Welcome to the links section. Here we tip our hats to the outstanding web comics that have inspired us, guided us and made us laugh our asses off. However since KiM and Tanzy are different people (promise) we have different opinions, so we've decided to share them all with you.

For those of you interested in linking to us, click here or just scroll down for a banner and instructions.


Sluggy Freelance

By Pete Abrams and the Sluggy Crew.
Rated: PG (Safe for kiddies but they probably won't understand it)

Tanzy: Sluggy rules. It's ridiculously funny with a steady plot and complex characters, and GOBS of archives to keep you busy for weeks. And then you can read them again.

KiM: One of the oldest, and still the coolest web comics around. Humour with a healthy dose of wierdess.


Sinfest

By Tatsuya Ishida.
Rated: PG-13 (Contains occassional coarse language)

KiM: Go get your daily cultural satire with lovable characters.

Tanzy: Highly irreverent. I love it! Monique is dabomb.


Exploitation Now

By Michael Poe.
Rated: R (Contains coarse language, nudity and violence. All the good stuff)

Tanzy: Pretty damn messed up, but it's funny, and the art is good! That's all I need!

KiM: It's rude, crude and downright hilarious! Really odd combination of serious story, slapstick humour and damn fine art.

Note: Exploitation Now has run to conclusion, the site is still up and doesn't look to be shutting down any time soon, should you wish to see more of Poe's work he's got a new comic Errant Story which seems to be more structured.


Real Life

By Greg Dean.
Rated: G (It's safe, trust us.)

KiM: The life of geeks documented on the web. Sorta... gets bonus points for his other strip "The Forge" (link on his site) that's hosted by an online sword shop.

Tanzy: I've read, like, two strips. But they were funny! And I read all of The Forge, it was just keen.


8-Bit Theatre

By Brian Clevinger.
Rated: G (They're 8-bit sprites for crying out loud.)

Tanzy: Fighter may be stupid, but he's bad ass.

KiM: Don't be fooled, you don't have to play Final Fantasy to love this strip, I've never even seen the first few and I love it.


And of course, since we're tipping hats we should give you the opportunity to expose yourself to the dreaded Ye Olde Interdimensional Marketplace that has inspired many a strip. Be warned though that Wizards Online is a family site so you'll have to avoid swearing, flashing, etc or take it to another site, least you suffer the wrath of the Marshals. It's so family infact that you can't say 'analysis'.

Wizards Online Community

Owned by Wizards of the Coast
Rated: PG-13 (Some violence, nothing vaguely resembling sex.)
