List Mystery Webcomics HERE, please

Submitted by kjc on November 7, 2005 - 01:23

Hey folks,

I'm looking for any mystery webcomics (including ones that cross-over into other genres, like the supernatural) online.

Ones I already know (or which have been pointed out to me):

    Wow! This is the coolest thread ever!

    Rapid Eye Movement is another mystery graphic novel by me. It's early work, but it's free-- http://amazingmontage.tripod.com/trespassers/rempro.html

    And Motel Art Improvement Service by Jason Little is a classy followup to his excellent Shutterbug Follies!
    http://www.beecomix.com/

    I don't know if The Spider Cliff Mysteries is really a mystery series, but it looks pretty damned cool!

    This is not exactly a webcomic, but some of the episodes are more webcomic-like than others. The illustrator is Josh Neufeld, a well-respected cartoonist and creator of the truly great graphic novel A Few Perfect Hours. In any case, it's an honest-to-god mini-mystery: http://www.mysterynet.com/see/

    A Miracle of Science is an excellent sci-fi mystery/detective comic that's been one of my favorites for quite a while.

    Another cool comic which I've only discovered very recently is Agnes Quill, about a teenage girl detective who Sees Dead People. Creepy and strange, but fun.

    Hey ya'll! I took that lovely list of mystery-type webcomics ya'll provided and checked all the links, dug up creator information, and turned them into a nice clean list: http://comixpedia.com/node/3044 Since I put together all that linky goodness ("show source" should make all the raw html appear), someone (anyone?) should feel free to adapt this over to comixpedia.org - which does NOT have a "mystery" subcategory (only a crime/noir one). If no one gets around to it, I'll do it myself when I have time (which probably won't be until the Xmas holidays; but in the meantime, I'm kinda running a 'zine here, in case anyone thinks I'm slackin' on the wiki).

    Mystery is classed as a sub-genre to Crime-noir, correct? I'm pretty sure that's what Wikipedia says, but I thought I'd double check it's true.

    On the topic of mystery webcomics, this post in Bob Stevenson's blog is particularly intriguing? Anybody else see the spot?

    " Microsoft ran an ad during tonight's game four of the baseball World Series - for a webcomic! I feel a fool for not knowing who the guy was. Perhaps they made the whole thing up, but there were a solid 30 seconds of a guy talking about his detective webcomic and how he creates and distributes it using only a computer. The Microsoft angle was that XP lets you do anything you can imagine.

    "Any info on this one out there?"

    I remember that commercial! But I think they were advertising the service with an actor (he didn't look like anyone I've met or seen pictures of) rather than a real webcomicker. Never heard anything further...
