I've never made a post like this, but I've had the thought of doing it for a while, so here goes nothing...

These are all the webcomics I'm currently reading!(And why I think you might like them!)

Fantasy High by Dimension 20 & Denaseey

I'm a huge fan of Dropout, and especially Dimension 20. Now, there's an accessible version of the first campaign that pretty much anyone can read and enjoy. from what's been released so far, It's definitely an abridged version of the story, so don't expect it to hit every single point of the campaign. However, it's still a great version of the story. High recommend if you're a fan of the series or just D&D in general.

Clown Corps by Joe Chouinard

This is everything a guy, gal or etc could ask for in a clown-based action series. It's exciting, it's hilarious, and it gets surprisingly deep in the further you get into it (the standard process for most webcomics). If you love clowns, I cannot recommend this enough.

Yellow Brick Ramble by Daisy McGuire

I've always loved the classic Oz books (Or at least the first 3), so I was already sold on a series that took the trans subtext of Ozma and just removed the sub- prefix. However, what I didn't expect was how genuinely close the writing feels to the original story. I'm being genuine when I say there were certain points where I paused reading and went "Wait...Was that from the book?" And, I gotta say, if you're writing for Oz is so good that I genuinely can't tell what's original and what's from L. Frank Baum himself, I'd say you did a pretty good job. High recommend if you love the original books.

Emmy the Robot by Dominic Cellini

This is my current favorite webcomic. Full-stop. I'm a massive fan of robots, and this comic scratches that itch so hard that it's become a rash. The entire atmosphere of it, from the characters to the story, gives me such a warm feeling that I haven't felt since I was a kid. It feels like the lost Pixar movie I've never seen but's always been with me. I might be overselling it a bit, but the point still stands that I love it. The only minor nitpick I might have is it takes a little bit to get to the real conflict, since the first 50 issues, give or take, are mostly just setup and slice-of-life. Though, I personally don't mind that. Huge recommend for pretty much everyone. If it doesn't seem interesting to you, I don't know what to say, man. Can't help you...

So...How'd I do?
