Just an addendum to my earlier article, My Own Precious , here is a list of online comics that one can peruse freely. Some are already published, but have kept their archives free online.. Most, however, are a labour of love on the behalf of the author/artist.
These comics are what have appealed to me specifically, and what I consider to be the best of the best. Not everyone would agree with me.
* Megatokyo by Fred Gallagher - Story of two Americans "trapped" in Japan. Complete with zombies, magical girls, Good versus Evil, and Sony accessories that wear really short school skirts. Also available are Volume 1/4 for those of you who prefer the actual hard copy versions.
* Sokora Refugees by Segamu and Melissa Dejesus - School girls, busty elves, not so busty furries and the ever evil bishie looking guy somewhere in the background. A funny and interesting read, with really great art. Also available is Volume 1 for the hard copy.
* Inverloch by Sarah Ellerton - Dakors, elves, thieves, sorcery, and the fate of the world. Beautiful art direction and a lovely story. Also available are Volume 1/2 for the hard copy.
* Earthsong by Lady Yates – A host of worlds, remnants, Good versus Evil, and a beautiful young woman with no memories. How could you not like this?
* Lancaster, Ghost Detective by Phil Gibson – a not-so-human cast of Detectives, Psychics, Evil Maniacs, Ghosts, and Regular Joes.. Did I mention the ghosts?
* Darken by Kate Ashwin/Mike Foulks – A really good story with rougher artwork, but nonetheless good. Again, the Good versus Evil theme with minions of the underworld..and those are the good guys.
* Applegeeks by Mohammad Haque/Ananth Panagariya – Beautiful colors, wacky cast, exceptional art. Dude builds robot. Robot gets stolen, taken to Japan. Dude gets robot back. Oh, and the robot is a hot chick.
* Dungeons & Dorks by Artmonkey/Richard M./Jenn – A really smart and funny take on D&D.
These are just a few of my favorites. These are also some of what I consider to be the best artwork and story lines out there today. These artists and writers are straining against their boundaries while creating fantastic stories and artwork.
So, if you like comic books and fantasy, please check these guys out. It’s worth an afternoon read.
