The characters look absurd. Their limbs are too thick, their feet are too short, their hands are weird-shaped with fat fingers and five digits each. Every character's left eye seems to be the exact same size as the right. And their heads are all bizzar, non-circular shapes. It isn't even consistant: one character's head is shaped completely different from another's!
And what, pray tell, are those rediculous protrusions in the middle of their faces??
I know right, what ARE those hideous bumpy things between there eyes?
Hee hee, I am in awe of your sarcasm skills. This gave me a good laugh. (or it would have if I could laugh and not be discovered as not doing my homework)
Uh, hopefully you're being sarcastic. In case you're not, you don't have to watch the comic if you don;t like it.
That's just sad. I can see you now; you're watching a horror movie and you'll ask the guy sitting next to you, "oh my god, please tell me vampires aren't real!"

He got it wrong, easy enough to do with sarcasm on the internet, no need to jump him.

ROFL! Nice one, Hydro. And here I thought it was gonna be a troll post, from the title.
It's just too bad I didn't think of it first... :(

I personally didn't even think the wink-smiley should be necessary, but I suppose one can never be completely sure whether a post is completely in fun or half-serious.
Yeah thats one thign that always bugged me about communicating via text, it's normally near impossible to distinguish between sarcasm and seriousness.

While I must admit that I don't find the art aesthetically pleasing, I think it is done intentionally: you can see a lot of skill in what's being done, and it seems pretty clear that a lot of those decisions on aesthetics were likely quite intentional.
My speculation is that it was done purposely to give a certain level of discomfort, and to also set it aside visually

(and, perhaps, to give the characters a more insect-like appearance? I put this in spoilers because, if my guess is right, it'd be a major spoiler. I get the feeling that they're actually insect-like creatures in a mini-world.)

We still miss you bro.
You mean the line about the 'ridulous protusions in the middle of their faces' didn't give it away?

You know, I saw the title, and thought I'd pop in and throw out a compliemtary "Let's see YOU do better, punk" and a good draw-and-quartering. I love sarcasm at this level.

I thought of that when I saw that fact that their world was forged by FRICKIN' ELVIS PRESLEY!

Heh, man you really had me going there. I saw the title and started reading, and I was just thinking "OMG! this little punk..... oooooooo HA HAHAHA HA!"
I personally didn't even think the wink-smiley should be necessary, but I suppose one can never be completely sure whether a post is completely in fun or half-serious.
Yeah the smiley should have definetively give it away, not to mention "five digits" and "different head shapes"...Shall I really disgrace myself and admit that I still needed to read the thread and reread the original post to get it?
But taking that in account- your thread succeeded exactly
But it's sometimes really hard to get sarcasm on a written text when you don't have nonverbal signs - and not being an english native makes it not easier. So nobel prize for the one inventing the smilies.

Man your Nick and signature tell that you have humour sense... It's obviously sarcastic

Yeah, sometimes when you read something on the Internet you dont know if it is provocation, sarcasm or, what's wars, serious post. Better to be sure :D

I'm so confused.... who's being sarcastic and who isn't?

well I don't like the art either and saying 'then just don't read it' is annoying as well... it was a new thing to the website so im sure alot of people read it and didnt enjoy something about it , or else they loved it... I for one was disappointed and will take stick figures over the new comic anyday
