It's the holidays, so we returned to a comic we know we love and that feels like home. Max Overacts by Caanan Grall is full of fun, mischief, wild children, but most of all, heart. We looked at strips 400 thru 500 of the comic, taking us up to the most current posted story. Grab some nog, throw a log on the fire, listen to our review, and curl up with this great comic. |

Gul the orc boy is annoying, loud, and constantly getting in the way. Gul the comic by Atenmaru and NicolieDC is loud, in your face, and epic in all the ways a story like Dragonball is and similarly blows you away with its constant need to up the ante and top the last huge moment. It's got orcs, it's got goblins, it's got parodies of "Uptown Funk". It's a Christmas miracle! |

Derri is a nice person is a universe of evil, skullduggery, and general no-good-ness. Derri thinks she found someone to help her in her mission, but what Derri doesn't know is that Sue isn't what she seems. This setup for the darkly comedic, Mega Man X-infused sci-fi comic, Dr. Dazzle's Angel Dust, is about all we have to go on, as this is a Horizons Watch-esque short episode about the promise this young but impressive story holds. |

Did you know that Scott Kurtz has even more PvP-related news to share, this time involving the return of the pre-time jump gang we all know and love (which includes Skull the Troll, not Troll the Troll, as Jason realized after the fact)? After we run that down, it's time to click, laugh, and share in equal measure with the comic strip joy that is Berkeley Mews. Share your favorite strip with us! |

Jason is a huge fan of mockumentaries in the style of Christopher Guest and Taika Waititi, with the latter using a supernatural bend to add a little something extra to the ordinary. Aminder Dhaliwal's Cyclopedia Exotica continues this tradition in masterful, hilarious fashion, creating a whole connected cast of characters, most of whom are cyclops, that you'll be rooting for by the time the all-too-soon end of the story arrives. |
