HoMeStUcK :0)- (one you read it this makes more sense trust me)

Homestuck is a web-comic written by Andrew Hussie. The comic is layed out in a very different way to paper comics, as each screen is something different, and the next square in the layout. It has repeated animations on parts of the drawings and starts off with a very basic style and drawings, which changes throughout. The link to the next page says something different like entering a command in a text based videogame, though the reader can't actually do anything to change it or what happens.

The comic is read as if you are playing a videogame, which the characters themselves actually start off doing. It has a very complicated story, though it is very easy to get sucked in and you never really escape it after.


the comic is full of links to shops, flash games, animations and links to sub comics, which do but don't affect the story line.


the text isn't written on the screens like in other comics, but all appears underneath. Each character has a different typing style and text colour, which makes more sense the more you look into it and find out about the characters. The dialogue appears in chat forum form, and this doesn't change whether the characters are speaking in person or online. There is a lot of scrolling involved.

The art style improves and becomes more detailed and more in colour when the next group of major characters are introduced. The entire comic has a wide range of styles and details, with some being purposefully bad, especially when caliborn takes over the drawing for a bit- who is a character-.
I would recommend reading it a lot but it is also complete and utter trash but once you start its very hard to stop click here to start
