I'll be honest, I never expected to see EGS on here. particularly as this isn't porn, and you can already read it all for free on http://www.egscomics.com/

A complete package of something you like will always be better then playing 52 card pickup with it and hoping that you got them all.

My biggest gripe with Dan is that he never allows anything to play out. It's like watching a roulette of fetishes only for the ball to never stop rolling. Passing by all the fun options available.

No, it's *not* porn. It's a lot closer to an ecchi slice of life, which is just damn fine, because it's not supposed to be porn. It's supposed to be an omake about a silly, insightful, and funny online comic about magic, transformation, and finding new ways to be true to yourself. It is, in fact, as SFW as a comic can be, while still including fetishy transformations.

I repeat, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE PORN! Complaining because it's not sexy is as silly as complaining that a steak isn't sweet. Being sexy isn't the damn point, because first and foremost it's a comedy.

The sad thing is, that back in the day this would have been interesting, but between the almost surgically sterile state of it, the extremely dated references, and the utter lack of focus, this is just trash.
It's amazing that EGS is still going, especially since it started as a bland genderhopping version of the stock "Hip and with it" webcomic of the late 90s and early 2000s that was already tired when it was created.

It's not a matter of it not being sexy, or even titillating, it's just dull as fuck.

Not too surprising really. The comic itself peaked back in 2005 during the genderswap birthday party. During that story arc, the characters were emotionally challenged by the event and emotions, that had been bottled up, poured out and everyone had to work their way through their own, and other people's, built-up angst. Since then, Dan won't let his own characters have any emotional catharsis. If it ever seems like one of the characters will start to cry, another character will hug them and then they'll just not be upset anymore. It makes me think that Dan doesn't want to see other people sad just because that would make him feel sad. Which is a massive problem for a slice of life/drama comic.

I stand by my first comment though. Even with how I feel about Dan's writing, El Goonish Shive would still be a guilty pleasure of mine if Dan didn't flick between fetishes like someone flicking between channels.

Most recent ark I liked was the card game tournament, when Tedd figures out he's genderfluid. Which prior to looking it up I thought was only two or three years ago, but was actually way back in '14. I guess it just feels recent 'cause very little has happened since then besides the gradual introduction of Ashley and Diane into the main cast. Also wasn't there supposed to be a villain somewhere?

When dd this even came out? I know the comic is old but what about this spinoff? Because the last Fables was like 10 years ago. So if this is new its beating a the soil that a long time ago had a dead horse on it.

@funkwolf: Good points, but I don't think that EGS died because it's just a flipbook of fetishes; it started out that way. Tedd was the willing, Elliot the unwilling, TG standi-in for Shive.

Shive always had a mania for stopping the comic and explaining things. But when trans went mainstream, suddenly Shive had to over-explain one half of his entire comic: innocently pervy thoughts about shrink sodas and surprise genderswaps. He was actually coming up with new situations and difficulties (the, God help me, Magic the Gathering parody was actually looking interesting), but I think he's been intimidated from doing things like examining Susan's feminism critically. If he did the same to trans characters (who aren't real life TGs, but try explaining that to SJWs), he'd be burned alive.

Which is to say, once you got rid of pervs with ethics, critiques of feminism, and flaws in characters, EGS was reduced to nothing but flipping through empty fetishes. And, of course, over-explaining all the jokes.

@onipuck: You must be mad: EGS was never "with it", it was by and for nerdy loners all the way. But it had some real emotional depth in between the cheesy action and fetish scenes.

Kicking that dogs wouldn’t have been evil. It would have been monstrous.
