The Best Show on WFMU => Dear Tom => Topic started by: Bernard on March 05, 2010, 01:29:16 PM

As a big Achewood fan, I think Chris Onstad would be a fun TBS guest. Has he ever been discussed being on the show? I know he's based out of Portland, but I think he'd fit in well in-studio for an hour or two.
-
This would be great, seeing as how Achewood is the only funny webcomic that has ever existed.

I totally disagree (http://www.pbfcomics.com/).

Me too! (http://www.harkavagrant.com/)
-
all right, that may have been a bit hyperbolic, but in my experience, the vast majority of webcomics are really terrible and self-indulgent, and Achewood blows them all out of the water.
-
But what about the one with the stick figures that talk about science and how great it is to be a nerd on the internet?

by standard you mean "the ground floor," right? cuz the only thing worse is Penny Arcade.

I am a huge Achewood fan, but thank you for pointing me to this! I was laughing my ass off and being generally unproductive for a solid half-hour because of your link.

That is EXACTLY what happened to me when someone else showed it to me.
-
The Perry Bible Fellowship is the best.
But when you've finished laughing at PBF, I also urge you to check out "Hark, a Vagrant!" which I linked to above (www.harkavagrant.com). I find it very funny (even though it's by a CHICK, ew gross!).

agreed. this has taken up the better part of my lunch break. the strip, just, feels good.
-
Agreed-- I somehow forgot about PBF when I posted my earlier comment. And, though it shames me to admit it, I've gone to several of the Penny Arcade Expos, not because I have any great love for the comic, but because it's in my home turf and because I like videogames.

i know what you mean! i hate penny arcade, but the music scene i'm in always has shows at PAX.
the thing about achewood is i've been reading it for like 6 years 8 years, and its at the point where i can't even fall behind anymore. if i forgot to read it for a month, i'll have like 5 comics to catch up on.
also i'd like to introduce everyone to pictures for sad children

edit: forgot how old i was. ugh.
-
I have been meaning to say...
Hark! A Vagrant = Winner!
Thanks for that one Martin. I had never heard of it before.
-
Yeah, H!AV is about the only one I really follow anymore. It's about the only one that I can think of that is just completely devoid of snarkiness/video game references.
I doesn't hurt that she's gotten me interested in history and classic literature.
-
I admit to liking Cat & Girl (http://catandgirl.com/) as well. Sometimes it is pretty out there. Other times brilliant.
And this shirt (http://www.topatoco.com/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=TO&Product_Code=CG-ELEPHANTS&Category_Code=CG) cracks me up.

Loved this new one. She obviously loves Lost, but I don't, and this strip sums up the show for me in a weird way.

The Perry Bible Fellowship is fantastic. There's a book out that I picked up in the library's graphic novel section. I wasn't even aware of it until then.

Martin, I think it is just you and I who don't care for Lost. What is really lame is that I named my dog Hurley after Frank Hurley, the photographer from the Endurance expedition but when someone asks me his name, nine out of ten times I get, "Oh, after the guy on Lost, right?" Grrrrrr!
That comic made me laugh too. LOVING Hark! A Vagrant.

Does the tenth person out of ten say "oh, like the Minutemen drummer?"
And yeah, Kate Beaton is the greatest. Her Mystery Solving Teens (http://harkavagrant.com/index.php?id=218) comics are fantastic.

Only one friend actually said that. So now, when I want to be cool, I will say that he is named after George. Why not? It's fun to make stuff up.
