do YOU love achewood, too?

i was down with the Teodor battle-writing catalogue erotica, sadly it does seem to be aborted

I was thinking this was going to be a kind of lazy way of getting Teodor somewhere in life, but now this has taken an unexpected turn or three.

i am actually getting kind of bummed out by this

borrrrrring tbh

dude completely forgot how to write for any of his characters a while ago, its pretty sad

hey just because whiney's gone doesn't mean you all have to fill in the inane bitching gap

i think bummed out is a perfectly legit reaction; it wasn't really meant as a complaint about onstad's skills, of which this last plotline is a pretty good reaction

demonstration, rather

i do kind of think mb he should take a break for a while, do something else. like doonesbury.

just commenting on this ongoing plot yo

holy massive lols at n/a

Dude, Molly is going to be pissed.

i dig the crazy new plots

they're cartoon cats, btw--they're not really dying

isn't this the third time he's "died"? get a new idea.

I keep typing posts about cartoon cats and then deleting them from the post box

how many times did charlie brown miss the football

how many times did calvin play calvinball or fuck with snowmen

they're cartoon cats, btw--they're not really dying

haha yeah. still tho!

One storyline, which ran the week before Halloween in 1989 (Oct 23 to Oct 28), is unique among Garfield strips in that it is not meant to be humorous. It depicts Garfield awakening in a future in which the house is abandoned and he no longer exists. In tone and imagery the storyline for this series of strips is very similar to the animation segment for Valse Triste from Allegro non troppo, which depicts a ghostly cat roaming around the ruins of the home it once inhabited.

There was some speculation on the internet about what these strips meant[57], including the possibility that Garfield was either dead or starving to death in an abandoned house, imagining future strips in a state of denial.

i dig the crazy new plots

The Lil' Nephew taking over 16th century Wales with blunts and toilets was very funny.

The part of this with Ray getting in an accident on the way was nice, but the rest is dragging. The fact that Onstad's "Monday evening" in Onstad Standard Time (aligned with the US west coast) is sometime Wednesday in Central Standard Time is depressing.

it must suck to know thousands of people are going to be bitching if you don't finish your work on time

i think that's the main reason people are complaining; if the plot was moving along at a daily pace like it used to it wouldn't seem as boring.

I have no idea why he doesn't do another couple-week break and get a few ahead. Or wait until he's actually done with a comic before saying when he's going to post it.

or you could just not read it for a few weeks and then read them all at once?

it would have exactly the same effect

i know we read it for free and blah blah blah but it would really help if he got on a more regular schedule, which he did have in the past. like, this is his full-time job--it's not too much to ask.

yes it is--you're getting free internet comics for free. and they're comics. i dub you Whiney G. Winegarden, Jr. until you retract your statement.

mr. que that's just low, esp. since in this thread you'll find me and whiney arguing because i actually liked achewood and he did not.

ultimately achewood is not a "free internet comic" but a business venture--i have bought shit from onstad--and i am less inclined to do so these days cause his output is not what it used to be.

I pay for the fanflow and have purchased Achewood books and products. So I am a paying customer, damn it!

i understand y'alls frustration but buying stuff from him does not guarantee that he will update every day. surely you guys can understand that?

xp right but not updating on a regular schedule (at his peak he only did four days a week) is a good start to guaranteeing that i won't buy stuff from him--do you get that?

holy dudes it's just a shitty web comic

yeah i didn't think anything really unusual was happening...some regular readers of a shitty webcomic made some comments and mr. que decided to do his i'm-deliberately-being-dense thing.

beef's not even really dead yet. there was still a speck of light in the last panel L@@K

I'm enjoying this latest storyline despite the lack of jokes. Also, beef has died a couple of times before, but this time there won't be a Molly waiting for him in heaven, maybe.

yah, i get this

do you? do you really?

love that gif

onstad's karma wheel could never even turn.

the perils of steampunk

Reading back through some old strips today, just got to this and had forgotten how ROFL this whole storyline was: http://www.achewood.com/index.php?date=11032003

yes this was awesome.

If Beef can escape from the wheel of karma, then there's hope for all of us.

gotta say i'm kinda puzzled by the latest strip. Is he getting back on the Wheel in order to reverse the fate of Ray and Teodor?

I don't see how he could know about them. He might go back in just because he's sick of life, though.

My first thought back when OnStar locked Ray and T in the Caddy was, "this thing's catching fire sure as the world, and Ray's going to get even richer from suing the fuck out of OnStar."

it doesn't indicate whether roast beef's getting back on the wheel or not; the door closes but we don't know which side of it he's on
