Pity laugh?

 

[Neoriceisgood]

I saw that top page and wondered why it felt halfway decent for a CAD page, then I saw the bottom page and realised.

 

[Silky]

See the first one is actually good, but they can do without the obnoxious font and the bottom caption. It could've hit more like that.

Second one's ass.

 

[Messi]

Why does Phil look like Bill Compton?

 

[MichaelFassbender]

They are all bad,

 

[Dimorphic]

Just awful.

 

[Everheart]

Okay I'll bite, why do we all hate CAD?

 

[Goon Boon]

Okay I'll bite, why do we all hate CAD?

Bad writing.
Bad art.
Bad author.

 

[Coffee Dog]

Okay I'll bite, why do we all hate CAD?

It's written very hamfistedly for something that is supposed to make somebody laugh.

 

[Escalario]

...why? Even VGCats is better.

holy shit that's so much text

why is there so much text on that page

 

[Courage]

holy shit that's so much text

Want one with no text?

 

[ratcliffja]

Replace the Minecraft text with a shadow of the number 7 and you've got a decent comic. The other... Well at least he tried I guess.

My problem with CAD comics is that Buckley writes way more than he needs to.

 

[Veldin]

It's amazing how Buckley can consistently ruin slightly funny jokes by going too far. He's constantly afraid that the reader won't get what he's talking about so he keeps adding in shit to beat them over the head.

 

[Welfare]

That first "comic" would've been decent if it didn't have that bottom caption.

Second one is... it needs work. If the first panel dialogue bubble was shortened somewhat (didn't need the games part or the "we still have data" part) and the third panel was changed, it could've been somewhat decent as well.

At least the parodies are fun.

So, he's Seth McFarlane except less successful? Better than being Sohmer I guess.

 

[samn]

He missed an obvious route to go with the first one, it should be about Calculator investigating the deaths of other classic bundled-in software e.g. Solitaire, Notepad, Minesweeper.

Third comic ought to be 1/3 the length it is.

Nice~

 

[Neo Saf]

Man, ever since SomethingAwful shut down their long-running CAD Mock Thread, I've really missed seeing Loss edits.

Is he still sticking with "The Players" as the main characters?

According to the last CAD thread, he rebooted again and now Ethan & co. are back as superheroes or some shit.

Literally following movie trends.

 

[L Thammy]

Is it just me, or do Kaz and Phil look way too similar here? I thought it was the same character in the first and third panels at first.

holy shit

also does every CAD thread evolve into loss.jpg parodies?

 

[Syph Medwes]

Here we are

damn

 

[L Thammy]

also does every CAD thread evolve into loss.jpg parodies?

Would CAD still be around if not for loss.jpg parodies?

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Yes, unfortunately.

Buckley is a terrible artist.

The original gamersgater

I kinda wonder if Buckley's made any comment about GamerGate. I mean, I'd ASSUME that he's come out as unabashedly pro-GG (this is the guy who once talked about how hard his ex-girlfriend's miscarrage was on HIM, for God's sake), but I'd also assume the same thing about DSP, and he managed to surprise me by taking an anti-GG stance.

 

[foltzie1]

I'll admit I like the Console Wars series.

Well, bear in mind that DSP's original anti-Gamergate statement was because he took the "ethics in gaming journalism" story at face value.

EDIT: Not saying that support for Gamergate is better, mind, just that DSP is still pretty clueless.

 

[Boss Doggie]

The only videogame related strip I liked are Awkward Zombie and the console war thingie.

Here we are

Holy shit lol

Cad is my favorite comic series for all the parodies

 

[Bricky]

It almost seems like we have a monthly thread just to hate on CAD.

Here we are

Okay, I laughed.

 

[Blastoise]

I like it.

 

[Compbros]

The first one was alright, to be fair.


The second one was so predictable I got bored before the second panel.

 

[Oblivion]

They missed a perfect opportunity to use "byte" instead of "bite".

 

[themagicalkitsune]

Was he ever even funny?

...why? Even VGCats is better.

Does one need to be in order to make web comics?

 

[Poodlestrike]

My problem with CAD comics is that Buckley writes way more than he needs to.

Was just thinking that. Lop off the bottom panel, and it's actually pretty funny. Dude needs to learn when to stop telling the joke.

 

[Persona7]

still terrible
