Weekly Webcomic Wrap-Up

by Richard Pulfer

Plenty of going-on’s in the web dailies, so let’s hope right to it!

First, in Dominic Deegan, Dominic is able to convince his dark necromatic brother Jacob to help him solve the mysteries surronding the plains of Maltak, the storm-ridden homeland of the orcs. His girlfriend Luna stays in the kitchen - afraid of Jacob - and with good reason, as the elder Deegan has ripped off half o his face already. Sparks, Deegan’s talking cat, reminds Luna that if anything happens to Dominic, it will be on her hands - all in a ploy to eat all the muffins. Luna bursts into find Dominc on the verge of a breakthrough - but Jacob has disappeared, boding potentially darker developments on the horizon.

Then, in Least I Could Do, Rayne has an economic idea - giving all the money charged to him to put on a poverty benefit directly to the homeless, and then using any leftovers to give the guests a real eye-opening look in poverty - in the streets of the city. The guests aren’t all happy, but will surely never forget the experience. Even though, Rayne ends up cancelling out all his good deeds with plenty of bad - namely his many, many, many obscene pick-up lines to co-charity organizer Emma, who still refuses Rayne’s many, many, many advances.

And in Arthur, King of Time and Space, Lancelot saves a princess from imprisonment in a bath tub (not making this up, this is how things went down in the legends!). Now the grateful king - the descendant of Joseph of Arimathea (who brought Christianity to England) wants to “merge” his bloodline with Lancelot - himself a descendant of Jesus Christ - in a way that involves plenty and plenty of wine. And modern day Arthur moons a crowd to keep up with female flashers. We live in such intense times!

That’s all for today. Expect a list (hopefully) over the weekend.

About Comic Book Journal

Where do capes and cowls end and horror and noir begin? What's more important: the four-color panels, or the letter balloons within them? Did comics really begin in cave walls, or just in the Sunday morning cartoons? What the heck is a graphic novel? These questions and more are answered in the Comic Book Journal, the place between the page and the panel, the motion line and the sound byte, the superhero and the every(wo)man.
