So, I suppose this is a comic of the web variety. It features OOTS-style stick figures, as I am far too lazy to come up with a style of my own. Aiming to update it every 2-3 days, but knowing me that could fall apart (I have a small buffer though).

Comments of absolutely any sort are welcome and encouraged. Hope you enjoy it!

I like it, it had some good jokes and for the most part the art worked out well, although it seems to me that the hair is a bit unnatural and,... big.

I'm kind of jaded against most of the fancomics on these boards, as most of them tend to be short-lived and terrible...but this one was actually really good. I hope you can keep it up.

EDIT: That's not to say that the art couldn't use a little improvement, but it's still pretty good. And art isn't really the most important part of a comic to me. All I care about is that it's not another bland OOTS clone.

Yeah, hair is not my strong suit. Maybe you could just pretend they are all hippies or something.

Nope, sorry, written him out of the comic, never seeing him again.

Thanks! And the rest of you as well. Truly appreciated.

Decided to put up the next two at the same time, since #002 is somewhat lower on the funny scale. Hope you enjoy them both though. Once again, comments are welcome and encouraged!

Good question! It was a slow process for the first one as I had to create all the templates and such from scratch, and was still learning my way around Inkscape (Making Kelana's body not look horribly disfigured took me a while). Now that I have all that stuff and have gotten into the swing of it though, I would say maybe...two to three hours. It can be hard to judge since I do not always do it in one go, and I spend a lot of time having mental blocks.

Once again, thank you all heaps, great to know people are enjoying these! Here is #004. [Insert something about comments and the encouragement thereof here]

Dysfunctional #004: What People Are Made Of

Also, should anyone ever feel the pressing urge, I made one of those nifty banner thingies, as seen in my signature.

Wow, this is actually really clever. I'm not too crazy about Kel or Jade, but the other two are pretty interesting. I loved comic#2. It reminded me of Calvin and Hobbes. 4 was pretty good, too.

For pony!

The last one was the best. I love the orc-guy. He is my favorite character. And, like others said, this is like a sitcom in comic form. It is awesome. Keep it up.

Thank you all guys, glad #004 went down well. And these next strips will be good news for those who like the green guy. That having been said, here is #005.
