openSingle comic about the ruins of civilizations that dont explore space being found by those that do. Webcomic
I cant recall with website its from, but it they did a comic one day about making a case for space exploration. Saying that lots of civilizations make the finanically sound decision to not "waste" money on it. And the ruins of those dead civilizations will be documented by the ones who made the financially unsound decsion to explore and colonize space. I thought it was xkcd, but i have been clicking through the archive and not finding it.
openGot a " two-fer " Webcomic
Doing a search for two webcomics.
The first one I'm almost certain has been featured on TV Tropes before but it must've vanished from the archives or something. Anyway, the webcomic is a comical superhero genre parody comic but it's set in a superhero/supervillain school setting. Some characters from the comic I remember are a nerd who becomes a Lex Luthor expy ( except with hair and glasses ) and an average joe ( I think he was dumb or naïve too ) who gains Superman's powers. There's also a Supergirl/ Power Girl expy whose a brunette and wears a black costume. I also remember the nerd and average joe have a physical altercation, that ends with the average joe dead ( The nerd uses a power armor and a kryptonite like mineral ) A particular line from the comic : " From the shadows, I leap/dive at thee ! " ( ...Or something like that )
The only things I can remember about the second comic is that one character seemed to be a female caucasian cop or dominatrix. While another female character was African-American, wore her head in dreads, had an EXTREMELY stripperific outfit and seemed to love the colors green and purple. In short, she made Nicki Minaj's sense of style look tame.
Special Notice : Sorry if I don't have the trope names right .
openHe-Man Parody Comic Webcomic
Hi, I'm looking for a Masters of the Universe parody comic in which a Skeletor expy tries to get his totally normal teen daughter into the family villainy business. When she blows him off to hang out with her boyfriend, he becomes so angry he accidentally kills his He-Man-ish rival, and then decides her boyfriend is his new arch nemesis. Does anyone know the name of this webcomic?
openWebtoon Comic Webcomic
It's about a brother and sister that has mental problems, the brother can't die and the sister sees things.(I know ... it's odd)
openSome relatively new webcomic Webcomic
At the time I read it, it was very short, around 60 pages, and still unfinished. The premise is that a TV-head guy takes a kid, who is some sort of a chosen one, to a mysterious land. I don't remember what happens in their travels, though. The comic is very beautifully drawn and imaginative.
Thanks in advance.
openWebcomic about the year of the rat? Webcomic
This webcomic had each of the years of the Chinese zodiac incarnated in a person, & although all of the other years knew who they were, he had lost his memories of being the Rat. It was set in modern times. It ran during the early & mid oughts, & I remember reading it all through when it finished but I can't for the life of me remember the name. The author used lot of sharp angles. I remember that.
openTrying to find Webcomic Webcomic
As the title says, I've recently remembered parts of a web comic I'd read as every update happened. Hopefully someone else might be able to answer what it is/was(if it was removed). The basics of the story would revolve around some new potion a mysterious company had produced or that had some connections to the company being sold to people, one case was a love potion that men ended up buying so that the women they wanted would love them, until the most desired loved everyone. A second example being the superhero potion, it caused extreme rage, and bestowed powers on the users, the heroes formed a league to balance out the villains, who grew tired off being relentlessly beaten up so they quit. Hopefully someone can decipher what I wrote to help answer the question of which web comic it is/was.
openAnimated (flash) webcomic Webcomic
I'm looking for a webcomic, animated i think in flash. it involved magic and was a mystery comic. there was a mysterious character named robin who always had one eye covered- (i think his eye was eventually reavealed to be all ruined or something i dont remember v well) and i think he worked in a bar? if anyone knows thanks
openFurry webcomic that mentions The Arcade Fire Webcomic
Sometime around 2009 or so, I recall reading this possible furry/anthro webcomic where there was this one character who was a kinda young, cute and naive. He talked about hearing news of an "Arcade Fire" and wondered if anyone survived it. Keep in mind that The Arcade Fire is the name of an actual band. I think the character was either some sort of canine (likely a dog or fox), a cat or maybe a ferret or raccoon. Also, for some reason I'm associating the strip with the word "laundry" subconciously. Can anyone help me find it or does anyone know what I'm talking about?
openWebcomic with bad karaoke guy Webcomic
A webcomic with a specific strip in which a guy is at a karaoke. His thoughts are along the lines of "If I keep singing, someday a music producer will notice me and my life of stardom and musical fame will begin". Everyone else's thoughts are along the lines of "Good god this guy sucks", and the last one is thinking "In my entire career as a music producer I've never heard anyone so bad".
openSpecific MSPA Fan Adventure and/or MSPA forums fan SBURB session... Webcomic
The main thing that sticks out about it in my mind was a character whose "your interests include" panel said he liked post-apocalyptic fiction and survival tactics, and originally thought that SBURB would let him live out the fantasy of surviving After the End, then got super-*** that he rescued from it by another player.
A routine Google search pulls up nothing, the older version of the MSPA forums has been gone for a while now, and mspfanventures.com currently has no search function, if they ever did. Does anyone remember this one?
Edited by SimYouLateropenMan resuscuded by blue alien sisters Webcomic
Man rescued from a drifting by a pair blue skinned, yellow freckled alien sisters. I believe humans are suppose to be extinct, hes at least the 'Token Human' of the comic through what I've read
The later get find a furry (cat derivative) stowaway, which they drop of on the next planet. The might have been a squid/octopus alien in there too, but I'm not sure.
Haven't see in in two years, don't remember the name. It wasn't very long at the time, I say under a 100 pages, but fairly detailed art
openShounen-ish Webcomic Webcomic
A webcomic where the protagonist is an android boy that works on coal. Has dark skin. There's a smoke pipe that comes out his back. He travels with a big guy who was wrongfully accused and seperated from his daughter.
It was colored. Had a cartoony visual style. Probably wasn't Japanese or American, but I might be wrong on this.
openSilent Protagonist Webcomic
I found the webcomic a while ago and it seems to have disappeared from Tvtropes since. I only know the plot of the beginning: the protagonist is whisked away to the space with a strange human looking alien who claims he made a prophecy concerning him. The guy went with him to a space station, only to find out the prophet is actually from a race of prophets who are mostly made extinct because they have the ability to make prophecies on a whim, and they inconveniently come true, which the people involved understandably hate. The poor guy can't find the way back because he lost his voice because he literally became a voiceless protagonist and no one can understand his writing. So, anyone know the webcomic I am describing? I'd pretty much like to see where it was all going. Thanks!
openTv show in the late 90s/early 00s about a very round fat cat Webcomic
There was a tv show that was on in the late 90s really early on in the morning, I wanna say like 5 or 6 just before Tribe on channel 5 began but I'm not sure if it is the same channel. I'm pretty sure the cat was ginger and partner for the show was a young boy that owned him. I think the title sequence referenced something about him being as round as the world and him eating everything, needless to say this is really bugging me and anyone who knows what the heck I'm talking about please help me out, it's been tormenting me for years And it's not Garfield or any of the usual others, I'm not sure there were many episodes so maybe it's really obscure. The main thing I remember is that this cat was almost drawn literally round
openWebcomic with male lead and purple haired love interest? Webcomic
There was a webcomic I read ages ago about a boy who basically ‘dies’ and then wakes up in class as a kid again with all knowledge from the time he died. He starts off as one of the weakest in his class but with his knowledge uses it to train and get stronger. His class and the higher tier kids look down on him and he makes a bet with his teacher that if he can get up to a certain tier then she has to quit teaching them and he also takes on teaching a purple haired girl and a couple of other kids.
They all go up in levels with ease after the training.
Part of what he remembers is alchemy and so he sells potions and stuff that help with levelling up to the alchemy association that start looking out for him and paying him and stuff.
And he’s a kid at this time and he gets stronger quite quickly
And the purple haired girl he has a crush on may end up with some kind of moon sickness/poisoning from training at night and so he gets her to stop and rest and helps with the training and stuff
Because they’re all told it’s nigh impossible to move high up unless you’re born with that ranks powers
But he proves them wrong
And I can't remember the name of this webcomic at all, please help?
openUndertale Webcomic Webcomic
I remember reading an Undertale Webcomic that featured a part where Mettaton plagerized some of Napstablook's and Shyren's songs, but I can't remember the name of it. Can someone help me with it?
openWebcomic about a lady superhero Webcomic
This was a webcomic I thought looked interesting and planned to read later but I guess I never bookmarked it. I remember only a few things about it. The main character, or a least point of view character was this blonde woman who seemed to be some sort of law enforcement. And we're introduced to her hooking up with some guy in a car. I think he might also be a cop, later he's revealed to be her foster brother,and his older biological brother disapproves of that relationship.
There is a super hero/costumed vigilante type who is maybe the actual protagonist. Blonde lady is a fan of her and I think has posters of her in her house and stuff. They meet pretty early into the comic, maybe the superhero saves her life and I think she's met to be her love interest. The super hero lady, the blonde cop and the two brothers I think are all on different sides and that drives some of the conflict.
Does anyone know what this is?
openMartial arts webomic Webcomic
There's a web comic I'm looking for which:
- it is mostly just fight scenes with little dialogue or character
- it is written by a martial artist who has a distinct distaste in unrealistic fight scenes. He hated anime in particular.
- the comic is also very heavy on commentary on martial arts in fiction
- he once wrote an article that superheroes only know a handful of moves
- he wrote an article on how you can't write a good fight scene; you have to show it (he dismisses fight scenes in novels)
- he wrote about The Matrix positively
- I think one fight was called The Encounter
- he analyzed a panel from an Electra comic
- another strip talked about how a certain one-armed throwing move doesn't have enough leverage in real life.
- another lamented on how characters will be world class martial artists but in reality only seem to know a handful of moves.

I'm trying to remember the title of a webcomic, relatively lushly drawn, that takes place in a universe populated by anthropomorphic dragons where the Internet is just starting out but cars are contemporary anyway. I know it's not *Dragon City*.
A little help?
