Webcomic Catch-Up Update December 2017

OK, I've had to re-work my webcomic catch up.  I don't remember whether I mentioned it here or not, but I realized that this is the only way to make this practical.  Basically, every day, I'll read my caught-up comics, no matter what.  I know that I'll only occasionally be able to work my way through an archive, but I don't want to fall behind on whatever I've already done.  This should also be nice for me, since I miss the old days, when I read my webcomics daily. 

I'm caught up on the following webcomics: 
  • Unspeakable Vault of Doom
  • xkcd
  • Little Vampires
  • Maq #041
I've also moved Picatrix from active to hiatused, since it seems to have disappeared.  I've done the same for Real Life Comics, since it hasn't updated in over 2 years. 
The next one in queue is Legostar Galactica, which is going to be rough, since it updated almost daily when I was reading it.

Life Update March/April 2017

OK, I want to write this to let you all know that March and April were swamped for me due to some major undertakings over at Real Life Job.  I ended up deciding to just skip March's blogging, but that went over into April, too.  Things are clearing up now, though, so I should be able to do 3 posts per month for May forward.  I might try to make up the posts that I skipped, but probably not, unless I end up with lots of free time somehow. 
This also means that I made literally 0 progress on the great webcomic catch-up of 2016-2017 these past 2 months.

Webcomic Catch-Up Update: February 2017

I have done 0 webcomic reading this month.  February kind of flew by.  Also, Legostar Galactica is the next one on my catch-up list, and it's been posting 7 days per week for the last 4 years, so that's a lot of reading to do.  Thankfully, though, tomorrow is Wednesday, and I'm considering making Wednesdays be Webcomic Wednesdays for now, as a way to hasten my catching-up.  We'll see how it goes tomorrow.

Webcomic Catch-Up Update: January 2017

The Maq#041 archive was actually not a long read, but sadly the comic seems to have stopped updating in November of 2015.  I've just started the Legostar Galactica catch-up, which will be tough, since it updated 7 days per week and I'm assuming that it kept up the pace over the past 3 years.  I'll be lucky to be all the way through it by the end of February.

The Great Webcomic Catch-Up: December 2016 Update

So, I made basically 0 progress on the Maq#041 archive, meaning that I've made basically 0 progress on the great webcomic catch-up this month.  That's not entirely surprising, given how the month's gone. 
I'm also considering re-working how I'm scheduling the catch-up.  I'm considering staying caught up with those comics that I've done already, and then treating the rest the way that I did whenever I add a webcomic to the list:  Read the archive (though, in this case, not the full archive), then include it in my daily checks.  I'm not sure yet, though.  I'll let you all know.

Webcomic Catch-Up Update: November 2016

Once again, real life got in the way this month, though in a different way.  I managed to finish off the Real Life Comics archive, up to and including December 10th, 2015, which is the last known episode.  I'm working on catching up on my reading of Maq #041, but I don't even remember what was going on at all, so there's going to be some overlap again. 
I'm definitely going to take a more thorough dive into the old webcomic pile in December and January.  I want to be able to finish catching up in February, or maybe March, so that I can then do a new catch-up right after that and then finally get to the point where I just read the webcomics every night - and actually remember what's going on in the ones where that's relevant.  That, after all, is the overall goal of this:  to get back to the point where I've got the routine relaxation every night of reading my webcomics.

Webcomic Catch-Up Update: October 2016

I didn't do much webcomic catch-up this month, but I expected that, given a bunch of real life.  I'll try to do more catching up in the coming months, but that'll be harder with the upcoming holidays. 

Little Vampires:  I caught up through October 28, 2016, "Happy Halloween from Portmonster".  Hooray! 
Girls Don't Play Games:  I don't remember this one that well, but, when I checked on it earlier this month, the site was being revamped, so I couldn't access the archive, anyway. 
Real Life Comics:  It looks like this one died in late 2015, but I haven't caught up with the archive yet, either.  I'm pretty sure that I'm re-treading some stuff, but I don't remember where exactly I left off; I'm caught up through January 31, 2013.

Webcomic Catch-Up Update: September 2016

FYI, I've made some progress on catching up on webcomics.  I figure that I'll make these monthly reports, since I didn't get through many this month.  This will also be as much for my own reference as anything.  Here we go: 

The Unspeakable Vault of Doom:  I caught up through vault 544.  Overall, the comic's OK.  It makes more sense as one comic of many that I read, and I think that it's the only comic dedicated to Lovecraftian humor that I had on my list. 
The Book of Biff:  I caught up through the latest episode, which was some time in 2014.  I've moved it from active to hiatused. 
xkcd:  I caught up through episode 1739:  Fixing Problems.  This comic has gotten better over the years, or maybe it's just accumulated more gems in its long run.

Little Vampires:  I only started catching up on this one.  I don't remember exactly where I left off on my previous catch-up, so I started at the beginning of the Welcome to Monsterdell arc. 

I'll let you guys know how this goes next month.
