If you don't have a lot of time to spare I would point you toward "An Ode to People" and "Kiss the Cook", each of which can be read in just a few minutes.
I haven't cast my vote yet but I'm leaning towards Jake Spooky. While I normally don't care for animation or sound in my webcomics, this one is pulling them off pretty well.

18. Krazy Kat: 1916·1917 (George Herriman). Aunque tal vez no sea la lectura más fácil del mundo sí que es fascinante este viaje en el tiempo a los inicios del noveno arte y descubrir cómo eran los cómics hace casi 120 años cuando el medio estaba prácticamente en pañales y estaba todo por inventar. Ese Ignatz de trazos simples pero increíblemente expresivos es una de mis debilidades comiqueras, durante mucho tiempo lo usé como avatar en diferentes webs. Esta edición de La Cúpula puede ser un poco incómoda de leer y difícil de acomodar luego en alguna estantería, pero la calidad enorme que tiene lo compensa de sobra.

I'm not affiliated with SPX or any of the nominees, so I guess I don't have to be impartial. My vote is going to Rigsby WI. All of the nominees are worthy contenders and worth reading, but for me, Rigsby stands above the rest. It excels in both art and story, which is something you can't always say about comics from a solo creator.

The Legend of La Mariposa by James Lawrence

(platform: Tumblr)Comic action about a luchadora who battles demons and the like. Mostly silly, but occasionally touches on themes like the nature of choice?

Voting is now open (until September 13th) for the 2024 Ignatz Awards, the festival prize of the Small Press Expo. Following is a short run-down of the nominees for Outstanding Online Comic. You don't have to go to the convention to vote (I'm not), and you don't have to vote in every category. You also don't have to vote at all if you don't want to. You can just read & enjoy these fine comics.

Voting for the 2023 #Ignatz awards is underway and will close on September 8th.
Nominees:
https://www.smallpressexpo.com/ignatz-nominees/Ballot request form:
https://www.smallpressexpo.com/ignatz-ballot-request/I lack the time/energy to put together a thread like I did last year, but, for anyone who's interested, I think it would be feasible to read enough of the "Online" nominees before the deadline to form an opinion.
One caveat: SPX's link to Reimena Yee's "The God of Arepo" is wrong; use: https://reimenayee.itch.io/the-god-of-arepo

#introduction #Ignatz is the alter-ego of Belgian #guitarist Bram Devens. With a guitar and a few effects, he creates his very own style of improvisation-inspired Euro blues #music.
In 1910, the illustrator George Herriman created the Krazy Kat comic strip. Ignatz, a vicious mouse, was Krazy Kat’s arch enemy, and his favourite pastime was to throw bricks at Krazy Kat’s head (who misinterpreted the mouse’s actions as declarations of love).

CW: comic book mayhem
1) #KrazyKat by George Herriman
2) #Peanuts (Schulz was right to hate this name) by Charles M. Schulz
3) #LittleNemoInSlumberland by Windsor McCay
4) #Popeye by E.C. Segar
Probably no one will give me too much grief over these first four. After this it gets more idiosyncratic.

Nach #Ignatz sind wir schon fleißig am Aufräumen.
Der Sturm mag wüten,
wir wiegen mit ihm, dann
richten wir uns auf. -

Bin ich zu jung oder ist das ein neues Phänomen der letzten Jahre, dass die #Bahn wegen Sturm den Fernverkehr einstellt?
Gibt es Erhebungen ob mehr Bäume pro Sturm Umknicken oder nicht?
