I didn't stop reading until everyone here pointed out that it sucks now, and then I stopped and thought about it and realised 'yeah actually it really does'.*

Hey, I never said Viruscomix sucked. I still read it, and it's sometimes funny, I'm just saying it's very wordy.

She's talking 'bout CAD*. And I like subnormality. It's not funny, but a lot of effort has been put in.

Oh right, it was because she said [quote="Kimra"]I didn't stop reading until everyone here pointed out that it sucks.../quote], that I thought she meant she gave up on a Subnormailty comic halfway through, because that's sort of plausible.

I still read CAD...It's not my favorite webcomic by far, but he updates pretty regularly and they are usually kinda funny. I still prefer his video game comics to his story arc comics, though.

It's still on my RSS, because I always remember how funny it used* to be and I live in hope of a return.

*seriously it was, there are some great classics in there.

He has gems, that midget artist. Chef brian comics always made me laugh. They don't have much the second time around, but they were good the first time being read. He's really just coasting right now because he is known. He doesn't need to improve anything except his merch selling abilities.

Tim Buckley says that he was passed out drunk when he came up with Chef Brian and posted it online. Those were pretty funny comics.

I dunno he did some funny jokes but it's too hit or miss to really devote myself to reading it regularly. For me, anyway.

I concur. He does nothing for me, not even a slight tingle of amusement, or even surreal appreciation. I skip those comics faster than I skip the unfunny life ones.

Although I dislike Chef Brian, I do enjoy Twisp and Catsby.

Isn't Twisp and Catsby from a different comic altogether?

Because talent goes a long way towards making something enjoyable.

I've never really like Cyanide and Happiness (that's what we're talking about, right?), although a few of them are funny. Ironically, it's what led me to SMBC in the first place (I got here from a link from Explosm several years ago).
