Conrad's Closet: The web home of my buddy, Conrad. He's an affable fellow, but an unapologetic ecchi. Conrad has written a variety of interesting stories which vary in content from PG-13 to NC-17. Note: This is an age-restricted Yahoo! Group.
Dragoness Eclectic's Lair: A fitting title to be sure, considering the variety of content to be found here. The Dragoness has a long-running DBZ fanfiction that involves fan favorite Raditz, which I consider among the all-time best.
Insane Musings: The homepage of Jaelle, Orla, and their fanfiction which is often bizarre and always worth the read.
Juuhachi-gou's Place of Being: The homepage of Mirai Juuhachi-gou and the birthplace of Dragon Ball Super Z, one of the best DBZ fanfiction ever and the primary inspiration for my own works. Sadly, updates are few and far between.
Son Ryu's Designs: The site of my brother, who has made a tiddy little business of designing anime DVD collection boxes.
St. Harryhausen's Academy: A new site devoted to the monster-morphs of artist Heckfire, the hardest working man on the Internet. Some mature content involved. Note: This is an age-restricted Yahoo! Group.
Studio Shinnyo: As a writer, Strike Fiss is an order of magnitude above me, so it's not really fair to place him here. But this literary bard is also sorta my hero and trying to catch up to him is what makes me improve. Besides, he's responsible for penning what is quite possibly the best fanfiction ever, and it's...a Sailor Moon self-insert? Do you believe in miracles!!!
32-Bit Orchestra: Sprite comic author The Great Mister Chibi excels at random humor and obscure references, so much so that it might go over your head. But the professional look and variety of topics always make it worth a laugh.
8-Bit Budokai: A tournament-style comic by Jay Ibero (formerly Yajirobe) that uses mostly DBZ-based sprites. I'm in it, so it's got to be worth a look. ^_~
Alien Loves Predator: A photo comic by Bernie Hou that's rapidly gaining popularity. It focuses on the lives of Abe and Preston in the Big Apple. Highly professional and regularly updated.
Bob and George: A sprite comics that revels in its own randomness, BnG is the one to blame for the massive boom of Megaman-based sprite comics flooding the Internet. Tired old running gags aside, it's usually funny and updated daily.
Chugworth Academy: A comic that defies all categorization. Despite appearances, it's not a school girl comic. Contrary to the oft-topical humor, it's not a pop satire. And though author Dave Cheung first earned notority as hentai artist ScribbleKid, the art and humor is mostly just teasing cheesecake. All this aside, Chugworth Academy is a fine piece of work.
Crowded Street Advanced Inc.: Home to two excellent sprite comics in which Kagemaru cameos, Code: SAMBA by Are-X and Matt Walker's The Other Side. These two comics couldn't be more dissimilar, but enjoyable in their own ways.
Entertain Dome: Equal parts gamer culture and Mad TV-style commentary, ED runs the gammut of funny.
Las Lindas: A relatively new fur-comic by co-authors Chalo and Soulcat. Though the setting centers around a farm, the plot is relationship-based. Keen art, lots of potential.
Life On Forbez: Proof that racism is funnier when it's done by aliens. A very imaginative tale with some high quality art.
Little Saiyalings: If you crossed DBZ with Peanuts, you'd get something like this. The author of Life On Forbez takes familiar characters and juxtaposes them as children, who have appropriately hilarious adventures.
MegaTokyo: Piro and Largo live the dream of every otaku, both in real life and the comic itself. Authors of the Internet's most popular online manga, their counterparts wind up in Japan and experience a number of anime clichés, made fresh by creative writing. A genuinely funny and sometimes emotional masterpiece.
Misfile: A gender-swapping tale of street racing and absent-minded angels. Ambitious, yes, but engaging. The art style is reminiscent of eX-Driver (appropriately enough).
No Need For Bushido: NNFB in a nutshell: Rurouni Kenshin, by a white guy. A charmingly anachronistic approach to the age of samurai and ninja. Updated sporadically.
Nuklear Power: Home of the wildly popular 8-Bit Theater, one of the first and best sprite comics. As smart as it is funny.
Pawn: Not so much a webcomic as exercise for author Fredrik Andersson. A self-described "silly erotic fantasy" with adorable art and a grand story lurking beneath the surface.
Real Life: A roughly autobiographical comic about a houseful of gamers, but it's so much more than that.
Shortpacked!: Take an assortment of neurotic people, employ them in a toy store, shake vigorously; serves 4-6. The art style and general feel kinda reminds me of Maison Ikkoku, in a good way.
Sinfest: Don't let the name decieve you, this comic is actually pretty clean. It SO deserves syndication, but is probably better off without it, to keep the humor pure and unadulterated. Tatsuya Ishida's world is full of pimps and deities, but that doesn't even cover the half of it.
Sore Thumbs: Gamer geekfest or political commentary. You decided!
T.A. Vision: Another comic not intended for the kiddies. Incest, adultery, and the criminal underworld are common themes. Author Tang has a simplistic art style and decidedly foreign sense of humor that keeps me coming back for more.
Twisted Kaiju Theater: The anti-sprite comic, TKT photographs vinyl kaiju figures and fills their mouths with sharp tongues and sharper wit. Shin-Goji's perverse creation can and most likely will offend you at some point, but that doesn't keep it from being funny to the rest of us social misfits.
Venus Envy: The Internet's third transgender comic. We know this because author Erin counted. I'm not sure why I read this, but the characters are human enough that you might find yourself actually caring about them.
Anime Lyrics: A huge database of lyrics for songs from a variety of anime, J-Pop, and video games.
Anime Music Videos: Combining anime and music seems like a no-brainer, which unfortunately means there are many brainless dolts making AMVs. However, sometimes you find a diamond in the rough and that makes it worth the effort.
Anime Nfo: An index of virtually all anime and manga; particularly useful when researching to out-geek someone with trivia.
Daizenshuu EX: Possibly the last of the great Dragon Ball sites to remain in regular working order. After its death and resurrection, DEX seems to have suffered a slight fall from grace, but the news and site content are still top notch.
FanFiction.Net: The literary world is an open door for fans to inject their own creativity into their favorite titles.
FilmThreat: Sick of movie critics mistaking personal opinion for objective reviewing? Well, there's more of the same here. But nine times out of ten, these guys are totally on-the-ball.
GameFAQs: Full of in-depth walkthroughs, strategy guides, and cheat codes for even the most obscure titles, this is the end-all, be-all source of video gaming aid. Just do yourself a favor and steer clear of the message boards, as they tend to be occupied chiefly by mindless n00bs and the terminally l337.
The Grand Line: Greg Werner's new site, a collection of all things Japanese, with a particular focus on One Piece (of Crap). The old Ultimate Dragon Ball Z Information Site has been relegated to sub-page status. [sigh]
Halo.Bungie.Org: The only Halo fansite I visit with any regularity, this bastion of intelligence and professionalism puts the Quake fanboys to shame. Community focal point and ever-expanding source of knowledge into this FPS's universe.
Monster Zero News: "THE source of kaiju news on the web." That pretty much sums it up.
NarutoFan: Not just a massive Naruto fansite, but also the source of excellent scanlations for those of us sick of Viz taking creative liberties with the manga.
Seiyuu Database: Where you can look up the names of those elusive Japanese voice actors.
Toho Kingdom: Home of all things Toho, the makers of Godzilla and many other fine movies. Lots of neat stuff to check out, but most of the pages are incomplete. I may mine some of the "Lost Projects" for future Gaijin Eiga story ideas.
Toriyama's World: Starting off with a focus on Akira Toriyama's lesser known works, this site now prides itself on translating a large selection of new and sometimes lesser-known titles. Updates are infrequent; they really need to get their priorities straightened out.
The People's Sprites: No, not a video game site run by The Rock. But this is an excellent source of sprite rips and custom edits gathered by fans from all over the net.
Shyguy Kingdom: A fantastic sprite resource featuring content from popular games and unknown titles alike.
Sprites Inc.: "Your ultimate source for Megaman sprites." 95% of A Ninja in 20XX's base character sprites came from here.
Acts of Gord: Gord is owner and operator of a video game store and He doth smote the infidel customers. So damn funny, I read the entire site in one sitting.
Homestar Runner: Everybody! Everybody! A hilarious Flash site with tons of original cartoons and games. By far, the funniest part of HSR are Strongbad's Emails.
Red vs Blue: Home of the Blood Gulch Chronicles, pioneer of Halo machinima and still the funniest to date.
Resident Evil Plot Analysis: Started by Dan Birlew and then taken up by Thomas Wilde, this is THE comprehensive thesis concerning the Resident Evil video game series. It is a MUST read for any real RE fan as it provides tons of information and and in-depth look at its complex and engaging storyline. GameFAQs asks to not link directly to the FAQ, so I can only point you to the Plot Analysis link on Wilde's contributor page.
Wordplay's Godzilla: Wordplay is the homepage of Terry Rossio and Ted Elliott, professional screenwriters best known for their work on Shrek, Aladdin, and The Mask of Zorro. Rossio and Elliott were origingally chosen to write the screenplay for Tristar's Godzilla, but their script was canned due to budget concerns (even though the piece of slop handed to us by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich ended up costing far more than Rossio and Elliott's projected budget). This link takes you to the original screenplay they wrote, allowing you to see how awesome G'98 COULD have been.
So you've decided to link to me? It's much appreciated! I'll take any free advertising I can get. XD
Feel free to use any of these buttons on your site. Just make sure it links back to the main page.
