The Webcomic Overlook #203: Hejibits
Hey, kids! Do you know what time it is? It’s time for that video game expo! No, not the one founded by the webcomic guys. The other one. The one in LA. Um… the Electronic Entertainment Expo, also known as E3. It’s like, sort of a big deal (not really). And to celebrate this great day, let’s take a look at another webcomic about video gaaaaammmmmeeeeeeeeeeee…
Uh, yeah. I’m not doing that anymore. I think last time I stretched out that word, it broke my blog.
Hejibits, written by John Kleckner, is almost throwback to an earlier era. To read it is to remember of the days when the internet bubble was just bursting, Homestar Runner ruled the internet, Weird Al Yankovic experienced a new burst in popularity with “White and Nerdy”, Kanye West was calling people out on his blog for being squidbrains, and webcomics were about roommates and done in MS Paint. To read Hejibits is to reminisce of the days when Explosm.net was just starting out. Remember Cyanide and Happiness? Of course you do, you old fart.
