''Goodbye Chains'' is a {{webcomic}} by Alice Hunt and Tracy Williams. It details the dramatic (and comical) misadventures of thieving con artist Banquo White and his Communist (yes, you read that right) companion, Colin Lord.
Generally speaking.
It takes place in the [[TheWildWest American West]], so there's frequent use of TheWestern tropes. (It is also an excellent example of ShownTheirWork when it comes to the setting and its history). It sports a concoction of clever writing and great character interactions, especially between the two main characters, who are most likely ready to kill each other (at least from Banquo's end) as much as to support each other.
The comic can be read [[http://www.goodbyechains.com/ here]]. It has a sister site titled ''VenusInPoints'', "which is about Banquo and Colin if they were badly drawn cartoon doggies who die a lot." It can be read [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/heykidzcomix/pointyvenus/series.php here]].
