Read Penny Arcade, video game referencing webcomics
Penny Arcade is a webcomic focused on video games and video game culture, written by Jerry Holkins and illustrated by Mike Krahulik. The strip features Krahulik and Holkins' cartoon alter egos, John "Gabe" Gabriel and Tycho Brahe, respectively. Their characters spend much of the time playing and commenting on computer and video games, which forms much of the basis of the humor in the strip. As mostly a topical video gaming news comic series, there is little plot or general continuity in Penny Arcade strips, and strips are typically drawn from the perspective of fictional characters within a game or movie.

Three Things!
These are strange days between Christmas and New Years. I don’t tend to accomplish much other than eating too much See’s candy, reading and playing some games. I have eaten, read, and played some really cool stuff though and I want to share.

When They Go Low
When I see the Highguard trailer, I essentially want to install it immediately - and I could, because it's free, but I can't, because it's not out. It's not hard to see the influences, which are every great game, some of which were made originally by people

Children In Danger, Part Three
Alright! So that's all the frogs we have for you at this time. You dodged a frog bullet here, people: this ended so nice that we decided to just let it live. But I got a real cool idea for the next three and they're basically done. So, next time the flesh is weak - or we aren't able to form a strip from the shrapnel of a once

Out of the frying pan, into three suprisingly unpleasant panels! I don't know what the memory situation is for frog eggs but we gotta hope just for his sake that his occipital lobe hasn't developed yet. He doesn't super need it right now because of the jar situation and it's fine if all that stuff just kinda happens… out

Lord only knows what could be going on here! The idea that we might want to leverage dreaded continuity to paper over some personal deficiencies - such as the universal human need for rest - gave way as it typically does into something we really wanted to do and it just took more than one strip to do it. It might take more

I had seen this dude before, because he's a megafauna in a very specific context, and I never saw a rabbit hole I didn't want to inhabit for a while. But Morak had mentioned that whenever they turned the camera back on this guy, he was holding some crazy, borderline imaginary geometry to his lips and blowing through it. It's not something you have to

With his investment in OpenAI, Bob Iger has signaled that he at least is no longer interested in Disney’s legacy of incredible art and artists. As a Disney fan this is sad and honestly hard to believe. It’s like watching someone set their own house on fire. There are still people making Disney stuff that do care though and I think it’s important to recognize them. For

I'm Hatin' It
I was listening to a Satanic cultist talk about how people don't like AI ads once they find out that they're AI ads. His response wasn't to not make AI ads; that would be too straightforward a path. No, what he suggested was to make AI ads in an animated or cartoonish style so that the artifacts of their dark labor - the human

How I Make Comics
I had a few people come up to me at PAX Unplugged last month and ask for more behind the scenes videos of the comic making process. I know I personally enjoy this sort of content from other artists but I rarely think about doing it myself. Well I remembered yesterday or at least I remembered after doing the rough sketch. You can watch the full video below!
