Minus

Post by gkscotty » Sat May 19, 2007 2:34 pm

A very bizarre, cute and touching webcomic. I'll have to keep up with this one

First comic

And my highlights...

My Friend the Bread
Grabbing a star
Why you little!
Deep Impact
Snowglobe

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone’s fault. If it was Us, what did that make Me? After all, I’m one of Us. I must be. I’ve certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We’re always one of Us. It’s Them that do bad things. - Jingo, Terry Pratchett

You know, I think I really like this artist. Socks is brilliant too.

Wow...  It's just... surreal.  But I like it (both actually).

Sometimes I feel like dressing up my Gaia avatar.
Feels kinda pointless since I don't actually do stuff at Gaia, so I'm putting it here.

Wow, I must have spent an hour or so reading all the Minus comics. They're very well put together, enjoyed them quite a lot!
I'll have to start on Socks sometime soon.

Ohh, I remember Minus!  Yeah, it's an interesting little thing. :)

Hmm...I get *sips* subtle hints of French art film...a strong aroma of a sober anime fantasy...with the bittersweet finish of an adult looking back on childhood in a fashion all at once nostalgic and somber. 

I like it.  Its like the dreams you have on the days you realize that your childhood has passed you buy when you've just grown mature enough to appreciate it.
Hey you, out there in the cold,
Getting lonely, getting old,
Can you hear me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles,
With itching feet and fading smiles,
Can you feel me?
Hey You! Don\'t help them to bury the light.
Don\'t give in without a fight.

That's a really strange and intriguing, well made comic. Definitely not my style, though... I don't know what to admire in it.
