Sequential Art

I am addicted to web comics.
I keep up with over 30 weekly.
I could go on for pages about how comics are an awesome artistic medium and how the internet have given those whose work would be otherwise unseen a chance to grow and thrive in their endeavors...
But I'll save that for another time.

I just wanted to put up a "webcomic" that involves photography instead of drawing!
It's called A Softer World (that link will take you to the first comic).
It's dry, sarcastic, and at times can be crude, but I adore it and find the style very interesting.
Here's one of my favorites:

(Hint: If you go to the site and hover over the comic with your mouse there is more text.)

If you like this kind of humor then you should check out a book one of the creators' put together.
Overqualified is a book of absolutely ridiculous cover letters that the author actually sent to real companies, they are hilarious.



Quotable Quotes:

"I spent seventy years sitting around in classrooms, just learning. Oh, how can we live longer? Oh, how can we make ourselves more perfect?"
Joey Comeau from Overqualified
