Do you guys like webcomics? What do you think is the best site to host a webcomic? Any favorite webcomics worth sharing?
Do YOU make a webcomic, or have you in the past? If so, I want to see!
I'm considering doing a webcomic in the (not so near) future, so I think it's nice to get a little feedback here. It will help me determine the path of my storyline's future.

I like webcomics. I don't know the best hosting site, but I have seen some people use a specific theme on tumblr to make a webcomic on. I follow several webcomics that I find good(Im not gonna include Homestuck cause it's pretty popular anyway) www.monsterpop.mayakern.com/pages.php?page=0001 This one is kinda like a slice of life, but with monsters www.avasdemon.com/pages.php?page=0001 I'm not quite sure how to explain this one, but it's good and has pretty art. I think a good explanation is that some people are possessed by demons that were once part of a great army, and these demons must make a pact with the living being they were with in order to form back into an army and defeat a guy known as Titan. Some things are a bit more complicated than that I think dream-scar.net/?id=1 This one also has monsters in it, but it's more of a fantasy/actiony kind of thing. Also has really good art gunnerkrigg.com/?p=1 This ones art gets better as the comic moves along, it is also pretty long. It's got fantasy and mystery elements to it supernormalstep.com/?p=8 This one is about a girl who accidentally gets stuck in a world of magic and she is trying to get home. It's got a lot of action and some superhero elements to it olympusoverdrive.com/index.php?id=14 This one is about the greek gods playing a game to see who gets to rule olympus. It's pretty good and creative Sorry I'm not so good at explaining thing, but those are the webcomics I follow and like. As for my own webcomics, I made a small manga for ScriptFrenzy back in 20012 and it sucked so much. It was called Time and Space and can be found in a folder on my deviantart. I plan to start a webcomic when I go back to college in the fall. It will basically be a comic version of Odd 4 and continue with more stories when I finish up the fanime. I feel that the comic version will be less time consuming to get out than animating. (Odd 4 will still finish after 6 episodes and will have a sort of distinct end. I'd also love to see whatever you come out with as a webcomic! |

Ohhhh I love webcomics!! I find the best site to share them is smackjeeves! My favorite webcomic of all time is Warrior U! it's set in medieval times, the main character being a wanna-be bard, Finn. It's really funny, clever, and creative, and has a sort of Ed Edd n Eddy feel to the art style (I think). My second favorite webcomic is probably BFF. I don't want to spoil anything but it's pretty gay, that's all I'll say. |

A site that's pretty fresh is Inkblazers.com (formerly MangaMagazine which was hard as hell to join LOL). But now that it's pretty stable, they've opened it to the public and I have no doubt it'll be more popular than smackjeeves because if you update enough you have the opportunity to become a premium member, which means you earn money for your weekly comic. owo (There's stuff like, you have to submit 15 pages a month I think? So it's for the serious artists who would be able to be in the pro field, but I'm totally going to draw it all out and just submit there when I get around to finishing, because I want it published LOL). If you join there, let me know, or come follow me~! I have to recheck the criteria for the earning potential again because it's been a year since I looked into it and it may have changed but, it's worth a look site wise regardless. This list is from 2013 but it may help you out: cat-nine.net/top-4-best-free-webcomic-hosting-sites/ |

But now that I hear this... I am ecstatic because it sounds like a really good plan for me. When I join, I will let you know. I just have to finish this darned movie project first. lol |

Agreed with schribbit that SmackJeeves is a great site. It's easy to use, there's so many options, it rarely has downtime. You can even buy upgrades and get your comic in an advertiser's slot for a year. Some of my favorite webcomics that still update: The Hues -- Post-apocalyptic magical girls! When She Was Bad (Mature Content) A superhero story from the villain's point of view. Mystery Babylon -- Having a hard time describing this one. It's a fantasy world set a thousand years after the Apocalypse on Earth. |
