PBF is firmly in the "shows promise" category for me.
I wonder, do any comics nerds love PBF? Or any other web-comics (Achewood, or XKCD for example)? To me it seems kind of like they are not engaged with the last century or so of comics. This isn't a criticism. It's just that they seem to appeal most to people who don't read other (i.e. print) comics.
Maybe I'm wrong.
