Quotes about Sinfest

edit
  • The first seven years it was coffee and revenge. That's what kept me going. My attitude was, "I'll show them. I'll show them all!"
  • The webcomics landscape looked incredibly different back then, with what comparatively few comics there were mostly being about video game humor, sporadically updated and crudely drawn. But Tatsuya Ishida's Sinfest stood out in that he was one of the few web cartoonists who seemed to know art, updated regularly, and didn't do tons of video game jokes that I didn't understand.
