A Look at "SUBNORMALITY" - Return of the Webcomic Post


I haven't wrote a webcomic focused post in a while, so I figure it's the perfect time to bring SUBNORMALITY, a comic series that is described by the author as "comix with too many words", to your attention. Want a webcomic that actually has some substance? Look no further. The author (Winston Rowntree) (note: not really the author's real name), really gets people. I can't count the number of times I've thought "GET OUT OF MY HEAD" while reading his comics. He somehow manages to pin down human uncertainty and optimism simultaneously without coming across as flippy floppy. His comics aren't black and white, but grey. KINDA LIKE LIFE ITSELF, RITE GUYS? He gets that while humans can be messy and strange, we also have a lot in common and share a remarkable amount of experiences and thought processes that connect us as well. I dare you not to delve deep into his archives and go on a binge reading spree. Be warned, though, some of these babies are lengthy, so get comfy.
