Hi, I'm looking for a webcomic I used to read before, but whose name I don't remember.
I remember the style was PRETTY similar to awkwards' zombie, but it was another comic.
I remember strips such as:
- Dr.Manhattan saying "this is the only logical thing to do", then making his penis bigger
- People from Pandora calling Shepard to help them solve their problems
- Then calling Starfox, to which he answeres "sorry, only 1 dinosaur planet for me"
- Some agents brainwash Shyamalan "Inception style" to stop him from making movies. The author self-insertion then proceds to throw a "bey blade-thingy" to see if he is sleeping.
open(SOLVED) Specific Girl Genius page Webcomic
I think it's in Girl Genius that I have seen some minion being insulted by their master, who called them a lackwit and a cretin. But I have no idea when in the comic that was, and it's a little too big to do an Archive Trawl just because of that, so if anyone remembers vaguely when it was...

I recall this one webcomic that I was a huge fan of a while a ago. But, apparently, I wasn't a big enough fan to remember the name. Which is weird, since I remember most of the story arcs, but more on that later.
The main gist of it was just essentially to guys living together, one the Only Sane Man, and the other a Cloud Cuckoolander. It was Better Than It Sounds. But the main thing I remember was the iMonkey, which was Exactly What It Says on the Tin: a monkey infused with an iPod. Also, I think Doctor Doom was in it, but I'm not sure.
Oh, right, those story arcs I said I remembered. Well, the one I remembered the most was one of the guys selling a script about them to a movie-production thingy, and they become filthy rich. In the end, since Status Quo Is God, God himself burns down their mansion.
Other than that, and the fact that Chuck Norris was the monkey in the movie trailer, I'm pretty much drawing a blank here. Any help her, guys?

I remember reading a webcomic a while ago, but I wanted to start reading it again but forgot the name and A LOT about out it. The only things I remember about it was that it was about a guy who lived in a world with humans and toons and lives in an apartment with a toon bear. He had a crush on his boss who was a green skinned woman with very large forearms and a circular nose,

There was a black and white webcomic with seemingly supernatural and/or sci-fi themes that had a girl with a Ash Ketchum-esque baseball cap, jacket, and tight jeans, and in the one page I saw of it, she was a hell of a fighter. I remember finding out about it through the now-deleted Baby Got Back page, because the girl, well, had quite the ass.

It's a short comic I read a few years ago, about the current game consoles becoming friends with each other in a Crowning Moment Of Heartwarming. I remember in one part, the PS3 says something along the lines of "Sometimes I feel lonely because people say I have no good games," and then the Wii and X360 comfort him saying "It's okay, we think you're cool!" Then the next few panels show the Wii, X360, and PS3 hanging out, taking care of the X360 as he catches a cold, remembering old consoles like the Sega Dreamcast, and so on.
Anyone know what comic this is? I loved it because I like all of those consoles, and it was very heartwarming to see the consoles as friends.

What I'm looking for is a Strongbad email
where, in the intro before he even reads the email, he is pressing random keys on the keyboard and he accidentally plays this awesome guitar rift or solo. I think he even says 'Whoa! What button did I just press?' or some similar sentiment.
It has got to be an earlier one from the Compy days. I've tried looking for it myself. And I don't expect someone to look through every email in the archive... but if you know which one it may be- I would appreciate it. Thanks. =]

There was a (hand-drawn?) webcomic about a female swordmaster who set up a school for girls to train as she had learned. Other characters included some sort of spirit shaman-esque monster hunter, a wizard who lived in the building where they set up the school (which doubled as a lighthouse?), some kobolds who also lived there and the dragon they reported to. Antagonists included feral elves, some kind of highly powerful spellcaster as a big bad, rival martial arts schools etc. Better than it sounds.

There was a series of webcomics I remember during the late '90s, centered around an anthropomorphic teddy bear. Each issue (there were at least three) was different, darker, and more terrifying than the last. In the first issue, 5-6 stuffed animals go traipsing through the forest, and each in turn is horribly killed or ... turned somehow.
By the third issue, the storyline had become completely plotless & surreal, and was set inside a carnival funhouse. In one frame, the teddy bear says "Henh," grinning at the Wolverine claws he'd just inexplicably sprouted. In the next—wordless—panel, he's sporting spirally MadEyes, and poised to strike out at the reader.

A webcomic I read a while back about various nasty things (nightmares?) seeping into the real world. One of the main characters had golden eyes as the result of a genetic trait (although demonic influence was originally suspected) Some magic is involved and one of the characters is a demon who has been convinced to work with the heros, but originally fought the heroine.

Does anyone remember what was the name of this early webcomic? It was one of the first webcomics from around 1994 and 1995. All the characters were stick figures and it made fun of video games. The only joke I remember was about Doom II and how its so violent, you could use it to study the human anatomy. I remembered that its name was Stickboy, but its not it, because I couldn't find anything on Google.

There was a webcomic from a while back that finished up pretty neatly. It was about three friends who had all died at once, and awoke in coffins in the afterlife. They were greeted by an old man whose job it was to greet the newly dead, and since apparently everyone is disbelieving of their being dead at first, he's made a habit of decapitating them with an axe to show them that, yes, they are deceased. They end up fine, of course, as any serious/mortal injuries obtained in the afterlife wear off quickly. Out of the three friends, one of them is a girl, one of them is a dude with white hair (I think his name is Noah, or Moses, or some other old Biblical name), and the last, who is basically the main character, is a dude with short dark hair. In this story, the afterlife they are in is pretty much a huge city, with a retirement village-esque area on the outskirts of the city for the older dead (which the greeter man refuses to go to).

there was a webcomic i saw, it seemed steampunk-ish. i only saw the first few pages, but it was western-style art, long/comic book style format, full colour. two men were sneaking across rooftops in the middle of the night, then one picked the lock to a roof, and they snuck inside to someone's room. they seemed to have the intention of stealing something specific. anyone know?

A couple weeks ago I found some site that was part of the Cheezeburger network that was probably a section of a huge site, it had countless My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic pictures referred to as Bronies instead of memes, but many of them were actually comics like what I expect to find on Deviant Art or 4chan. What site was it?

There's a picture of a comic (like a scan, I guess) that's in black and white. There's a naked / topless woman and a man wearing a mask with two eyes and a giant smile painted on it. He has a knife and the woman is screaming for him to go away. He slices her breast and maybe stabs her. Anyone know of the picture or, even better, where it's from? Thanks!

Several years ago — 2005? 2000? Really not sure — there was a webcomic where a guy wanted to be the best... swordsman? I'm not sure, some kind of fighter — So he went to see this woman who was to give him three tasks as part of his training. His first task was to bring her a cup of coffee, which he did. His second task was to chop down a particular giant redwood tree using a wet noodle. He leaves, then comes back and tells her he succeeded. When she asks how, he explains (this all happened offscreen) that he waited for the noodle to dry out, then he set the noodle on fire and used it to start a forest fire. In the forest fire the redwood caught fire and fell down. She agrees that he succeeded and gives him his third task: Bring her another cup of coffee.
Does any of this sound familiar to anybody? I only remember this one plotline. I think it must have been a comic I discovered one day, read for a while, then lost again. And I haven't seen it since.

There used to be a fan fic reccomendation on the Homestuck page that's gone now. It was on Archive of our Own and had all the kids separated in a wasteland America after the game, and they get set on trying to find each other. The beginning was really good, Dave getting heat stroke and drinking this sickly hot old coke or something, and then starting to hallucinate that Jade is there, writing "Dave and Jade!!" everywhere, and he tries to break into a car but it's shot.
Rose gets like, feral and John is the most successful, travel-wise. I think he found a train or something.
The ending kind of sucked. They end up on Jade's island and start growing stuff and Dave is so frustrated with what they've become he tries to kill himself, or something. And then the trolls land. Whatever, I'm really aching to read the beginning again, so if anybody knows what fan fiction I'm referring to, it would be mucho appreciated!!
