Hey Duck Community!

After binge-reading Lore Olympus at 2 AM (again), I've been obsessing over this question: What's the secret sauce that makes a webcomic impossible to put down?

Is it:

Pacing (that “one more chapter” cliffhanger hook)?

Art style (like the vibrant colors in Sarah's Scribbles)?

Character voices (when dialogue feels lived-in, like in Questionable Content)?

Update consistency (even if slow, like xkcd's reliable schedule)?

I'll go first: For me, One-Punch Man nails panel flow—their action scenes feel like a movie storyboard, while quiet moments use negative space brilliantly.

Debate time:

What webcomic ruined you with its brilliance? (For me: Heartstopper's emotional authenticity)

Worst pet peeves? (Mine: When speech bubbles overcrowd gorgeous art!)

Artists, readers, lurkers—weigh in! Let's dissect the magic. 🎨✨
