When Rodney left it stopped being funny and slowly spiraled into generic romance and drama.
Sinfest is a sadder loss. You will never see a bigger difference between first and last comic strip. The first ever Sinfest strip is still best Sinfest.
- danharaj 7y agoI just took a look at sinfest after not reading it in several years. I read back a few days in the archive and I liked it. The style has gotten cuter. Could you explain what you don't like about it?
- angersock 7y agoDecent summary here: http://badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Sinfest http://badwebcomicswiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Sinfest Tldr, he took the soul out of the comic and the characters to push an agenda, and devoted cycles to mocking his fans instead of keeping up the wholesome stuff. This is like the one case where that isn't an exaggeration.

- knorker 7y ago> The patriarchy objects, as a patiriarchy does. People read sinfest for the humor. You can call it offensive or destructive humor, but it was humor nonetheless. Then the comic switched away from humor to being moral lecturing. It's not the same audience, so naturally you'll lose most of the old readership, and have to acquire your entirely new audience.
- cheschire 7y agoRodney left precisely because Fred wanted to do less goofy comedy. I've gone back and purchased the first two compilations, and they're rather thick. There's a clear transition when Fred switches from webcomic style panel layouts to a clear full page manga layout. There are little Piro joke comics under every one of the web-style comics just to fill the gap, and the storylines are really all over the place thematically. Once they parted ways, things become way more coherent, if a bit boring for folks who made the jump over from the Bench comics that MT did for Penny Arcade.
