I pretty much only read Achewood.  I'll catch up on Perry Bible Fellowship every few weeks and take an occasional gander at Cat and Girl.  Nothing else much grabs me.

Some while ago, Perry Bible Fellowship stopped making sense to me.  And then sometime after that it stopped working in Mozilla.  So it's all over between us.

PBF is about as hit-or-miss as it gets; the hits hit hard, the misses miss by a mile. I, too, have become somewhat disillusioned. These days, when I think of it, I reread the archives of A Lesson is Learned But the Damage Is Irreversible, which reminds me of PBF if PBF attempted to have a narrative... and was in a different art style... and was deeper. ... So really it has nothing to do with PBF at all, but it reminds me of it for some reason and is also very good.

In the I cannot look away category is Bleedman Comics.
http://www.snafu-comics.com/

The artist David Stanworth aka Bleedman awkwardly crosses over several kids cartoons and other media from the Powerpuff Girls to Invader Zim to Dexter's Lab to many others in a heady blend of pathetic attempts at humor and laughable attempts at angsty melodrama. And girls getting spanked. And In Fight Powerpuff Girl panty shots. It's terrible yet he has many fans. I check in occasionally to see what dpeths of preversion he has sunk to.

Also in the adult-ifying kids shows category (in the Creepy Fan-Comic Based On Some Forgettable Piece of Timeslot Filler sub-category) is this

Of Mice And Mayhem A really way way way too involved Rescue Rangers fan-comic full of angst, espionage, romance, angst and angst that runs to 230 pages and is filled with dialogue like this

Yeah, and Pete Townsend was busted for child porn because he was "researching" to fight against it.

Dang, say what you will about Onstad, at least he knows the difference between "your" and "you're".

Oh, the Bleedman comics are ridiculously terrible. I think it's another case of someone with decent but marginal talent getting reinforced on their weaknesses: in this case, someone telling ol' Bleeder that his plotting was SOOOOO GOOOOOD when in fact his only strength is "has a decent art style, sort of."

Bleedman's comic is funny because while there are disturbing bits, it's the over the top angsty melodrama that makes it a winner for me. I laugh at moments where I'm supposed to be shocked, horrified, saddened and vice versa at the humorous moments.

Here's the "cover" of his PPG/Dexter's Lab comic that got him some notice.
Basically characters are a few years older. Dexter for instance is kind of femmy looking. And Bleedman develops an ultra cliche relationship between him and his version of Blossom.

Plus, Dexter's rival Mandark is now a raving kill-crazy psycho.

Here's the flashback to one of the unintentionally hilarious moments in this comic.LOOK OUT DEE DEE

OH THE TRAGED-HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

HA HA HA HA HA HA

HA HA...heh...heh...HA HA HA HA

Oh, it's been awhile since I saw that. I forgot how humorously hamfisted it was.

COMPUTERRRR!!!

God, it reminds me of the end of Revenge of the Sith-Monsters From Beyond Pluto, or whatever EPISODE III was actually called, when the new Darth Vader wakes up, and in his new Stephen Hawkings voice, goes, "What about Padme. Is she alright. Noooooooo."

Normally I find the wacky links, but by God this is something I never thought could exist. I am flabbergasted.

That bit made me angry  but also almost giggle at the same time.

Picture Darth Vader doing the little potty dance 5-6 year olds do when they have to go BAD.

Yeah, that kind of giggle.

hmmm.
one thing I'm -not- ashamed to read is anything on this website:
scott mccloud
It is sometimes a bit pretentious, but it's really well drawn. and stuff. Reading it makes me want to go get some "arty" comics from the local comic store.


Speaking of which, do any of you enjoy print comics?
I liked: Maus, Maus II, Jimmy Corgan (The Smartest Kid on Earth), and Hey, Wait!

I just passed the comic store yesterday, so that stuff was on my mind. I wish I could draw, but I gave up trying at an early age. so my drawing never progressed past the 5th grade level.
