Wholesome webcomics that are almost as good as therapy
As a child, I was obsessed with comics. There was nothing I loved more than stealing the Sunday paper from my parents, just to get my grubby hands on the beautiful, multicolored Sunday comics. This love of comics continued, even after my parents eventually canceled their newspaper subscription. In the age of internet access and smartphones, I now had entire subsets of talented webcomic artists at my fingertips. I didn't have to wait until Sundays anymore. Not only that, but with the freedom of the internet, there was now much more diversity in comics - both with the artists who publish them and in the subject matter. You can now find dark humor, raunchy subjects, slice of life, niche nerd humor, and sweet wholesome comics - all of which might have been passed up by typical print newspapers.
