Hey guys been pretty busy with the 'real' world recently and by that I mean getting distracted by shiny things. An by shiny things I mean to say I proposed to my girlfriend, she said yes, and now I am slowly drowning in a sea of wedding preparations and financial 'responsibility'. WHAT HAVE I DONE!?!?!...So if you are wondering why this blog's been empty for just over a week that'd be why!
Anyway without further ado here is another mildly amusing web comic round up I managed to whip up, enjoy!
The adventures of Superhero Girl: Faith
Erin Hick’s ‘Superhero Girl’ delivers a cute, quirky and very Scott
Pilgrim-esque take on the Super hero genre. The comic follows the 20-something
year old ‘Super-Hero Girl’, a deadbeat superhero who can’t seem to get a break.
The concept and delivery are all pretty straightforward and admittedly not
exceedingly original. However Hick’s artistic and writing skills turn what
could have been an average comic into an exceptional one.
Hick’s
is a veteran of the web comic scene, previously doing long running series such
as ‘Friends with Boys’ and ‘demonology 101’, and it really does show. The art
is exquisite and is all hand pencilled and inked a rare treat in this age of
Photoshop. The only downside to this comic is its recent irregular update
schedule, supposedly updating Tuesday’s the comic has been untouched since
August this year. With that said it’s currently sitting on 100 comics so I’d
highly recommend putting aside a spare hour to go on a superhero girl binge.
Warbot in Accounting:-The
name pretty much says it all for this one. This highly sadistic web comic
follows the adventures of Warbot – a two ton killing machine who somehow finds himself
in the fast paced world of corporate finance. What I thought would be a violent
comic full of robot rampages manages to deliver Dilbert style humour usually at
the expense of poor Warbot. With only 15 issues this is a practically
small web comic and will only take about ten minutes of your time to read.
Worth looking into if you enjoy dark office based humour.
