Webcomics: Part 2

So I HOPE you all have checked out the webcomic we here at We're Friends! have started. You have right? Why wouldn't you really, it's not like you're a jerk or anything. Well, if you have, you noticed how great it is. It stars the two of us, naturally, and we get into all sorts of wacky hijinks. However, there are other comics on the internet that are "great" too. Some may even say they are of the same calibur, or even better! These people need to be rounded up and thrown into wells. You can commence this action right away, bring a friend!

One of these webcomics is called Wondermark.

Now I bet, since you guys are such smarty-pants, that you've noticed that this comics looks, shall we say, different. You'd be right! The man who creates Wondermark, a fellow named David Malki!, takes pictures from the 1800s and early 1900s and creates tableaus such as this with them. What a lark!

He uses old catalogs, actual cartoons from that era and all sorts of books. I've actually watched him create one of these live (thank you INTERNET) and it's not as easy as it may sound. He either creates the joke/story before hand and has to find/modify the correct pictures to use. Or he finds some funny looking cartoons and creates a joke/story around them. Oh, he also can draw very well. So don't say this isn't a "valid" comic, because you read what I said about wells before.

The comic does not have any sort of continuity, and is extremely funny. No romance or human drama here, just a bunch of absurdity, humor and sometimes topical issues! I implore each every one of you to go check it out. And email him with a link to this blog so maybe he'll notice me and ask me to the dance.
