Sewing, heroes, webcomicshelp?

[torrain_circles]

So, kakkoi_hakujin walks up to me today and says "I hear you're a seamstress. I need a favour." And I put a shot of cinnamon whiskey in the Coke, because the scar from the last seamstressing hasn't gone away yet and I don't have my sewing machine handy and, you know, I'm passably good at it but still cringe when asked to do it for someone else in case I screw it up. But the drastic shortening and gentle tweaking of the jacket went well enough. Thread-fiddling may occur later.

Furthermore, I have decided that while I'm happy to read well-done dark and grim fiction with superheroes, I occasionally just want death-defying action and wonderful strange monsters and quips and a hero with style and grace and little bit of fencing skill. They'd never torture, they'd never lie, honour a promise if it meant they'd die... (Anyone recognize that without Googling it? Man, Wildberry coolers bring out my inner geek.) And you know, I started reading comic books for that. And I can't find it in comics anymore. They got serious sometime when I wasn't looking, and some of it's good, and a little of it's great, but it's not always what I want.

So I'm watching Doctor Who. Because I *will* have my dose of unabashed heroism,dammit.[1]

Speaking of which, Danny, this link's for you. Includes Daleks.

Also: I have discovered that I would like more webcomics to read. So... uhm... suggest a currently updating webcomic, and if I haven't seen it yet and like it, I'll draw you an icon or something? (Two if it updates exclusively on some combination of Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.)

Both ones at the GiantITP site, too. I even bought John the second OOTS book after he hooked me on the strip.

Currently my Monday reading list is about forty comics, and maybe five of them are on hiatus. Saturdays and Sundays have eight and nine.

...uhm, yes. I'm not sure *why* I thought I needed more webcomics, but it seems a sound conclusion...

Mac Hall no longer updates...Sexy Losers no longer updates...Girly (http://go-girly.com/) still updates, though only once a week at the moment...Triangle & Robert (http://home.comcast.net/~pshaughn/tandr.html) updates every day, but it's ending this summer...
...and that's about my whole reading list.

*grin* I remember Sexy Losers. Good times, utterly NSFW.

Have seen Girly in passing, will take another look; have never heard of Triangle & Roberts. Work-safe?

Very much so. The main characters are a triangle and a rhombus. It starts out really rough but gets surprisingly epic as the writer hits his stride.
