It was about 2003(?) that I first picked up Fur Will Fly. I didn't even continue it after I finished binging because just where I got caught up, the artist had to leave.

Spyro Advance
Probably around 2000-2001 since year of the dragon just came out.
Also pretty much anything on the list of top100webcomics or something similar that

I'm ashamed to say my first webcomic was Jack.

So my sister discovered webcomics around the time we got a computer for Christmas and the Internet was still very new to people. She kept calling me over to look at her favorite one, a gay comic called Boy Meets Boy.

"What? OH GODDAMNIT SIS I DON'T WANNA SEE YOUR GAY SEX COMIC LEAVE ME ALO- Huh? What's that link say? RPG World? Click it."

Laughed for hours and hours reading it. Helped that my friend got me into Final Fantasy games at the time.

Megatokyo

forgive me. I was young and foolish and it was popular.

I think it was either C&H or Penny Arcade.

Might have been Megatokyo, might have been Ansem Retort. Which still has a few jokes I love.

>>77488286

The creator, Ian, works on Steven Universe now

also I'm pretty sure he's plowing Rebecca Sugar

>>77486239
Lackadaisy when it first started, completely forgot about it after quitting deviantart

>>77490314
I believe that's my answer as well, although it's been a very long time. It might have been; what was the one about a bunch of linux help desk people? It was also not very good.

But, yeah, I read Megatokyo up until the original writer was pushed off so the artist could, whatever the fuck he did.

Sabrina Online because it was one of the first ones to come out.

Stopped reading when she went to work for Zig Zag, because it was fucking stupid.

>>77490444
User Friendly? Yeah that was also pretty lousy, it was just the novelty of "it's a comic strip but it's about things only WE care about!" which was a big deal in 1998.

Bob And George. I was introduced to it by a friend when we were both in 4th grade. I used to read that shit all the time. I kinda miss sprite comics. Does anyone remember Drshnaps?

>>77486239

People on 4chan read my shitty sprite comics?

>>77486239
why the fuck are those furries so slutty?

And to answer your question OP, Bob and George was my first Webcomic. Looking back now, it's shit.

>>77491103
Clicks.

Duh.

For me, i think it was either vg cats or 8bit final fantasy. The fond days of when flash animation was booming. Incidentally, who remembers LegendaryFrog?

>>77486346
He's still around, he just refuses to draw this time for no apparent reason.

Last time was due to the dead of his brother.

Men In Hats.
I thought it was really funny when I was 12.

>>77486239
>I used to know the girl that made the OP comic

Sprite comics never again.

Speaking of it my first was probably something sprite related psyguy wrote.

Josh Lesnick's Wendy (the 1999 pre-reboot one) and RPG World.

And between IJQ and superhappy I was banking on superhappy to have a successful comic career.

I was right. :)

Anders Loves Maria, which coincidentally was the first webcomic I regularly read to have ended.

I think it was Ruins of the Fourth Wall. Author stopped making comics years ago and there's no more evidence of its existence after Psyguy's pissbaby tantrum in tearing down his website and taking a ton of comics down with it.

>>77492209

You may be thinking MUTE, which the OP comic isn't.

>>77491010
Too many Zs on the internet.

>>77492435
Them's fightin' words.

The earliest webcomics I remember reading were Dan & Mab's Furry Adventures, Yet Another Stupid Sonic Sprite Comic, and CTRL+ALT+DEL.

I had no taste as a youth.

Looks like the same author made it, though. Word bubbles are similar. This one was probably ripped from one of dozens nondescript group "projects."

Either Pawn or freefall.

I'm still a bit disappointed that Pawn will probably never update again and they'll never get out of that dungeon.

This lovely one.

>>77492566
No, I think you were right originally. I thought you were going by characters, and the orange cat is originally from MUTE, by another author.

>>77492688
Oh, yeah, you're right. Zman made this one. I was thinking of the chick that did MUTE, yeah.

It's been a long time. It all blends together after a few years.

>>77492782
>>77492782

Z is trying to tie this one in to the same continuity as Bar'd and a select few others. A veritable "universe" I guess. Left behind the fancomics and tried to make something original, or at least as much as you can get with sprites. Z advertised another one coming up but so far, nothing. Typical, typical.

>>77492782
Zman is now just Z and is transgendered or something now.
The chick that did MUTE is Shard. I think she has a new comic out now too.

Megatokyo. Way back in Middleschool in like 01 or 02 in the 6th grade I started reading this til I dropped it some time in High-school (so before 08)

Before it became a mellow dramatic fest of bullshit this comic was hilarious as all hell.

Largo made this comic... Then the focus went full Piro and drama shit.

Also fun fact when I first went to the website the character section wasn't up.
It's been a decade since then...
Still no character section.

Been talking back and forth, I should probably say my first webcomic.

Bob and George. It still gets nostalgia points and it was the grandaddy sprite comic to be sure. The layout is pretty boring (even for a sprite comic) but I'll have to admit that I still find the writing mostly funny to this day.

Yeah. Not to mention he's super chill.

It was... a different time.

>>77494626

Ah, that was before my time probably. I found the comic during the tail end of its run; while George was being foisted around different timelines.

>>77494538
He went to school. Now he's back but he wants to work on his art skill some more before returning to Vreakerz. He is currently working on a short story.

>>77494663
I doubt even those who were around then remember me. I mostly lurked, occasionally shot the shit with the rest of the gang regarding plans for the AMAZING stories we'd tell with our recolor OCs, showed off a sprite sheet or two, and never actually got anywhere with it. I can't have been a regular for longer than a year.

It was a good time, though. Fun bunch of people, remarkably little drama, though I hear there was some if you knew where to look. Wish I still had the awful sprite sheets I made back then, if only for nostalgia's sake.

>>77494712
Yeah I get you. I'm still in a community that's kinda like that, though we're mostly on skype. We all do sprite comics and such for shits and giggles.

Actually he stopped working on the show a while ago. Most likely his pilot for CN got picked up.

Well bully for that. I still think sprites are a good way for artistically-inept writers to dip their feet in the comic-making pool and learn the basics. Shame about the associated stigma.

i know exactly how you feel. It's the same reason why I can't quit reading El Goonish Shive, DMFA, Misfile, and others!

I don't mind the stigma so much, but it is a shame. Maybe they'll bounce back some time in the future, but eh. We'll see.

I still use it to find comics with naked titties.

Man I dunno if it was my first but the one I'm recalling right now had a string of comics about a dude and his friend. He posted the comics on /mu/ sometimes... or the first comic he made was reposted on /mu/ alot back in... 2009-10 ish... I forgot it but it had cool art and a laid back vibe.

>>77493624
Yeah I think it stopped cause the writer and artist had a falling out and then it just went all over the place with legal bullcrap so he had to take the stuff down.

Dave Anez was my hero back in the day. I asked him about how he gets away with the copyright dealing and his response was this:
"For big corporations, like Capcom, the cost of a lawsuit is probably too
high to bother. Now, if I turned Roll turn a crack-whore who sold herself
to Bass for a quick hit... then they might send me a cease-and-desist. But
as long as the parody is fan-related, what's the harm?"

I started with vgcats myself after browsing the Nintendo forums around 2002-3, from there, quickly branched out, hit most vgrelated ones, and saw so many comics die over the years.

Konsekai: Swordwaltzer
Nine Shot Sonata
Alien Loves Predator
Chuggworth

Man, I used to read a lot of webcomics in highschool/college. Lot of bad ones too. Nowadays its just the old instinctive reads like Sam and Fuzzy and Ma3.

Slight freelance, circa 2000.

It was rather two kinds or BCB for me I remember that they were super popular and had ads on all sorts of sites I checked them out and started reading webcomcis but I have put that part of my life behind me

Prob read something before it, but the first one I read all the way through was fan boys when I was 12.

I can't remember what my first webcomic was.

It was some weird sci-fi furry comic that was kind of like Xenogears with anthros. At one point the protagonist warps to Earth and gets involved in the VHS/Beta conflict for a couple of chapters.

There was another chapter where the protagonist's best friend climbs down into the planet's lightless core and slumbers for eternity.

Sexy Losers, except it was called Thin H Line at the time. it disappeared after i'd been reading it for a year or so; not exactly sure at what point it resurfaced with the new name.

I can't remember the first but I think for a brief time I read this comic called Furthia High. It wasn't very good (even after the author rebooted the story).

I hung around the forums for a brief bit and Immelman was part of the community. Just about every general thread he started was bait and the most insolent way. He'd make threads about how terrible white people are and how everything would be better if we systematically killed off all white people. He was a shit and I don't know why the author put up with that shit.

I think furries were one of the biggest early adopters of the Internet, so it makes sense some of the first big webcomics involved anthros in one way or another.

The biggest one is while Linkara was developing Lightbringer he would roost in art critique threads. He was convinced that the secret to drawing good was just one special guideline, that the complexity of drawing could be reducted to a single rule. When people told him otherwise he would outright ignore them.

At one point one of the more prominent members of the community told him off for his naive idea of how to grow as an artist and he just deflected that criticism too. A few people came to his defense, which was unnecessary.

So a particularly bad Sprite Comic pops up. Other, marginally-better spriters try to give the guy criticism and he tells them to shove it up their ass, essentially. Flame war ensues.

As an MGS comedy comic this was surprisingly funny and full of feels. I do however fucking hate the art.

>>77490314
It was actually pretty cool at the time. People look at the original comics now and go "God, these jokes are generic as hell", but they were actually from back when parodying weeaboos was barely a thing (even South Park hadn't done a Japanese episode yet), so this comic focused around what if Japan actually worked the way year-2000 weebs thought it did was really rather novel. Coupled with a nice one-setting-two-perspectives setup and a joke every strip, and it's not hard to see why it got so popular.

Pity it went to hell though. It's pretty obvious that they ran out of jokes, and when one of the writers left to become a failed politician (seriously, he was such a bad politician), the story crapped up too.

Biz is just the shortform of a notorious troll's real name. I didn't want to say the full name because fuck if I bring that asshole to /co/ or 4chan. That fucker needs to stay away.

As for you, I have no idea who you could be but if we're going to swap stories of shitty webcomic communities, back when I was a member of keenspot there was this level 10 hipster named yeahduff. This guy didn't outright say he hated popular music but everytime someone brought up classic acts like the Beatles or Pink Floyd this fucker would be there to roll his eyes and sigh, "Yeaaaah, they're overrated."

One of my favourite quotes from yeahduff was, "Creativity cannot exist without capitalism. Art thrives only within the free market. I'll never listen to Broken Social Scene or any other Canadian musician. Bunch of socialists." (not verbatim)

Technically 8-Bit Theater was my first, but I took a break and never checked back. My other first is Gunnerkrigg Court.

First webcomic is Gunnerkrigg Court.

Picked it up early. Still read it today.

So many other comics I've dropped, but not GC.

>>77490844
same first here
could not be bothered to go find a panel to post with this

>>77513870
That's because GC is good. I only read like five nowadays. GC isn't one, but that's because I didn't really have the time to get into it when friends started suggesting it to me. Maybe when OotS or Dr. McNinja ends and I get a free slot in my daily morning check up.

>Kazerad of Prequel lurks basically every possible place where Prequel is discussed. He even has people help him locate discussions. Dude just really wants to talk to his audience.

I think that's kinda cool though. Dude needs a forum if he doesn't already have one, but creators that are actually willing to communicate with their fanbases are pretty neat. (they don't have to even follow advice or kowtow to fans or anything, just the fact they communicate)

What's this weird story about Linkara being more reasonable than other human beings?
What happened to the rest of CA that sunk a whole group of people beneath him?

Anon, were you ever a member of the forum? If so what was your name/a clue at least

>>77514078
To answer your first question, it's really more of the fact that's he's better at managing his own PR and doesn't SEEM get involved in drama.

To answer your second question, a combination of people leaving the site on less admirable terms with a few dashes of Twitter-styled social justice.

Probably Ctrl-Alt-Del, sadly. Started reading it because I didn't know any better, then later kept reading out of habit and morbid curiosity as to how much worse it could get. It should be pretty easy to guess which comic got me to finally stop reading it.

>>77486726
oh jesus this is prob my first...

I swear I didn't know what I was doing

>>77507047
Imsonicia was better.

>>77514400
I've spoken to the artist behind that (she has a new comic) and apparently she nor the writer had any idea what furries were before making that comic.

>>77502490
Kid Radd was so fucking good. Still holds up too, I was checking it out recently since undertale basically reminded me of "kid radd: the game".

My first webcomic would definitely be around 98 or 99, not sure which one it was, I remember the early PVP vs pennyarcade feuding (when they were actually about games), userfriendly being the dilbert of the internet and commonly listed in "Fun Placed To Go On The Web!!" articles, and actually using ms comic chat while jerkcity was new. tldr: im fucking ancient kill me

>>77486239

Oh gosh, I don't even remember.

Probably 8-bit Theater.

looks like it just ended in August? I thought it was pretty funny and well drawn for a furry comic.

>>77515439
>Last Daisy Owl strip was 2010 and not a conclusion or anything. It just stopped

It wasn't my first, but like EOI it was one of those which didn't wrap up which hurts in a special way when it ends.

>>77494887
he updated???? last time i checked i thought it was dead and he was doing reserve training or something.

>>77515477
But that means that the story never ended, and the Owls and Steve are still out there, still getting into crazy adventures and vomiting into mesh trash cans

We got a few random strips over the last year or so. I know, I was shocked too.

I loved Kidd Radd. it was pretty awesome as an 8 bit comic and had a pretty good story and characters.
And now I realized it ended more than a decade ago. wow...

>>77495470
remember webrings? that's how i tried to find comics.

I can't remember, but probably either Sluggy Freelance or 8 Bit Theater.

>>77495853
I loved this, I felt it was inspired by buffy but still pretty good. I think i saved a page that I really loved.

>>77486239
Most likely 8-bit theater. I miss it and go back to read a few pages every now and again.

>>77515135
Good lord I forgot all about TwoKinds.

Is the plot still a stagnant mess?

...wait it's still going ON?

>>77515681
Yes and Yes.
How far in did you get?

I always felt bad I didn't finish it. It was hilarious.

>>77506785
I wanted to find a boyfriend like Sabrina did. Driving to a restaurant in the next town over because he was two towns away (or something). It felt realistic.

>>77508373
las lindas? Wow, i remember when it just started and she was doing the other vaudeville comic first.

>>77512813
Wow, I forgot all about that. It still going? They ever resolve anything?
Bob and George, 8bit tgeater, and Return to Sender.

God I wish Vera would continue Return to Sender.

>>77486239
It was either Crash and Bass or Gods of Arr Kellan
Then I got started on stuff like LFG and Penny Arcade, though they didn't stick because I wasn't as into video games as I am now
Then I ended up going through a few different places on drunkduck
Then Snafu Comics for a long time because they had a somewhat decent spread until they stopped updating sticky floors
then back to normal comics like LICD, CAD, and QC, which for some reason I liked back then

Goats, back in 97. Didn't really click with me, but it was my first, and I seem to recall some people claiming it was THE first. Apparently there was a reboot or something in 2003.

penny arcade, i think through slashdot.
I thought it got massively better with art and writing but now it's running on fumes most the time.

Can't remember the name, it was about some fat four-eyed guy summoning a devil woman, I don't remember much more. I think he wore Hawaiian shirts and she was all red, bald and basically looked like a devil halloween stereotype. It was pretty crappy.
