The weirdest thing is that, based on the timing, the thing that finally set this guy off after almost two decades of gay, trans, etc characters was two dudes chastely holding hands.
stuff that makes them feel tender emotion tends to make these guys panic and freak out

The entirety of PFSC exists on a sliding scale between being a creative outlet to cope with depression and being an uncomfortably personal window into someone's raw depression and it's not always easy to tell from the outside where exactly it crosses from one to the other.
which is why it's great art!

i'm not disagreeing with anyone in this thread. mental illness is a horrible thing, the affective disorders can ruin a person's life and destroy their chances of reaching their potential in many spheres - there are many facets to a human existence, and artistic excellence (which jc achieved imo) is only one of them. but i also can't deny that some of the best art of our species comes from life-destroying mental health crises, and always has.

think of my friend leonard cohen. it's kind of like saying that new skin for the old ceremony is high art, because he was doing okay psychologically when he made it, but songs of love and hate is a window onto somebody's breakdown and needs to be treated not as art, but as something tragic and awful and traumatic - because that's what it is to its creator. but both are genius albums, both are art. lc could never bring himself to listen to songs of love and hate; jc probably never will be able to bring themselves to read pictures for sad children. but it's all still art.

On the subject of remembered comics we can't find, what was the name of that strange comic/multimedia project set in a future with wide use of virtual reality? Felt kind of snowcrash-ish, had a layabout protagonist with an rear end in a top hat drug popping friend. I remember that it had lots of clickable and sort of animated/sound features on each page. I can picture it but have no idea what it was named.
was it hobo lobo?

That was a great comic but it wasn't set in the future.
it was a wild guess, i actually never got to read it because my internet at the time couldn't handle the multimedia. australia lol :kiddo:

from 2009-2012 inclusive i was very mean about webcomics, and i wish i could go back in time, slap myself, and say "you are pissing on people who are expressing themselves openly for the first time in their lives and you should not do it anymore"

Diaz is someone who is an excellent (if slow) artist, but who desperately needs a writer/co-author, or at least someone to sanity check her ideas.
i never was able to get into dresden (though there were a few good pages) but i really loved her art tips on tumblr
