The amount of shittiness in this comic has no limits. I could go on about the horrors of the comic's infinite unfunniness, that goes hand in hand with and is "balanced out" by the only slightly funnier dramatic parts that consist of miscarriages and long video game loading times (IT'S NOT FAIR, IT'S JUST NOT FAIR) but I'd really rather not and have you listen to someone who knows what they're talking about.
What I really want to complain about is the artwork. I mean, jesus. The only thing I can ever think whenever I see those hideous expressionless droopy-eyed designs is "How can you get away with this shit?"
Figure 1(above): 1/4 of a typical Control Alt Delete comic. (The other 75% is identical.)
With only one or two exceptions, wherever I go I appear to sing solo when I ask "What's up with their god damned mouths??" Here. Let me show you what a mouth looks like, for someone whose eyes are too droopy to see them and/or was too busy talking to give a shit.
I might not be the best artist, but I know enough about simple fingerpaints-level observation to know that mouths don't look like that. Alot of people do draw them like that, some argue that it's a just a cute stylistic thing they like to do, and that's ok if done dynamically. But in this case it just doesn't WORK. Their facial features don't flow, they POP!! Animating any of those characters looks like as much fun as putting my nuts in a vice.edit:
I also made this video
WAHHHHHHHHHHHH VIDEO GAMES ARE MY WHOLE LIFE I'M GONNA GO MAKE A CARTOON ABOUT HOW HARD THEY ARE
