    Default Blank It!

    This thread is about the comic Blank It. Two guys, just hanging out in an infinite white space, where random things happen thanks to their imagination. One of these things is taking off their pants.


    Old post: A few months back I got into reading a webcomic that started out with two guys hanging out in a universe that was completely white space at first and slowly got filled up with random new stuff thanks to their imagination (including the shovel beam, giant flying hollow insect-boats piloted by smaller insects piloted by smaller insects and a purple sea).

    I forgot the name of the comic though, so I am completely unable to find it again without help. Anyone know what this one is called?

    Would it be Blank It, by any chance?
    I use black for sarcasm.


    Call me Rose, or The Rose Dragon. Rose Dragon is someone else entirely.

    If you need me for something, please PM me about it. I am having difficulty keeping track of all my obligations.

    In sense of story and the whole philosophical sense inherent in it, yes. 1/0 was amazing. I find Blank It to be more amusing (at times) and artistically/creatively appealing though.

    EDIT: Edited first post to make this thread about the comic, considering I dinna see one before.

    Went on an archive binge yesterday -- thanks to this thread --, and I find it quite entertaining, in an "expect the unexpected" gag-a-week kind of way.

    However, if there is any overarching plot-line here, it must mean that I fumbled my Spot checks big time, because I just don't see it.

    I don't think there is. As far as I can see the point of Blank It is to start with two dudes in the midst of nothingness and then build the world from there, all without taking anything too seriously.

    This prettymuch hits the nail on the head, yeah. Most little "plotlines" I've read through weren't really big or played a part in a bigger deal.

    Am I the only one to have a major problem with its RSS feed? Every time it updates I receive 20+ old updates along with the new one.

    I'm not getting that in Google Reader for Blank It, although I've seen that problem occasionally with other RSS feeds.
