You know, I don't imagine the best of 2010 list going up, so I'm just gonna post what I wrote up for all of you to see.
This is a little note that should go up with this list: None of this is in any real order. These are just good comics. It doesn't matter how they were done. I don't think I should categorize it, because that isn't how I approach things. Prepare yourself for some reading. There might be a lot of it.
Great Comics and Artists 2010
Dipuc vs. Flying Brick
http://entervoid.com/comic.php?id=2617 One of the funniest comics all year. It was the opening to a fine series of comics by Mister Kent, and I don't even think he should have won that fight. On that note, Mister Kent:
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=6375 He does a lot of good work. I don't know how he loses so much, as he turns in amazing comics. He even works on multiple ones at once. I hope you stick around. Oh, and your artist battle with cultmaster? Marvelous.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=252 Knomer. KNOMER. You're awesome. One of the best inkers on the site. Not only that, a returning veteran. You have done some sweet work this year.
Cole Thistlethorn vs. Sam- Sam's side
http://entervoid.com/view/2620/1/01 Sixtem has come a long way, and I'm glad someone was around to inherit the Hiemie Curse. But this specific comic was my favorite from you this year. Mainly because of how well you did your opponent.
http://entervoid.com/comic.php?id=2972 In relation to Sixtem and Knome, the wonderful three way tag team with Knome, Sixtem and Nachte. I greatly recommend this comic to everyone.
Anything done using Wynn
http://entervoid.com/character/1711 Jaz, another one of those astounding artists I wish I would see more comics from. If you had any more time to work on your comic in the SDT, you would have demolished me and easily won. EASILY.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1670 Edgar Grimsette. Krat, Edgar is so likable. I wish there were more characters with good character flaws such as yours. He is the opposite of flat. He is a very deep character, and as I will say many times to many people: Please make more comics.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=2937 Vanilla Wafer. Please do more comics. Your have a fun art approach. And there's a reason I used Ellis Dee in a later fight. She's awesome.
On that note, you too sloane
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=1021 .... and even MORE on that note. This:
http://entervoid.com/comic/2879 The Robo Riot. Fantastic fight. All three of you turned in three wonderful comics with interesting settings, art, and stories. More people should experiment on void, with art AND with writing. I get quite bored with the fights and machismo. The Evil organizations. Being a chosen one. I don't like much of that. Bores the crap out of me. You guys really didn't do that. Well played Gavin, Sloane, and Blindknight.
Speaking of
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=6167 Blindknight/The One Dark Knight. You've been cranking out a delightful quality this year. I liked your Scarmageddon comic. A lot.
Speaking of SCARMAGEDDON...
http://entervoid.com/view.php?id=2675&side=6&iid=01 Mr. Awesome's side. You shoulda won. You shoulda won soooo hard. It was so damn funny. I really enjoy the parallels of what he thought happened and what actually happened. Actually, props to you for all the work you have been doing with him. You've made one of the best characters on the site. Bravo.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1528 Vivian River. Drastic. Everything you do is a great comic. I don't know what else to say. Every. Thing.
http://entervoid.com/comic.php?id=2627 Bear vs. Ethel Chu - Bear's Side. I really wish the work you did with everyone with the Bullsi plot could have built more. The work with
http://entervoid.com/character/1716 Tycho and
http://entervoid.com/character/1703 Dood was building up for something I don't see on void anymore. A plot that could have encompassed the site. Everybody is trying to do their own thing. Make their own canon where their character is the coolest/toughest guy in town. There's nothing like the Mayor of Void anymore. Locations, talking about OTHER people's fights and characters and not just your own storylines. Character friendships and not just team-ups. It doesn't happen anymore. People aren't even aggressive anymore. People are trying to make every character friends with each other. There's no conflict.
Anyway, it was a great comic and I really wanted you to win.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=199 RTV. It is REALLY good to see you back and active. Not only that, you've been putting up some classy action comics. I even like how you seem to be building up to an ending for RTV. I REALLY hope there's an ending. We don't see many finished character arcs these days.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1737 MC Mac Money MURDA. Still one of the best characters to ever graze the site.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=7354 Orange. You came a long way in a short amount of time. You did a complete storyline. Boss. You won a tourney in your first year. Double Boss. Keep doing what you're doing. You make the site a better place.
http://entervoid.com/view/2638/2/01 Corry vs. Dark Crusader - Dark Crusader's Side. I legitimately really likes this comic. To be fair, I like ALL your Dark Crusader comics. He's really fun and I like him WAAAYYY better than Draxx. Keep using him. PLEASE.
Dr. Fabulous in the Company of David Birch
http://entervoid.com/comic.php?id=3539 I laughed for a long time. You make the BEST expressions. On a SIDE NOTE, I appreciate all you've been doing for Void lately. Glad to have you on board.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1638 Dr. Ethos. You rolled with a tough scar. I commend you for that.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=93 The Return of Ponbiki. Good to have you back. I love seeing oldbies. Mainly because of the great contrast in approach to new members. Variety is good.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=8162 Le Fred. Bold. FUCKING BOLD. Pretty much the first thing you do on the site is deathmatch the veteran, Monday (Who NEEDS TO TURN IN HIS FUCKING SECRET SANTA DRAWING). You lost, but those are some balls. Afterwards, you continued to make Beatles reference Lucy and make some of the best comics this year. Great job.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1774 Whitcomb + Papillion. Some of the best characters made this year. I just wish you fought more...
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1792 Leland. Another great character from a fun artist. Looking forward to more work.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1782 Doodle Dan. I like him.
http://entervoid.com/view.php?id=2911&side=2&iid=01 Fowlie's 24 hour comic. You did GREAT. Knocked it out of the park. I only wish you spent more time developing the start of the comic and making it look nice. The end didn't really work well. The heartfelt slice of life was amazing though. And on a side note, your recent collab BB is an amazing comic that you wrote. It's nice to see character development these days, and what you did with Nova was fantastic.
http://entervoid.com/profile.php?id=8515 Reavz. I don't know where you came from, but thank you so much for bringing a rarely seen genre that is even more rare to seen used well to Void. Romance. It's just not here. At all. Fantastic work. There's a lot of emotion in it. Please PLEASE stick around.
http://entervoid.com/comic.php?id=3522 Bhaav & Maansiik. You were the the best late year surprise on the site. I love these characters and the setting they exist in.
http://entervoid.com/character.php?id=1832 Haven, you used to suck... you used to suck so hard.... but you came back with these great comics. Portabello is a fun character that people should use more on the site. ESPECIALLY YOU. Even if you are from Pittsburgh.
Top Artists
All of you motherfuckers. By that I mean EVERYONE ON THE SITE WHO MAKES COMICS. Keep making comics. KEEP MAKING THEM.
Also: People from the invitational who haven't come back. WHERE ARE YOUUUUU?
