Fourth Review

Loserz

Loserz has been running for a couple years and is created by Erik Schoenik.

Art

The art started out pretty basic, though anyone can see Schoenik has talent, in the years the comic has been running it's become much more refined and unique. These days the art is quite good, clean inking, attractive character designs, and some good expressions throughout.

Schoenik is pretty good at storytelling, mostly using a 3 panel design. Occasionally he breaks out and gives us some larged colored pages that show off his art chops nicely.


Writing

The writing has evolved as the art has. Mostly the jokes are contained with a single strip, and focus on Jodie the Slut, Erik the Stoner, and Ben the Loser. Occasionally, and more frequently the characters discuss their individual take on the world around them, and this is where Loserz shines.


Overall

Loserz has nice art, and distinct likable characters, which is rare in webcomics. Schoenik needs to bring more continuity and character development and I feel he's working on it. In my opinion this is a comic to watch for a while, and this year it's finally living up to it's potential.
