What's the first webcomic you ever read?

[ninjashira]

My first webcomics were Megatokyo and The Devil's Panties. I still read The Devil's Panties at least once a week, and it inspired me to make my very first webcomic too, which was an autobiographical comic strip about my job at a comic book shop. I even did my History of Sequential Art project on Jennie Breeden, the artist/writer of TDP.

What got me into webcomics was an originally starman. net which is an eathbound fan comic
http://starmen.net/comics/series/chosenfour/
The rest can be found on the creators deviant art account. It is an amazing fancomic and awesome.
Another one I read during that to time was 8-bit theater in high school.

Homestuck; I was introduced to it in early 2015.

I choose not to address the existence of the epilogues for my own sanity and self preservation.

[summermcallen]

i can remember this clearly. It was 'Girls of the Wild's' and I still love it very much

Scrued web comic. It is still located at Keenspace

[Skaarfy]

Probably one of those gag-a-day webcomics, don't remember which one I read first. But the first webcomic I got super invested on and still follow to this day is Lackadaisy and it's about to get an animated short!

I'm not sure but I think it might have been 8-bit Theatre.

Yeesh, that's going way back..............
........ um... it's a hard call. It was either:

A: Josh Lesnic's Girly: A webcomic that came around in the chaotic early era of Webcomics. I think it's considered a pioneer of webcomics by the folks who actually care about that sort of thing. In hindsight it was kind of non-incredible. The art was really well-done in the later arcs but in this day-and-age that's kind of, well, join the club you know? But I was less discerning as a kid.
or
B Smorky's Purple Pussy: A webcomic that doesn't have anywhere near as much sexuality as your probably thinking but still managed to be far more adult then the time period it came out in thought was appropriate. Touted as a, "webcomic for girls", it was more of a hardcore LBGT webcomic when that was still in the dark-ages of acceptance.

[NickRowler]

Megatokyo, tho I read the paper print of it.

I feel like I read stuff before that, but most of it was printed stuff that was scanned. Be it manga or American comic strips.

[madkatartist]

First webcomic I read was Room of Swords on Webtoon! It was so cute and I loved and still do, love the story and themes!

Episode 1: The Truth Behind The Legend

Zelda Comic! I think my friends found and introduced me to it somewhere in the 2005~6 range.

[Lucius]

It was either Cucumber Quest or Homestuck for me.

[darkone4587]

A friend of mine got me to read Two Kinds early on but the one I started keeping up with was Sinfest.

[ar-ninetysix]

If my memory serves me right.. this had to be my first one. I loved binging through it like crazy. This was like a decade ago, before I fully grasped the idea of a webcomic

[OBC]

I'm (quite obviously) newer to this, I'd say probably comedy/slice of life comics like Adventures of God and Mondo Mango around 2015.

The odd one out during this time would be Hearts for Sale, which is probably the first webcomic I completed (though to be fair, it was 1. Done by 2015 and 2. Fairly short.). I think I read all of them somewhere other than their host sites though, maybe Imgur or Reddit? Idk.

Smackjeeves pulls a comic out of a hat

It's BL

"Again?" asks Smackjeeves

Hat falls on the floor

They're all BL comics.

[Freemints30]

agreed, I prefer to believe that is 100% non-canon

[ikahueki_squid]

Not sure if this is my first but I could say this is the oldest one that I could recall.
It's called The Surfer and The Merman by BoxOfChocolatesXxX on Smackjeeves.
