Outsider


Outsider.

A comic of space warfare and exploration. Created in a 3D-modeling program of some sort; "Lightwave", maybe? Nearly never updates. Seriously, this is one of the first webcomics I ran into, four years ago, and it was up to page 25 of chapter 1. Now? Page 50. Created by Arioch, who takes his time. It starts here.

The comic itself is fairly interesting. Arioch definitely did a lot of work brainstorming and planning Outsider; I read the forums, four years ago, and he went to a lot of trouble to avoid the obvious cliches and create a plausible future, filled with relativistic warfare and realistic societies. So that's pretty neat. But... well. He's up to page 50 of chapter 1. The last time he posted a new page was nearly a year ago. If you want to read a comic that will likely finish, or even ever update again? This isn't it.

But what there is possesses good quality, plus it's a little nostalgic for me. So hey, there you go.

(A lot of big pretty comics recently. Shall the next be simpler? Perhaps!)
