thread was something like WHAT IMAGE ALWAYS MAKES YOU CRY NOT FROM SADNESS BUT FROM ITS POWER and it was mostly stupid shit like a soldier crying from his dead buds or whatever but then someone posted this and it was honestly the funniest fucking thing at the time:

http://www.goblinscomic.com/d/20061223.html

th...thank you blobbo.

-lastly here is a good one that I also don't need to write much about. Better Days[url=http://www.jaynaylor.com/catalog.html]furry porn] is Jay Naylor's sideproject. I say side project because the dude makes a comfortable living selling LOTS of [url=http://www.jaynaylor.com/catalog.html]furry porn, I mean, fucking loads of this shit.

Naylor himself, by the way, is completely fucking insane. I mean he's a confurvative, somehow more CONSERVATIVE than he is furry, and his shitty webcomic reflects it. it's also pretty racist, sexist, hell any negative you want to apply fits, so I'm just going to link this pretty good break down instead of doing it myself: http://www.crushyiffdestroy.com/show/bdays

what's great about better days though is an arc the writer of the above missed. once again I don't want to spoil this incredible shit so I'm just going to link the whole chapter.

http://www.jaynaylor.com/betterdays/archives/chapter-10-brothers-arms/

he also did draw a porn comic about this I can't find so no the implication is not something only you are picking up!

that's three and I'm tired but if you spent an hour in the archives of any of these sites your head will probably feel really bad for the rest of the day.

i mean one of you already posted Snafu comics which decided to imply 9/11 was the fault of Mandy from Nickelodeon's Billy and Mandy and that Jamaican Death was attracted to her as a child so I'm willing to bet 20% of you read the above and don't get what's so awful about them.

Hell yes do I want to see the worst humanity has to offer.

I'm not quite understanding this bit, though. Do you mean they aren't necessarily NSFW but really just grotesque otherwise?


EDIT: ohno you already posted them
don't mind me, just postin' after a few brewskies

i did it rajew...so others dont have to *smiles knowingly, melts face off with butane torch*

edit what makes goblins so perturbing is that they keep the fucking D&D jokes around during the violent shit. it's just really the most surreal thing and makes it all so much worse. like if you watch a rape it's bad but it's worse when the rapist moans MOMMY. one of those feelings.

this webcomic equals hypothetical rape watch...

man I read through the entire archive of goblins i don't know why! Like I knew it was terrible but I was bored and it was winter.... *shudder*
Also the naga in recent strips who is the "slave" of some ranger dude. he keeps her on a leash in skimpy NAGABRA. get serious vibes from that shit.

also isn't squidi that guy who tried to make 300 game ideas in a month or something, and most of them were the same idea but slightly expanded upon changed and then he gave up at 150 or something?

edit: better days OH GOD that arc you linked. this is the internet....

rainedog.

 I was looking at the first couple and it was pretty stupid with an undercurrent of furriness but I just skipped ahead and the boy and the dog kissed. Haha it was put in the weirdest way, too - "When you think about it...I'm the first girl you've ever spent the night with."

Man oh man.

the reason I linked the ones I did is because if you do the rainedog thing and start at the beginning you expect stupid and bad shit and then suddenly it kicks you in the fucking face and you are like WHAT WHAT JUST HAPPENED.

WHY IS THAT BLOBBY GUY SUDDENLY BLEEDIN OUT OF HIS FUCKING EYES.
WHY DID MEGAMAN RAPE A GIRL
WHY ARE THOSE TWO KIDS FUCKING

The Abominable Charles Christopher is a really good one that I never hear internet jerks chattering about. The guy who draws it is an actual, professional comicbook artist so it looks really nice, but he only updates once a week. I like to check up on it every couple of months
Dang. This is the greatest web comic I have ever read. Thanks for turning me on to it.

Also, I really enjoy Truck Bearing Kibble.

My only problem with Charles Christopher is that part of me wants to just forget about it for like a year and go back to it and read all those updates but in the end I just keep reading it every week and it never feels like enough (mostly because it's SO GOOD this is nothing against it).

I always hated this about comics that are updated once a week (or less), I mean yeah I want them to put that much time into it but I am also impatient :(

I kinda stopped reading Goblins out of humor and more so for the, "OH MY GOD WHATS UP WITH THIS!!! (the guy and that armour curse, oh god)," and I stopped reading Snafu after going through Grim's diary.

Still that squidi guy sounds interesting but I don't want to know.
A tool is a tool regardless. I mean if you suck, you suck, and not even the most perfect tool could save you. And if your damn good then even with the worst tool ever conceived you could chug out some high quality shit.

Wait, did someone already say Return to Sender?

It's one of my favorite reads ever, I'd buy it in print if I could.


Ps. I used to read A Modest Destiny and I totally never saw that stuff you linked! Wow!
The sprite thing you're talking about though is kind of shitty. Regardless of how much effort it took him to make the sprites, they were still HIS, and taking them warnt cool. Aside from Modest Destiny he had a space comic I think that was joke-a-day format and iirc it was much better.

he also had no cause for legal action and no one took his sprites at all. someone MASSIVELY edited it, to the extent only Squidi noticed and it was because one character didn't have edited shoes. that's not good enough to file for copyright for a pixel image online.

this wasn't a case of konix's tree being straight up jacked. this was like...god I wish I had his comparison image, because you could see how ridiculous he was being. the guy even said "oh whoops, I didn't know it was such a big deal" when it happened, but Squidi is such an unbelievable piece of shit he had already threatened legal action.

he's also somewhat famous in the pixel art community for taking absolutely no criticism whatsoever from more talented people.
