Zukka
Wow. I actually loved these so much!
n1ck75
Reminds me of 2000AD style
McCormack
Read ALL the pages!
WhiskersTheWondercat
This makes me feel like watching Red vs. Blue again
Chkari
It's on Netflix.
Cobaltios
Oh good, I'm not the only one who noticed the similarities.
Teddysan
Yeah, SUCK IT BLUE
P1xeli
FYI the artist is from finland

GBMaker
Just be forewarned that the artist only updates about twice a year.
Abominor
8-page backlog? I think I can catch up again.
clavdivscaesar
As a Dresden Codak fan, I can probably take it.
InnocentValley
It's like he/she handpaints them.
happohippo
It is a he (Kimmo is a Finnish man's name).
InnocentValley
Ahh. Finnish names. Still not quite sure about all their genders except the ones we have too.

SHOTGUN!
Snooj
I scrolled all the way to the bottom to make sure this was top comment. I'm so disappointed right now.
ColdChinaman
You and me both
dyxj
This somewhat reminds me of Romantically Apocalyptic. Where is ze captain?
sleete
But RA(2009) started 4 years after GWTBW (2005)...
hiperson134
I thought the same. Similar art style.

"Well that was kind of depressing" o man that got me
AKUUUUUUUUUUUU
http://www.blastwave-comic.com/comics/28.jpg One of my favorites.
petranamib
Yup same here.
SlyeFox
I love that one.
ThatAssYouLove
Darn you for being 4 hours faster!
AintNothinButAPoopbutt
Still my favorite, six years after I've seen it.
kenesisiscool
My personal Favourite.
boodoopeoplemurderpeople
I love this webcomic, despite its rare updates. Definitely recommended.
Looding
FYI the guy who does this did visual fx for Iron Sky.

Also the original splash screen for Angry Birds: http://morriperkele.deviantart.com/art/Angry-Birds-168352254

Wow, that last one was depressing

At least he got a new gun out of the deal

Spoon makes a good war cry.
psychospacecow
http://morriperkele.deviantart.com/art/Spoon-20093026 It was all we could find.
Blerkherks
I wonder what happened to it. There was a whole comic at one point.
Axl4002
This gets 200% cooler for me when I pretend they're all Helghasts.
CthuluFlaps
"WE HAVE THEM PINNED DOWN" AND "GERNADE!!!" are my favorite quotes from the helghast haaa
belgimgurian
R.I.P. Scolar Visari
CthuluFlaps
Damn it rico....
racecarsnotracewars
I love that series so much, but feel like it goes largely overlooked.
AKUUUUUUUUUUUU
Yup, just not as competent.
docweird
Competent Helghasts? Err... When did they ever do anything right? Lose war? Lose planet? Lose half of the city? To one guy? Sheesh. :D
AKUUUUUUUUUUUU
Play Killzone 2 on Elite, then tell me how incompetent they are.
docweird
They still going to lose in the end. (Man I hated those guys you had to shoot in the back tanks to kill...)
AKUUUUUUUUUUUU
Fuck. Them.
NonWellKnownImgurian
Helghasts are amazing
BigJulay
I scrolled down to figure out the game before I continued reading the comics. No specific game...? They're hellghasts to me.
Theguybehindthecurtain
The Higs have a vulture
mynameisnotalice
Helghast? Like Lonewolf's Helghasts?
Yesnomaybeyes
I imagine they're all German.
MattieJack
Is this based off a game or something?
happohippo
No, just OC comic by Kimmo Lemmetti
eskamobob1
I have zero idea what the context of these are, but I laughed so have an upvote
IAmTehDave
If you read the comic you'll have just as much context as the rest of us.
happohippo
There is no context essentially, just a post-apocalyptic city with different factions (colors).
GodLikeButHumble
And why do they fight? To win the war.
eskamobob1
ah. kk. thought it was based on a game
Nightley
Sonofabitch, i just realised it didn't update in my RSS reader for a year! I have some catching up to do... oh wait it just 4 updates :/
mountainofpuppies
hi, just a quick Q, can you personalise an RSS reader to update you on certain sites posts? is that what your RSS reader is?
Nightley
Well, basically, yeah. Currently using Feedly. Pretty useful.
mountainofpuppies
thank you kind sir
GandalfUnicorn
How I currently feel about JL8. :(
CaloMate
Justice League 8? The hell are you guys talking about - the artist's been posting stuff!
noxness
I keep checking back and NOTHING!
Ginocide
That last one was a bit sad until you realize he stole the rifle.
youcanthandlemykamehameha
This is, in my opinion, a web comic that didn't get as much attention as it deserved. Genuinely made me laugh out loud
AKUUUUUUUUUUUU
Each update is pretty awesome, but I wish he'd update more than once a month.
youcanthandlemykamehameha
If that much
KujohTroopa
Is this based on some kind of game?
TheDarkLordOfTrees
nope. original comic.
Counterfit
Team Fortress 3
sevenofninetertiaryadjunctofunimatrixzeroone
Every game.
captainkirkisclimbingamountainwhyisheclimbingamountain
DO YOU THINK THIS IS A FUCKING GAME!?!?!
ThatAwkwardMomentWhereYouAreOutOfIdeasForCoolUsernames
Not based on a game, but Planetside 2 has a very similar concept.
othersideofthetree
does it have 3 teams? I think the coolest thing is having 3 teams
ThatAwkwardMomentWhereYouAreOutOfIdeasForCoolUsernames
Yep. Vanu Sovereignty (Purple), Terran Republic (Red) and New Conglomerate (Blue). NC for firepower, TR for big magazines, VS for spandex
othersideofthetree
duh*
ThatAwkwardMomentWhereYouAreOutOfIdeasForCoolUsernames
It's actually a running gag in the game... But you should try it. All out war, all day and night (both ingame and real life) and its free!
othersideofthetree
spandex, suh
MrWolfwood
"on going" this is updated once a year, maybe.
PaleGreenHarlequin
Did anyone read Post-Nuke? I found it at about the same time as this, but it hasn't been updated for years. It was great.
Montablac
so its the new VGcats then...?
someguyonthissite
Or Prequel.
Imguringatwork
Wouldn't call it new. It's been around for years.
DaMackies
Is it actually updating again?
DankMemesAreGreat
Barely.
Somanyquestions
There is a new update as of last week!
SpeakerToMeat
about once every four months
GenStrike
There's 3 new comics.
Haes
I have been waiting for it to start again! <3
Matte9421
Not really.
iratedragonborn
sometimes he gets himself to update monthly. i think this year already had more than 6 updates, which is astounding for the comic.
ForgottenTaco
no not really. sadly
poorlywrappedpresents
I think he averages 1 every 1-2 months? Maybe?
Escheron
he claims it's every months, and gets mad if you say there's no schedule. but it's gone up to 6 months without updating
Hav3lock
I check it now and then and I think at least 5 new strips were added lately.
steakfight
A whole 10 new strips and last I visited was maybe 2012... 2013? Doesn't look like it.
Deakens
IT was always updated, just very, very,very infrequently.
GaarDNous
Apparently. This makes me happy.
swatz
all 2 times a year.
acidebob
Yeah the dude doing GWBW said oten that this project is really low priority. e would spend time looking at the wall doing nothing.
Bhelkweit
Do you realize how excited I am that it's updating again!
SpidersInAHumanSuit
I was thinking the same thing! last i'd seen was like 6 months between updates.
MechaNinja
's what god invented RSS for, son.
Rivalyn
I was reading this for a while, then the site was gone for months, and I figured that the artist had gotten tired of the whole thing.
delusionalhair
He moved the site and tried re-doing all the art.
Lapkin
As I remember he went for military for 2 years. Not sure. It was so much time ago.
secularink
Probably for a 6 months or 12 months, not 2 years. He got bored of writing the comic, but still accepted donations.... dun, dun,k dun...
zackofspades
Damn imagine if he came back from military and the content got way darker and more PTSD-esque...
Mikaru86
I don't think he was deployed, he went to basic training, which is mandatory for all Finnish males.
zackofspades
Oh got it. Heck in that case maybe the content will just improve from the training experience.
Melonfish
Yeah you could tell when he finished college the updates became *when life permits*. Still an utterly epic comic.
ShadowTallon
i bought the book! didnt even realise the site was still around
ThatAnnoyingGuy
It's always been updating, but the updates are just few and far between
xenwall
In other news, Homestar Runner is updating again.
CharmingAndSexyGentlemanStarshipCaptain
I hope they branched out, the stupid general plotline get a bit stale now.
daxx0r
Yeah, I haven't seen this comic for like... 7-8 years :P I thought it was dead
chemistrydoc
This is my first time seeing it. I feel we are in very different mindsets right now.
UCFjeff
Second time and I'm so happy
ObiSeanFlurNobi
First time I saw these was on imgur, then I went and read all of them.
Robvp
I saw these before imgur ever existed, kept checking for a long time for updates, a little less frequently every time until i forgot it
ExclusiveGamer
It updates about the same pace of Beserk, but with only 1 page and not a full chapter.
ZED52
Sometimes. Rarely though. I treat it as a nice surprise every now and then
LittleTinyFluffyBunny
:(
YourTypicalMental
Guy needs to have a Patreon, I'd gladly throw money his way to see more.
TheDarkLordOfTrees
once a month :(
Armady
sometimes maybe yes
kenesisiscool
Roughly once every other month.
