Finder's Keepers
Wow, ok, so I totally forgot it was my turn... I never got around to reading Ubersoft, so I kind of... well, sorry.
So! Finder's Keepers.
Plot: Hmm... this is kind of hard to explain... So we're following Cailyn, who is a perfectly normal, somewhat genre savvy, totally snarky human, as she's forcibly dragged into an underground world of fantastic magical creatures. It's not what you'd think, though... Like, we've got pixies and all, just they're kept in jars by deranged scientists because they're a good light source. Just... read it, you'll figure it out.
Art: Comic book style, prologue is black and white but everything else is full color. Nice and detailed. Personally, I think it's darned good.
Things to Know: Does anyone remember Comedity, which I posted years ago? No? I didn't think so, but... Comedity ended, and this is the author's next project. It's just less comedy-based, though it does have its humor. Also there's a bit of language, just as a warning.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Re: Finder's Keepers
This is Comedity's next in line? I remember that, I followed it until it ended, but I never got around to looking at his new comic.

Re: Finder's Keepers
First thing I noticed was that, yeah, the art is pretty great. I always like that in a webcomic so that's what caught my eye first. It starts out a bit awkward (as far as their faces, I think?) but it clears up after a few of the first chapters and the rest is just spectacular.
I'm also a big fan of mythology and all that so it's rather amusing. I like how the story is so far; it's a lot shorter than I expected it to be. xD
I think Silver stole my favorite page. :v No other page really stuck with me, I think.

Re: Finder's Keepers
A great webcomic. I read through the archive real quickly... when I should have been doing my math homework
. Ah, it was worth staying up extra late to finish it, though. The art is great, and so far I'm really liking the story.
May the Triforce be with you.

Re: Finder's Keepers
Great comic, really like the art. I like how people like Puck got drawn in such originally cool ways. The Umbra kinda remind me of black mages :P. Laughed at them in this comic.
Thought this one was pretty funny too. The last three panels.
The archives were kinda short, so I got through it kinda fast. I think I'll keep reading this one.

Re: Finder's Keepers
We'll keep this one up for one more week to give everyone (myself included) time to read it.
Re: Finder's Keepers
Yar, me maties, but I be sorry. I couldn't quite get into this comic, ye see. Maybe it's because I have to do a project for me English class, or because I have a massive headache whenever I read it. Arrg, I don't know me harties, but shiver me timbers, the art's fantastic and I'm planning to see how the story turns out. I do love the genre savvyness in Cailyn, that saucy litte wench.

Re: Finder's Keepers
I also read through the archives very quickly, of course i have a lot of time on my had at the moment... it also makes me feel rather lazy when it comes to posting too.
But I like the art, deaths a girl, and it's really interesting. I also love mythology. I'll be keeping an eye on this one. ^_^

Re: Finder's Keepers
Finally found some time to read this and I got to say that it's pretty good. Comedity lost my interest after a while, but Finder's Keepers seems to have a pretty solid plot going with a good setup and interesting characters. Great art too. I'll definately be following it.

I enjoy this comic quite a bit. The art's nice, the characters are strong, and the plot is rather compelling. I think I'll be following this once I get my internet back.
