Packin’ Snow
It’s time for Extra Life! A gaming comic that pioneers the radical idea of not actually telling jokes or having anything interesting to say with each post!
It’s bland in a way that boggles the mind. Normally comics are bland when the author fails at telling a joke but with Extra Life it seems Scott isn’t trying to tell any jokes in the first place. He just has drawings that are devoid of any point. The art is competent but dull, there’s no life to the pictures, though what they are is clear even if why they are is a mystery. Hilariously you can buy a print of any of the comics for the low price of $9.95!
The feeling this comic creates is one of lethargic confusion. It’s like having an Agatha Christie novel read to you by a monotone cow.
