I guess it all depends on how long it takes for each comic, how dedicated you are and how much time you have. With me it was pretty much a losing battle anyway since I'd already lost a lot of interest in my comic.

I feel slightly disturbed after reading Sluggy Freelance from the beginning in one week. I just couldn't stop reading it.

Reading the entire VGCats series last month just doesn't compare to reading 7+ years of a daily comic....

Sluggy Freelance hit quite a low on these last months. And the saturday strips suck terribly (Meanwhile, on...). Seems like it's getting back on track, though.
Probably away. Contact through email.

A low? A LOW? The whole Dimension-of-Lame saga was one of the most awesome things Sluggy has done ever.

Granted, I can see how that particular plotline wouldn't appeal to the "ha ha he fell down" demographic. Myself, I appreciate a strip that can do high drama just as well as high comedy.

I liked the whole Holiday Wars storyline the best, but Dimension of Lame wasn't bad at all.

Penny Arcade, Ctrl-Alt-Del, Real Life, 8-Bit Theater, Poisoned Minds, Freefall, and Foxfire just about does it.  And RvB, even though it's not really a comic.  Yes, I'm too lazy to post links. :p

Yes, it's a low, and considering that Sluggy's lows are the same as most comic's highs, that's really saying something.

Honestly, I think Pete is running out of steam.  The comic has been going for so damn long now that it's getting harder and harder to be funny and creative anymore.  For the last couple of years I've been convinced that he should begin wraping it up, but he keeps going forward, for good or ill.
