i’m in the midst of a long game so i thought i’d put up a quick post to spotlight a webcomic that i rediscovered recently, brawl in the family. i’ve dipped into a fair number of video game-related online comics but haven’t really found many that kept me interested for very long. pixel pals, which i posted about last year was one exception, although it seems to be on indefinite hold. brawl in the family is another exception and is, fortunately, alive and kicking. it features charming hand-drawn, oftentimes extremely simplistic artwork befitting its first main character, kirby, but there’s a surprising range of art styles that have been used. although originally the strip’s focus was on kirby and the denizens of dream land, it expanded to include the brawl universe in general and has developed a wide range of humor, including a recurring series of sight gags of kirby and the surprising results of his copy ability and an april fool’s series of waluigi comics. i think video game fans, particularly nintendo fans, will enjoy the strip which i find to be more consistently funny than most, but don’t take my word for it: check it out yourself! oh, and be sure to check out this great mario cartoon with three alternate endings.
