Heroes of Thantopolis by user Strontium is a huge, epic, sprawling story-driven webcomic about a boy named Cyrus who journeys through Thantopolis and fights bad guy ghosts, makes friends, and uncovers mysteries. Clocking in at 150 or so pages and still going, HoT is a monster of a series. It's extremely colorful, very creative, and beautifully illustrated with a fun cartoony style. If you're a fan of sprawling epics, Heroes of Thantopolis is for you!

Sounds crazy, right? Second Coming is a webcomic by Abel Alives and Juan Caminador. What I appreciate the most about this comic is its willingness to talk about adult subject matter, like drugs, sex, and masturbation. The story is also well-told, keeping you guessing and intrigued up until its big twist. Updates monthly.

The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn, by Tri Vuong, is a story-driven webcomic about the titular Oscar Zahn. Not much is spelled out out for the reader, but I gather that this story is about a skeleton man who is a contracted monster hunter. The brief pages of this webcomic contain heart and beautiful, if not creepy illustrations. You will not forget who Oscar Zahn is after reading this.

We Live In An MMO?! is beautifully drawn and packs some great actions scenes as well! Updates monthly.

Food Hates You, by D. Bradford Gambles, tells the story of meatball named Pete and his journey through the human body, meeting a bunch of other food people along the way.

Billy Johnson and his Duck are Explorers is a story-driven adventure webcomic by Matthew New. "Join Billy Johnson and his trusty duck, Barrace, as they travel the world in search of adventure!"

Big Fucking Hammer is a webcomic by Danny Djeljosevic and Diana Naneva about Madison Tiger, a girl who has the ability to throw up a giant hammer every time she eats. She must use this ability to save her town of Meteor Fell from a criminal mastermind. This webcomic is exceptional because of its brazen, honest writing and very stylish art. Not for weak stomachs.

Benedict The Grey by Deya Muniz tells the story of Benedict, an alien that has come to Earth to study the human race. This story is told in the form of "research diaries" by Benedict, who is implanted behind the ear of a girl. The premise is unique and the art is fantastic! You'd enjoy this webcomic if you're curious about how an alien would react to fireworks, human interaction, proper consumption of human food, and holidays! Updates once a month or so. 

Jolly Biscuit by user Nubly is, in a word, absolutely absurd. Okay, that was two words. Jolly Biscuit is sometimes hit or miss, but when it hits, it's a riot! Here's a favorite of mine. You're in for a treat if you enjoy loose, zany art along with funny and nonsensical writing!

My next webcomic recommendation goes to NON-NON by Karla Diaz! NON-NON or "NO TALKING - NO TOUCHING" tells the story of two strangers that develop a relationship only in their heads. The unique premise is matched by the great character work and the gorgeous, expressive anime-inspired art! Due to the sometimes-suggestive nature, it may be considered NSFW. Updates about every week.

Rickety Stitch and the Gelatinous Goo is a story-driven, fantasy/adventure webcomic by Ben Costa and James Parks about a skeleton bard (Rickety) and his gelatin cube sidekick (Goo).

Usually updates every five days or so.

Hello, people! I'm Nick Hirsch and I'll be blogging about webcomics! I'll recommend/review one each week. I'll be reviewing both laugh-a-day comics and story-driven ones. All of the webcomics I'll be reviewing are available on Tapastic.com to view for free! I also have a comic on there called Bulletin Hoard that everyone should check out!

Shameless self-promotion aside, I hope this blog will interest people who've never read webcomics before! Hopefully it'll also have some new stuff for the webcomic veterans. The word "webcomic" is starting to sound weird now, isn't it? Anyway, enjoy!
