Edit2: Just saw that the along with recent downtime to improve forum stability the avatar size limits have been increased to 100kb and 150x150...but I'm too lazy to redo that to net a bit more curtain and half of a dancing girl. This does mean however that someone can get an animated avatar depicting the best page of Gunnerkrigg.

The avatar limit is up to 100kb now by the way, which is more than three times larger than it used to be. You know, in case anyone wants to remaster their animated avatars.

I think that Gunnerkrigg's pace is only slow compared to something like Homestuck. Out of all the other webcomics I read it has the most consistent forward progression with its relatively short chapters.

Maybe I just don't read all the super fast paced webcomics.

E: I'd never call it glacial though that should be reserved for something like Vattu.

Torokasi: Jan 13, 2011; Powered up to a level 2 super schmendrick.

I approve of more avatars of the best page ever.

Also yeah, Gunnerkrigg makes solid weekly progress on average, with a few nail-driving exceptions (The Revelation of Jones)

I think The Revelation Of Jones was worth it in retrospect, it reads really well as a solid block.

I feel so bad for Gamma; while she's practically necessary for Zimmy, the situation she's in (in general, not specifically this boat thing) sucks so much for her.

Also I was totally fine with the Jones chapter, personally. I keep tabs on a lot of webcomics though, so while it's the highlight of my Wednesday webcomic reading usually, GC's not the only thing there and it being slow sometimes isn't a huge deal to me.

So the last couple days I've been playing Robocraft, a game that lets you build (and fight with) vehicles (which it calls robots for some reason).

I made a new robot.

It's pretty terrible.

Oh, definitely. It's why I referred to it as nail-driving - it's slow but it pounds the point home.

Cult poo poo is happening my friend. Time for the sacrifice of the Angel's Lover to start the grand transformation into machine kind.

Or they'll just goof around and trigger a Zimmy episode more likely.

Aren't they sworn to protect Kat? Don't think they'll be of much use at sea unless those wings are functional now.

Also I like how the first 2 panels are just the sea going, "Oh hey, a ship....I HATE SHIPS!!"

Is that... a cluster of robots peering out creepily from the edges of the stage?

I really like the Doctor Disaster prediction, though. If this is a chapter with Doctor Disaster, which turns into a Zimmy mind-twist debacle, it'll be amazing beyond words.

Most robots have the same pale green angled speech bubbles. Although sky watcher didn't. But most do.

The 'I', and a shitload of seraph-class robots... :ohdear:
