I, myself prefer humor, especially dark, edgy humor. And with epics, some I like, while others I can't understand. Epics I enjoy, I'll usually will read to the end! I think adding touch of politics to comics does some good.
So, whats your favorite type?
Olive, Gin and Hazel are members of the blacktail meerkat clan, the smallest meerkat group in the kalahari. But remember, size doesn't matter....
If Epic means storyline then I go with having a continuing story. Otherwise I prefer mix like a humorous fantasy but I suppose I'd say fantasy would be my first choice genre.
But the characters, story and setting have to be believable and likeable. You can't just give me endless jokes told by cut out characters. I need something real in the strip to come back to.
Remember when your imagination was real? When the day seemed
longer than it was, and tomorrow was always another game away?
I've put epic, since I've seen this worked together with fantasty and humour to end up with some great webcomics.
To be honest, I'm not a huge drama fan - and this isn't helped by the fact that I've yet to stumble over a good one. That isn't to say that a good drama webcomic doesn't exist, though...
I like politics added into webcomics - it can spice things up. However I find froth-at-themouth political comics abrasive. As soon as I hear someone rage about 'them' (which more often than not consists of everyone who doesn't share their particular point of view) I shut off.
I voted Humor because it's the only kind of webcomic I can actually read. If I was to consider printed comics too, I would not be able to pick one at all
For webreading the thing must be short and quick, otherwise I won't have enough patience or time to follow the story :\
