Delay: Heroes of Crash
Do I seem aggrivated to you? can't imagine why....
Maybe it's becuase my computer sucks... Or Rather... Internet Explorer Sucks...
I just spent the last two weeks writing my first and grandest review, and then it was gone... Was it Blogspot? was it Internet explorer? I dunno... But explorer decided to just CRASH! and It's all gone. I did a lot of work and it's gone...
POINTLESS! GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
I may need a break or something. Apperently I'm not destined to do a grand and in depth review just yet. So I'll stick to newbie rants for the frikkin' time being. Newbie rants and One Page Wonders...
God... So much wasted work... Is there no Justice for a writer?
No Quote today... Just my rage...

One Page Wonder: Questionable Content
Don't worry! Despite the title of the comic, everything is safe! I just wanted to point out this one comic page of Questionable content. Right Here:
The Story itself is clever, long running, and despite being entirly about real life with little to no variations to time or reality. I think sometimes people get tired. Considering Mr. Jacques has been doing this for 6 years now; updating monday monday to friday with little to no slip-ups, Being tired may very well be likely. Or maybe his joke pool is running low. Considering he's been doing this for 6 years, one is bound to run out of material for a little bit.
For some reason I thought most people used ancient material again. Many aren't likely to remember ti anyway unless they just archeive binged. In Mr. Jacques's case, he attempted to be totally original and I commend him for that. Unfortunately, The strip was as unfunny as the character's joke (I forget his name an d the cast page got lost inthe site upgrade.).
The strip usually focuses on pop-colture references, references to indie music, indie culture, and sarcasm. Or the characters themselves. And sarcasm. I didn't get a good 1/3 of the jokes becuase they were mostly about indie music and indie culture. Once it got to the characters, I got a lot more into it. But for today's comic, it was neither sarcasm, nor indie stuff, nor anything. It just seemed childish. A sad attempt at visual humor, perhaps? It sounded like they were going to have a nice snarking match about global warming or politics. Oh well.
The Next strip is a little funnier and the next one had a punchline that had me laughing for quite a bit.
Looks like he's getting his groove back, mehopes.

Now that's Comedy. Also, here's a new challenge, take any quote I put on the bottom and put it out of context. Consider it a writing exercise. Put your thoughts into the comments while you're at it.

NEWS FLASH: HUMANS ROCK!
NEWS FLASH: I have faith in humanity again!
Okay, not really, that'll never change, but my view of them is slightly more positive. After all, Mr Paulsen of Precocious did this:
I just have to show my appreciation. This is exactly what the doctor ordered my friend.

Calling Card
Okay, screw the review, I suppose now is as good a time as any to reveal my Webcomicritic calling cards: FANART!
Mimickery is the highest form of flattery they say, so I'm drawing the characters of the webcomics I review out of respect (or when I get to Ctrl+Alt+Del, to show off what a talentless cad Mr. Buckley is...). Respect or mocking, whichever comes first really.
So here is the Housepets picture:
And the Precocious picture:
In honor of his Birthday, I shall do an official review of Joshua Winthrop's Heroes of C.R.A.S.H. It's good stuff, I suggest you guys look it up.
I got no quote today, sorry.
