Sunday Cartoons

After scrolling through the likes of www.pbfcomics.com and www.whiteninjacomics.com, I began to wonder whether the humour found online was much more different than those I found in the Sunday papers and whatnot. While there are obvious differences in size and handling, many of them seem to have a similar dateline for when you get to see a new iteration. I'm not sure if my sense of humour can be considered normal, but I still find the old Haggar and long edition Garfield strips quite funny, but perhaps am able to laugh at the 'complex and intricate stylings' of the one-shot comics that are found on the net. With the above two (plus Bob the Angry Flower), you'll find your share of violence and elements designed for more mature (sic) audiences, but ultimately the humour in both medians seem to translate well on the terms of their reading. Presentation doesn't tend to be much of a factor, perhaps preserving a kind of simplicity of reading.

Then you have your other brand of web comics which are more 'comic-oriented' so to speak. Having a page on a given day increases anticipation and decreases the need to look over the page to see what happens next, but ultimately it tends to drag out due to the fact that it's on a site that needs bread to run. Ending it would be harder to do, unless it were episodic (which I still think is quite tough to pull off given the deadlines and largely payless conditions.
