This is tomorrow's strip for about 15 minutes!

Billie and Ruth are locked in a smelly alcoholics paradise. Mary has turned into Snidley Whiplash and wants to make everyone on the floor to blackmail Ruth. Walky has shit himself and become retarded. New adult has actual human shit in her hair.

Hopefully patreanon can give us the new strip at Midnight!

What the fuck is with this bitch's hair? Did someone drizzle chocolate on her scalp?

Why is their chocolate sauce on that woman's head?

*there

theyre*

Willis cannot into subtlety.

I bet that the next strip with Mary will have her yelling at the RM in an overly cartoonist and unrealistically villainous manner, revealing her plan to blackmail Ruth by "accident".

>Everyone has dot eyes but Mary

I haven't cared about this series in forever.

Did that bitch who ran around her dorm in roller skates get any comeuppance? Is Willis still trying to convert Joyce to atheism? Is Becky still a cunt? Why does this shit still have an audience?

I can only fathom that she's supposed to have had a blonde dyejob but now her brunette roots have grown back. With cursory research this is apparently a fashion trend, but Willis makes it look like she's got brown sludge because of how much it doesn't contour like hair would.

Well I finally fucking did it. I commissioned someone to draw fucking BBC NTR porn for this fucking comic.

Here is tomorrow's strip!

The residence manager's hair bugs me. That's not what grown-out roots look like, even when they're stylized. They grow out from the part-line, not in a weird bowl-cut swirl around the head.

>Did that bitch who ran around her dorm in roller skates get any comeuppance?

No, but she spent thousands of dollars to throw a pie in Mary's face

>Is Willis still trying to convert Joyce to atheism?
Maybe

>Is Becky still a cunt?
Yes

>Why does this shit still have an audience?
The only people who read is Highschoolers and us I think

But who's cycling whom? This is important, since nobody here likes Buff Diglett.

No
No
Yes

That....that looks like he fucking drew it recently.

Please, I beg you Willis. Just don't let the actual adult sympathize with Ruth and nobody but Mary gets punished

LOL THAT'S LITERALLY SHIT ON HER HEAD SHE IS A LITERAL SHITHEAD

>Nothing happens.
Bravo, Willis.

It's just a bunch of random black dudes. I'm gonna' keep the character a secret.

No it's not Becky or Dina.

>Oh, Ruth. You and I have such a developed history together that this moment in which I express disappointment in your current situation makes for a much more poignant scenario than it would seem. If only the reader could have ever seen how much pride I took in you handling your job, instead of just showing up for what may be the first time in several years, if I had ever even shown up at all prior to yesterday. Oh, Ruth.

>Fucking RUTH was "the ONE R.A. with her shit together" at this school

What sort of nightmare dystopian college IS this? Even without the secret shit now coming to light Ruth didn't bother to hide doing shit that would get an RA canned at any normal school.

so the last strip is on the DOA website and there's already a lot of people asking what's with the Room Manager's hair

if this were edited to look like she was rolling her eyes as she said this, it would be much improved

Willis has gone on record to hand wave Ruth making the cut despite being one of the worst people in modern webcomics by saying that all of the other applicants were worse than her. This, as far as I can tell, is the first in-comic indication of that.

No seriously, I can't be the only one who notices how fucking shoddy this strip looks compared to like, the last months worth right?

Look at that poster for fucks sake, he never actually had such obvious...what's it called? Pixels? Whatever, that jagged poster edge, that's not something he's done before.

Jaggies.
I think Willis uses some kind of 3D modeling program for rooms so that he doesn't have to actually draw them himself.

He probably just made the image of the poster and warped it to look okay at that angle in Photoshop or a similar program. It's the lazy easy route basically

Can't wait to hear what the explanation is...

Well, sorta thought this happened.

Later, guys. I'll guess I'll pop in once another Toedad-level stupid arc rears its head.

Why does the adult have fish lips?

Who fucking cares.

I just realized that Willis still has the rapist boy running around so that he can have him be the next books villain.

Mary's getting expelled and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

If she does, someone here should totally make a spinoff webcomic focusing on what Mary does now that she doesn't have to put up with Willis' shitty writing. "The Gospel According To Mary", perhaps?

All the other halls must have battle royale/lord of the flies type situations going on.

How could Mary get expelled? Her only real crime is fucking up Carla's skates, which I wouldn't imagine to be expulsion worthy.

That or they just never stuck around. I have a feeling it's less about them being terrible people and more like nobody wanted to actually babysit teenagers.

Hate speech. Ruth heard it. No, it doesn't matter that right now she's mentally unsound, they'd believe her in a heartbeat.

When the skating thing gets mentioned none of the people in charge will care that Carla was skating, they'll only focus on Mary.

Look, either Mary's getting expelled or Willis is gonna' do some stupid shit where she gets moved to another dorm where there's nothing but lesbians and wiccans.

It's certainly doing a great disservice to the real IU RAs. My little brother's there now and his RA makes pancakes for them on the weekends and hasn't ever threatened her charges' femurs. I don't think Ruth's ever made pancakes for anybody.

So she'll be friends with Willow and Tara, then? :)

Okay, can the person in charge of the DOA edits tumblr post this? I find it fucking hilarious.

Probably not, he needs a designated whipping girl. Mary won't get any serious punishment, Willis needs someone to dump all of his hate on.

Done.

...

you already posted this fuck off

Well, at like, the last 10 posts at the thread.

Hey, that's not so bad. I got a decent emotional response outta that

fuck that, keep it up. it's something other than the same seven things that keep being said in these threads

I like it.

There aren't that many characters in relationships, it has to be either Marcie, Malaya, Dorothy, Walky, Ruth, or Billie.

marcie and malaya arent in a relationship

FIRE HER ASS!

I thought they were fucking. It'd also work if you used that stretched definition of NTR that some porn uses. If you did that it'd also open up Robin, Leslie, Ethan, Danny, and Joyce. While Joyce NTR would include Becky, you could skate by on a technicality since Becky wouldn't be getting the BBC.

Roz makes for a far better antagonist than Mary.

Ethan and Danny literally won't fuck or be in a relationship because it might make Amber sad/mad

not a lot of NTR fodder there

Why does she have chocolate syrup on her head?

A lot of people on Willis' website are calling her Puddinhead and I'm wondering how he will respond to all the negative feedback since it's technically making fun of his drawing ability

How long has willis been drawing for?

Sure, if they want to.

since 98 I believe, he was one of the first webcomic creators back in the day

If Willis could just back away from giving every single fucking character a single bang in the center of their forehead, his shitty attempt at hair variation would look slightly less terrible.

Too bad he can't.

Longer than that, actually. He's been drawing Ultracar in various capacities since 1987.

itswalky.tumblr.com/post/142189348242/my-oldest-fictional-character-is-29-years-old

20 YEARS?
Oh my god please tell me that this comic is a fraction of what he's capable of

Look at his political beliefs.

Tell me. Do you really, really think he believes in self improvement?

>I thought Ruth was the ONE RA who had her shit together
Wow. The corruption goes all the way to the top.
Also shouldn't a residence manager have keys in case of an emergency?

well hes not putting any effort into it, so i guess hes probably capable of more

He used to be way better, if unrefined. Probably because he used to actually try instead of just scribbling blobhands and 3/4 angles then fill-tooling the 4th panel white.

The kind of college that's just summer camp for all effective purposes. Oh, you thought college was for education, but it's actually to 'discover yourself'.

...

If only he had not forgotten how to draw beefy men.

To be fair a lot of Araki's characters look pretty much exactly the same now. It's almost like he forgot how to draw the old Jojo's so he just slaps Gappy's face on them.

Yeah after part 4 he slowly started same facing but it's still good.

Only in a better comic.

'87 is when he was really young, right? I don't think it's fair to count that. He's shown terrible growth with just '98 to present.

This would be a lot better with just better coloring. Leave it to the manchild to make all his characters look like plastic.

Wow, I've never seen Araki's work from before his Fist of the North Star phase in part 1.

I didn't get a chance to ask this last thread...

Was this a Patreon-only comic, or was it an early strip that regular readers will see later on?

patreon only

I think Jotaro's early part 3 hat makes even less sense than it normally does.

It's only gotten more plasticky as it's gone on. It's jarring to see how he used to actually try to make hair look like strands rather than an undifferentiated plastic mold.

Only Araki knew where Jotaro's hair stopped and his hat began.

Also to that user with the love for yellow dress Joyce, here's a picture I've never seen posted here.

Did Joyce lose her toes due to frostbite?

>...what's it called? Pixels?
Aliasing? If you're referring to how the diagonal edge looks like it's dotted and not solid, which happens when stretching/skewing images.

Ugh, the more I stare at these character designs, the hokier they get. It's a shame to see an artist give up so severely on their work.

>a fraction of what he's capable of
He was able to make these in 2011. The art is just like everything else--he's capable of doing it well, but too lazy/self-absorbed to actually try.

Carol used thalidomide.

Even if he kept the crappy writing and story-planning, I would be more likely to read the comic with this art style than the bland and simplistic one he insists on using.

Maybe we could butter him up to give more of a crap. ..... Hahahahahahaha.

Too bad Dumbing of Age is designed to be churned out garbage.

Hot damn, with this art he could release full pages weekly rather than single strips daily, and be more like an actual comic book.

Although some user brought up that his schedule works on a gambler's business model, maybe a weekly schedule would screw with that.

>keys
Literally in her hand.

If we're dreaming about DoA having better art, we might as well dream about better writing too.

i mean if he draws that much better when he tries its not hard to imagine hed write better too
i wonder what it would be like

>Although some user brought up that his schedule works on a gambler's business model, maybe a weekly schedule would screw with that.
Yay! That was me!

>Willis's comics create a sense of intrigue that is honestly blocked every single time something interesting could happen.

>It's highly related to addiction/gambling models, for me at least. You take a gamble by checking the comic. It has a 10% chance of being worth your time, like spending a dime at a slot machine. Something will occasionally pique your interest, convincing you that the 10% chance is worth the time. And it's only a few seconds out of your day, so why not shoot for that 10% chance?

I think that's part of why he switches characters/plots so suddenly.

He baits us with a plot hook, and we have to hang onto the edge of our seats (exaggeration) to see what happens next.

Then he swaps characters, so you have to sit and wait to find out the result of the latest cliffhanger.

I say it works on a gambling model because it reminds me of Candy Crush and other such games.

The first few levels make you feel good. They're designed to be as easy as possible without you feeling like you're being pandered to.

Then, it gives you slightly more challenging levels. They're just easy enough that you can get them without much difficulty but hard enough that you feel good about doing harder puzzles.

Then they start trying to siphon your wallet by paying for more lives.

You do really well for, say, the first 20 levels, but then you hit Level 21 (an example number). Level 21 is HARD. The next thing you know, you've hit a wall.

You rocketed through the first 20 levels without needing extra lives. You had a great lunch break with this new game. But now you're stuck. And you just want to beat one more level. You might be more apt to spend money on hearts so you can finish up.

Then they give you a few more easy levels before you hit a wall again.

That's what Willis's writing feels like to me.

So I think that the addiction model would definitely be more difficult to translate into full pages.

His whole goal is to phone this dang comic in, so putting effort into drawing and doing whole pages and stuff like that would be counter-intuitive to his goals.

He tries to sucker his readers in with plot hooks and cliffhangers. He would have to more carefully consider them if he were to give up the "strip a day" concept.

It's the comic literally shitting itself.

Alright here's another strip.

Now I have a question, should I have a comedic strip as an inbetween, or should I go straight to Andy for more dramatics and save the comedy strip at the end?

go for the dramatics

Dramatics, the sudden-comedy-right-after-tragedy in DoA is jarring as hell.

When will they fuck the tranny?

>New adult has actual human shit in her hair.

It's just an incompetent attempt to convey she's a bottle blonde and needs to update her roots.

There isn't.

That would be saying "Why is they are chocolate sauce on that woman's head?"

The context of the rest of the sentence should have been a clear indica of the correct spelling to use

Think, man. THINK before you post.

I want to tied down with children in an unhappy marriage with Joyce.

I guess he's not the seal of approval

Were the only other applicants Elizabeth Bathory, Vlad the Impaler, Hitler and Hillary Clinton?

>it's technically making fun of his drawing ability

He has drawing ability?

THose are some actually decent poses
