It’s like Abian meets Rice Boy…

Monday, October 29th, 2007

5ideways is an exercise in surrealism, but it takes a much darker and grittier angle than other comics in the same vein. 
The comic begins with the death (?) of the narrator and her replacement by a monster… and then it jumps right into her ex-boyfriend and his buddy (who also happens to be her ex-lover) [...]

Second Review: The Dreamland Chronicles

Sunday, July 15th, 2007

Seeing as it is Sunday again I think I would like to thank everyone who participated in so far in Caught Stealing Brains! I think so far it has been a success. Both from the aspect that everyone was able to contribute meaningfully, but also that the author seemed to more or less have a [...]

Review: Abian

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

Abian: Xenix-style

As usual, this review seems to contain spoilers and, well, I don’t want you to read them by accident! .. that and I like making people click links… : )

First Review: Abian

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

Hey all, it appears to be Sunday! As such I would like to get things going here, so our first comic up for review is:
 Abian
I first saw this comic on the Belfry Webcomic Index and found that it quickly became popular. Someone has also recently pimped it out on the Belfry’s tagboard, so I figured why [...]
