Draft:Bad Webcomics Wiki

This is a draft that anyone is free to edit as they would a mainspace page. Do not add categories to draft pages; use {{draft categories}} instead for a view. Contributors should nominate draft articles for deletion only if they believe that the article is not applicable to RationalWiki's mission. Articles involving living persons must conform to our guidelines on biographies of living people.

"Con el bad" is Spanish for "With the bad." So their motto is "control the bad, with the bad," and they still try to sell themselves as a legitimate review site. Huh. Internet oldsters will recognize the logo as derived from the image from the internet shock site goatse.cx.

“”Daily, hundreds if not thousands of aspiring people try to reach the masses through works of fiction which follow none of the guidelines that make the respectable business of printed comics what it is. Bad webcomic creators are psychologically blind to their flaws, their egos are fed by the constant stream of ass-kissing supplied by their semi-literate fans who don't know any better. It is exactly these kinds of insults to art that we are here to document. With a process of open discussion, we will try to determine whether a webcomic is an epic failure with the help of harsh criticism and brutal honesty. We may not have the final word. But just have in mind we will NOT stand idly by while so many people pollute the web with their crap.

—Bad Webcomics Wiki

The Bad Webcomics Wiki is a wiki made for the purpose of giving "constructive" criticism to comics made on the internet that the website's reviewers see as "bad". Note the quotations, because many of the webcomics reviewed are actually not bad. Even the legendary Xkcd was once decried by the wiki as "poorly drawn nerd-groping garbage," though the review in question has since been considered archaic and not representative of their current opinion. They also go out of their way to defend Stonetoss, and that actually is considered representative of their current opinion, which tends to make their credibility and judgement rather questionable. As one could probably imagine, most RationalWikians don't take their criticisms very seriously.^{[citation NOT needed]}

Most of their discussions are made on their official Tapatalk forum, though they apparently also have a Discord server, which currently has approximately 80 members.

Background

“”This is a blog where I can cuss out shitty webcomics and laugh as their fans scramble to defend them, nothing more. You can say I am someone who doesn't matter, and I'd agree with you. I'm a pseudonym. A fake name. I am "John Solomon", who until yesterday did not exist. What I do here isn't to appease you, because I say you are a fucking dickless prick. Isn't the internet a wonderful thing?

—John Solomon, experienced hypocrite

On the fateful day of June 25, 2007, the first post was made to a blog on Blogspot called Your Webcomic is Bad and You Should Feel Bad by one John Solomon. The name of the website was pretty self-explanatory, yet apparently Solomon felt the need to use the ever-so-fateful first post of that ever-so-fateful blog to make his intentions as clear as possible.
