Actually, I highly disagree. Everyone and their dead grandma has a "video game" comic. The political satire feel to what Free Play is doing right now is a great step in the right direction.

Yeah, that's probably why I don't find this comic all too great. I mean it's ok, but not that great.

i feel them become too disjointed that way

maybe have 2 or 3 characters that only pop up now and then and in small roles, so that you recognize them but they never have a big part. that way there is something reoccuring but in a slight way

When you can identify a character in a comic, you begin to identify with them, you know what I mean? You've got Penny Arcade, Ctrl+Alt+Del, VG Cats, and many many more for that already, don't you? There's no reason to cover the same ground again.

I agree on this and what Beck said. Nice redesign guys.

Edit: I actually like it just the way it is, no characters.

Far side didn't have characters so much as re-ocurring themes (the talking animals etc.) we've been modeling this towards a far side type comic to get started and we do have another comic (Gamer 4 Life) that is two characters but those take alot longer to do and we're trying to get a process going. Soon we'll evolve these. Thanks for the feedback
