Comics - what are you reading?

Oh yes, let's talk about that too. For me webcomics are pretty much the same catgeory as regular comics. The authors are just more often doing it ouf of a hobby or they simply don't have enough money to print it. There are also some really rad nsfw webcomics out there, which I doubt will be printed anytime soon lmao.

Didn't Sunstone start out as a webcomic?

I count webcomics as just as valid for comic discussion as printed comics.  I read more webcomics because they're more diverse in story telling and art style, also more accessable.

I could sing the praises of webcomics all day.  Some of my favourites are Demon of the Underground, No End, Minor Acts of Heroism, Autophobia and I'm keeping a close eye on Raven King because I really love the art style.

Ty for answers

I asked because here comics don't exist. I could order them and whatnot, of course, but as for them being available in stores, there's none.

Anywho, as for webcomics there's a lot I'm watching at the moment. I've recently started using Tapas (Tapastic?) and it's great, but they censor sex which is annoying lol. On this site I'll mention a few I'm watching:

Husband And Husband - I found this because I'm watching their Youtube channel, they're pretty awesome. There's no nsfw stuff.


Mondo Mango - I really like the drawing style of this one and his sense of humor. Again no nsfw stuff.


Heavy Horns - A more serious one and with some nsfw stuff here and there (though like I said, Tapas censors everything so no big deal really).


The Young Protectors - Superheroes! And lead is a gay guy! Pretty awesome. Nsfw stuff is only available to patreons.


Theurgy - This one is very new, but looks good and I hope they keep at it.


Demon of the Underground - One of the more mature ones. Lots of humor, but even though not directly mentioned, there are some really dark themes going on here.

There's others too, but I need to sort my bookmarks and see which ones are dead and which are still going. There's a lot of new webcomics starting constantly, but only a few manage to keep at it for long periods of time. There was one I found some time ago, with amazing visuals, which was abandoned when I found it... very sad   Eh. Tried to find it but I can't remember... Oh well...

Yesterday, I spoke to a comic book author called Ryan K. Lindsay when he came into the bookstore I work at. He has apparently written a title called Negative Space, if anyone knows that one, and has also worked on comics for My Little Pony, lol.

I'm in the same place as you with Rat Queens. I started off loving it but it got boring after awhile and I never went back to it. 

I used to exclusively read X-Men comics, until the House of M storyline & beyond, which was terrible and took Marvel far too long to walk back from.  IMO Marvel mainstream comics have not been good for a long time, there are outliers like Runways or Ms Marvel but every time I try to dip back into the Avengers or X-Men, something stupid is happening, or they are good for a little but and then something stupid happens to ruin them, like in Avengers Academy.

IMO more DC series than Marvel are consistently good, kinda like the reverse of their respective film Universes. 

Everyone should be in love with Gail Simone. She is one of the best modern writers. If you see her name on something, read it, it'll be good.  

Not an ongoing series, but I'd recommend people pick up as much of Secret Six has they can. Hands down the best team up book.



Question:
If you read individual issues, do you buy them digitally or as physical copies? I tend to buy individual issues digitally because they are cheaper and I don't have room to store them, but I buy physical copies of trades because I only be trades of series that I'm really into. 

I just finished catching up on what I have of Rat Queens (everything before the soft reboot), and then Harley Quinn. I'm still pretty behind on HQ, but I usually wait until the bound versions come out because comics are expensive. Some other favorites, as mentioned before, are: Young Avengers and Ms. Marvel.

I've also been reading some comics that I picked up cheap at a used book store. I got the first bound volume of the new(ish?) Birds of Prey. I love it already. (I'm a big Poison Ivy fan.) I also got a couple of issues of something called Red Sonja, because I liked the cover art, but I have yet to read them. Also a handful of assorted 50 cent comics I have yet to sort through.

Um... Lumber Janes is cute, but I don't love it. Can't really think I've anything else (at least that I've read multiple copies of.) Oh, I got all 18 issues of Young Liars Club on sale a few years ago, but I stopped pretty early in because it was just too disturbing. (I looked up the ending and I'm now very glad I didn't read them.)

As for webcomics, I mostly just read the humorous ones. I read Ava's Demon for a while, and Sister Claire, but I'm so bad at keeping up that I lost the plot. I also really like fantasy graphic novels, like Bone and Castle Waiting.

I'm currently reading How to Be a Werewolf

I'm quite enjoying it so far. It's good to see a female protag just dealing with her own problems and a number of the characters are LGBT. I like the art style as well which is a huge bonus.

Thank you so much for recommending this. I just read the entire thing and am now sad because Iḿ all up to date. It is really enjoyable.

Couple of webcomics I got into recently:
Strong Female Protagonist

Which is about a Super Hero who has been fighting crime since she was a teenange but gets fed up and unmasks herself so she can go to college.

Alfie
Which is basically a fantasy porn comic with a great plot. 

Wait what? I mean I am big fan of the Runaways but Karolina is a lesbian there is no way that would... wait that worked with GoG actually I wouldnt be surprised if they change the cast or her sexuality, at least Xavin is not there for making them cis.
