Fun Facts about online comics

Hey there boys and girls! Today I have a very interesting subject: the art of the webcomic. My main focuses are those I read mainly. Let's see how many times I can say main in a sentence. Okay! I mainly choose to focus mainly on five main webcomics, which are mainly Penny Arcade, Sinfest, Machall, Megatokyo, and one of my new main farvorites PPG (mainly known as Powerpuff Girls....yes!) Four are fairly easy to find, the fifth, not so much. However, it is the wry cynism linger beneath the surface of these forms of medium which dictate a side of society that is usually hidden away from the jock ladden main stream of such companies as Ralph Lauren and American Eagle. This is the subcultures of the artsy, gaming geeks around the world. Penny Arcade focuses on mainly the gaming culture, and of course hilarity ensues. The characters are comical, slighty two diminsional in the beginning of the comic, but as it progresses the reader comes to get attatched to the bumbling antics of Tycho and Gabe (Gabe totally rocks). Sinfest is a commentary on religion and art, and is pulled off quite splendidly (James, you should read this one...you will giggle). My favorite characters are the offshoot charaters of the dog and cat, and of mini-Satan, or Satan's fanboy. Extremely funny. Two thumbs way way up. Machall, although an extremely witty commentary on gamer geeks and college life, not neccesarily in that order, updates infrequently. This is mainly because the artist is himself attending universities, and is therefore much more able to give a good commentary on the whole society of college life. Megatokyo, a classic, focuses on Japanese life, fanboys and gamer geeks (including the sub-sub culture of 1337 or leet/elite to those none computer speakers out there). Though the story has slow progression, the comic itself is worth the wait, with both enjoyable art and twists of plot, it has been well laid out. And teh final one which I just discovered today is the PPG anime-ified. As it was just discovered, no real substantial opinion has been formed yet, but give me time. An opinion always forms. That is all for now, I will fill your minds with more fluff and nonsense soon. More strangeness yet to come.
