D&D has Order of the Stick; I'm hoping that SR has something of similar caliber.

Bulletproof was fun while it lasted. Anime style, so don't say you weren't warned.

I've been part of several abortive attempts. One is ready to roll if the artist ever returns to life, the other should hopefully be launching sometime early Summer.

COMMISSIONED, a comic strip updating six days a week, features a cyberpunk strip based closely on SR every Friday. (By "closely based," I mean that the setting is essentially the same, but some of the names are changed--for example, they have "RemotoDoc" instead of "DocWagon.) I like this one and this one and this one. Also, this one has nothing in particular to do with SR, but as I've said before, it reminds me of Emo; I think that he probably wishes that China was really like that. :D

I've already read all of Commissioned, and you only wish there were things that could repair cyberarms nearly so well.
And Bulletproof was excellent; I especially like how at the end they [ Spoiler ]

I started one a while back on Drunk Duck, called .25 cent life, but only got to about 10 pages (at the most) before I realized I had no plot. Since I have tried to start one up again, but always feel my writing is a bit lacking.

The Pet Professional has some funny wetwork, but no magic.
nsta has a nice dystopian theme but no magic. Post nuke Comic is kind of an after the bomb comic that lends itself to a dark theme. no magic either. Level I think reflects shadowrun, there is some funky stuff happening, and it is amazingly well drawn. Bulletproof mentioned above is the only shadowrun comic I could actually find. As soon as I can get some clothing for Daz3d I am going to start a 3d rendered comic. Put some screen captures together with photoshopped effects and I am hoping to turn out something appealling. Will probably need a writer to come up with good dialog and plot. Edit: oops forgot Fabricari |

The artist had too much schoolwork, she's doing stuff with animation and such. Go see her deviantart site to see some of her other stuff. It's a bummer that the forums on her website is gone.

The Midlands is set in the shadowrun theme and mainly focusses on the lives of a few characters rather than exciting runs and stuff.

Squinky; I may stab you. I liked where your plot was sort of going. I also think that its very hard for someone to start a comic with a very strong plan.
You should have kept going. |

Just found another comic that is really well done and seems to have a strong shadowrun flavour.

There are so many people here, couldn't people work together to create a Shadowrun comic? I can't draw, or i'd have a comic up and running. I just can't seem to retain the feeling of SR with badly drawn stickmen ;P

does it realy need a story? just do some runs, develop som charaters and play around with their interactions. sooner or later something or other is bound to just up and say aha ;) to me it looks like thats how OOTS started, simply a rag-tag group of adventurers out to do a dungeoncrawl. |

Yes they can be funny .... but most of the time they are just silly and annoying. Drawing a comic takes a huge amount of time ... a commitment of 6-8 hours a week for a 4 panel page. Using sprites and poor drawing puts a very heavy emphasis on writing which is seldom strong enough to support it. Usually only the really essentric find it amusing, and usually you do not want those people around or you get annoying feedback.

If you let emo write.... please do not call it a shadowrun comic or have anything on your site that will let people know you play. Anymore links between the two would just be bad. |

Insect shaman bad! Drop bears killing the UCAS president with power armor bad! Piss off Platinum and attract horrifically insincere "sympathy" bad!
Platinum, you are such a public opinion whore. Seriously. |
