    Whenever there's an article about webcomics I can't help but think about this Checkerboard Nightmare strip. http://www.checkerboardnightmare.com/d/20050620.ht ml

    Interesting art, usually good writing, characters that are more than one-dimensional... something that most print comics are lacking, these days.

  10. 2D has nothing to do with it. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on When Videogames Know They're Videogames
    Though the term "fourth wall" originally referred to the space between the audience and a play, the expression is used so often in talking about comics that the surface of the paper has practically become the primary meaning of the fourth wall.

    If you start getting into dimensionality, you have to acknoledge that there are walls below and above the subject as well, so the fourth wall becomes the sixth wall. It doesn't count because the upper and lower walls are the floor and ceiling, so...

    Ues the term, don't worry about it.

    Incidentally, is anyone else sick of webcomics that frequently dip into idiotic "our ratings are slipping" fourth-wall breakage? Bleh. They even use the term fourth wall, and the comics from each are interchangeable, except for Checkerboard Nightmare, which has the guts to do practically nothing but fourth wall breakage.
