@wolfie: I may have mentioned Wilde Life earlier, and I agree with you. It's pretty good stuff, with an apparently well-thought story, unfolding step by step (well, when your landlady's name is Barbara Yaga, you cannot expect things to remain calm forever...), and a very pleasant art.

Also, did anyone mention Wilde Life yet? Comic is worth a read, it is pretty new story, nice pacing, starts slow (not a bad thing) but right now things are going down faster than a rollercoaster. The premise is supernatural with a little mild horror focusing on Native American mythology, which I really like. Link: http://wildelifecomic.com/index.php?id=1
Yessss, I love it! The art is really nice and realistic, and I love stories where a Normal Person gets shoved headfirst into some magical world they had no idea existed <3

The Property of Hate.
Definitely The Property of Hate.
One of the most brilliantly bizarre and symbolic stories I've ever read. She manages to write a man with a TV for a head more human than most fictional characters you can possibly think of.

I approve, definitely worth a try!

Well I just read Prague Race, because people on here seemed to think quite highly of it.  I must say it seems really good, but I am rather disappointed with how little there is of it so far, I really hoped they would go into more detail on the race reassignment.  What is the current update schedule like?

I love Prague Race! Agreed though that I wish there was more. :)

Has Family Man been mentioned yet? I would definitely recommend it.

I don't think there is one, to be honest... it just seems to update "whenever", though there have been quite a few new pages recently.

Ah yes, I am familiar with that sort of update schedule.  I guess this will be one to add to the list for archive buffering.

Actually, Prague Race is currently supposed to update on a M-W-F schedule, though the pages are often late.

@ Solovei Running 'Nope' Oscar is slowly becoming a meme, I believe. His reactions are so priceless. TALKING BEAR.
@ Frogeater (I stole you @ idea, it is neat) Barbara has to have something to do with Oscar still being alive, I am debating with myself which of his current saviors was her but she wants her tenant to live so she did something probably the spideys.

Also, I found a new comic which is, in my opinion very fresh and original, A Dark Matter. http://darkmattercomic.com/comic/a-dark-matter-page-1/ 
I think that it isn't for everybody, everything is very unique/weird in a good way. Art has to be your thing, the story however is compelling and has good characters, allthough I am still confused about lots of things. (story is in its early stages)
Oh and I read Wormworld sage in about two hours and I am now going to have to wait like for the next  chapter. *sigh* T-T Anybody else feeling the burning curiosity of finding out why the hooded men on the kitty cat appeared?!

Looks interesting, but there are too few pages right now for me to make much of it.  There hasn't been much explanation of what is going on.
