A comical plan
One of the joys of friends is being introduced to new things I wouldn't otherwise have known about. Books, films, bands, restaurants, even places to live - all my experiences in these fields have been enriched by my friends. So over the next few days, I'm going to enrich some of you (for 'enrich' read 'cause you to be distracted for several hours') by sharing my favourite web comics.
Today, the Queen of All Steam Punk - "Girl Genius" - http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php
And by the same cartoonist, an earlier (and now complete) work - "Buck Godot". This is what got me into Phil Foglio's work - http://www.airshipentertainment.com/buck.html
Continuing the Foglio theme, anyone who used to read Dragon magazine back in the day will remember "What's New With Phil And Dixie" - http://www.airshipentertainment.com/growfcomic.php (what's new is that it is still occasionally updated.)
To complete the set, "Myth Adventures", which is based on the work of Robert Aspirin, thus combining two loves - http://www.airshipentertainment.com/mythcomic.php
Enjoy - and feel free to curse me at 3 in the morning when you realise you've only just got to 2008.
