I know there are a few Sluggites out there, and after being on the SDMB, I know that there are probably more than a few potential Sluggites.
Read Sluggy Freelance - the best daily web comic out there. Here is a link if you want to take a look at a classic Sluggy adventure, which parodies Star Trek and Alien, among other things.
Doing parodies of Star Trek and Alien is old hat–but Sluggy parodies both at the same time! That’s my favorite sequence–though the Stormbreaker Saga (The Vowelless One) comes close.
I sometimes accuse my coworkers of going into “ferret shock” from all the blinking lights on the equipment…
I’ll gladly bump this back up, since Sluggy Freelance is probably my favorite webcomic.
To avoid making this look too much like a pump, I’ll also mention College Roomies from Hell!!! (the three exclamation points stand for “quality”) and Nukees (for some odd reason, its URL of http://www.nukees.com seems to be corrupting this message when enclosed in vB tags…must be the radiation), which battle it out for a close second and third, in my estimation.
Wendy is too new (to me, at least) for me to have decided whether I really like it or not. I expect that roughly half of the population, however, will be attracted by…ahem…a couple of things about it
I’m not sure what my favorite sequence is. Probably either Torg in The Dimension of Pain or The Slug-Files (favorite lines: Mulder: The truth is out there! Scully: The truth is you suck!)
Come to think of it, Torg’s Black Heart was hilarious, too.
PRAISE SLUGGY! PRAISE SLUGGY! ALL PRAISE THE GLORIUOS SLUGGY FREELANCE! [sub]And be scared as hell of the cute little lop-rabbit. Oooooh.[/sub] :eek:
I want Zoe under my Xmas tree. Wearing Saran-wrap, & nothing else, mind you.
The best and worst part of the comic is the fact that it doesn’t have a punch line everyday. This is good for making more entertaining stories with good plots, but it can make people who are visiting the sight for the first time think it is boring. I find it difficult to recommend this site to people because they go there and view the current days comic. There is no way you can get the full affect in just one day.
I missed the San Diego Comicon! I had planned to attend to get my belly signed by Pete, but real life got in the way, dammit! I had a friend who went, but his stomach was too hairy for them to sign (I think shirt-guy Tom has to sign all the men, and Pete only does the women. I mean, sign’s the female stomachs [a pretty scary concept at some of those conventions]). Didn’t even get a lousy t-shirt. Oh well, Xmas is just around the corner. Time for Bun-bun to put some serious work into shooting Santa down.
To date, I have 7 Sluggite converts that I know of. Does this mean I get to go to Sluggy heaven when I die?
Thanks Lucie. I’d never seen that comic before. It took me 6 days of free time at work to read from the beginning to now, but it was worth it. I’ve been looking for something else to read, and this did it. I don’t know why, exactly, but the idea of an evil, sadistic, mini-lop with a switchblade named Bun-Bun cracks me up. Thanks for the laugh.
