Does anyone else read this comic? If you're nerdy and you know what entropy is (and how it relates to the future of the universe) than this first comic will probably hook you:

The artist just came out with another comic that has beautiful art... just read it.

I must be stupid, because the style in which the comics are made makes it seems rather unintelligible - honestly it just seems like intellectual gibberish.

Agreed. It seems pretty pretentious to me...

Used to be good until it set a new record for how far it's possible to go up your own ass.

I like pretentious gibberish but anything that involves entropy is trying way too hard

I didn't think I'd ever see one, but this is actually a prime example of a tl;dr comic.

I've always liked Dresden Codak for its art style, and for trying to appear smart when so many webcomics are just amerimangas or Penny Arcade knock-offs.

I actually don't find DC that wordy (especially given the infrequency of his updates) but his older long strips were better imo. Subnormality is much more wordy than DC but I still enjoy reading it.

I like looking at DC.

Trying to understand it, actually read it, though? I'm not sure whether it's phd-level pretentious bullshit, or Zen in webcomic form.

EDIT: Having actually read the new one - that was awesome. HOB still makes me doubt the sanity of the creator, however.

Hob was too long and not funny, but I love the comic when it's not taking things seriously. Especially Dungeons and Discourse.
