Back of the Envelope

Sluggy Freelance — So, Bun-bun's hunting for the book of Wayang Kulit--something to do with shadow something or others. Meanwhile, the shadow something or others are hunting for him. What they lack in intelligence and good leadership, they make up in pure zeal.

Day by Day — Damon gets Jan a burka. She wears it well--or somebody does anyway. The illegal alien debate gets a bit of time this week as well.

Scary Go Round — It's guest artist week on Scary Go Round. Most of it's pretty good--go have a look.

College Roomies from Hell!!! — Dave tries to bribe Margaret into killing Mike, but it doesn't look like it'll go anywhere. Instead they just swipe the shrimp at the buffet.

General Protection Fault — Our Nick is being forced to work by evil Nick, but it seems evil Ki is having second thoughts about her role in this scheme, especially when it involves being tortured. But who's that mysterious stranger who's feeding evil Nick information?

Schlock Mercenary — Elf begins her mission against the glamor assault people. It's not every day that a mercenary company gets to take down a major network. I'm curious to see what the plan is. At least Elf got through security without having to give up her sidearm.

You don't see a whole lot of full 3D computer generated webcomics. The work involved tends to make it hard to keep them coming at a decent rate. That said, this new one has been updating every weekday for the past couple of months. This is an impressive feat, and I'm curious as to whether the artist has a huge buffer, or if he really can produce these comics every day. Whichever is the case, I'm hoping he keeps it up. The art is beautiful and the story's engaging. As the comic started in January this year, the archives are really short, so you should start reading The Dreamland Chronicles from the beginning.

Sluggy Freelance — Torg and Bun-bun's roadtrip is a time for some deep man-to-rabbit bonding, as Torg tells Bun-bun what happened in that other world. Unfortunately, Bun-bun doesn't want to hear it. He's convinced Torg's gotten them lost, and he merely wants to get to the right place.

Day by Day — NBC's fake Muslim sting operation has been uncovered, leading to a few comics by Chris focusing on Damon's attempts to be a fake Muslim. He's doing better than Jan, at least.

Scary Go Round — Ryan decides he wants to contact the other side, trying to get in touch with his lost love. Of course, he goes to the necromancers for this, and their idea of visiting the other side means a knife in the back.

College Roomies from Hell!!! — So the Dave-April tryst was an April Fool's joke. That's for the best, I suppose, although I was hoping that it was really the beginning of a fling for Dave's Good Conscience and Imaginary Floating Wiser April. No such luck, it appears. Dave's massive brainwarp is real, though, and Mike takes drastic action to bring him out.

General Protection Fault — Trudy meets her sister, Sharon. Okay, I'll admit I pretty much saw that coming. Sharon's not too happy about the revelation. Meanwhile, Persephone finds out that the aliens are planning to destroy her, as they don't believe in alternate universes, and thus believe that she's a threat from theirs.

Schlock Mercenary — Petey explains to his Tohdfraug admiral why 15 billion attempted murders is worse than a hundred thousand trillion actual murders. See, the latter were for a good cause, and... Okay, I don't buy it either. At least Elf is going to have some fun with Fashion Assault. For certain sadistic ideas of fun, at least.

Sluggy Freelance — Zoe's threat to quit is derailed by the offer of her own radio show as Leslie the Intern.

Day by Day — So Zed's a Black Ops sniper? Okay, that's weird. Then its dinner, and some commentary on the pro-Mexican protests by the Hispanic illegal immigrants.

Scary Go Round — Shelley's worried about the moon, and what plots it might have. Listening to crazy old guys can really screw you up, can't it?

College Roomies from Hell!!! — April's outfit gets her some attention from Mike, which makes her all giggly. Stay good, April! Stay good! Fortunately, Marsha didn't see anything, and IFWA tries to talk April into acting more wisely. She has her work cut out for her. The real question is whether April's run-in with Dave is canon or an April Fool's joke. I honestly don't know.

General Protection Fault — While evil Nick's trying to break good Nick, Trudy and Trudy are talking religious stuff. I know a lot of people stopped reading GPF because of the religious stuff, and even I found it somewhat disconcerting. That said, it's better done this time around, and it's a good lead in for finding Trudy's sister.

Schlock Mercenary — The plan is coming together as Elf calls the network to set up a makeover, luring them into the trap. Of course, we still have no idea what the trap actually is, but I'm sure it'll be fun. Petey, meanwhile, is still off in another galaxy, battling the Pa'anuri, and building giant umbrellas while he's at it.
