The art is atrocious for the first year or two, but the writing is pretty consistent. So if you've started it and it didn't grab you, don't worry, move on. I'd suggest Freefall.

I did a full reread after Episode 1 completed just recently. I discovered that during times I was checking it daily, I'd often now forgotten what happened. Sections I batch-read, I mostly remembered. So I'll definitely stick to batch reading. Looks like I don't consolidate the daily strips into Story unless there's a bunch of them. Cheers - Jaimie -- Squawk! Pieces of Nine! Squawk!

Well, I've read it from start to current, and I think, if you want to start reading when it gets science-fictional, you should start with the entrance of Hannelore, whose father owns the space station and built another character's mechanical hand (which, note, are not in very common use yet). But the semi-anthropoid robots, I think, are there from the beginning. -- Dorothy J. Heydt Vallejo, California djheydt at gmail dot com

Oh, are we doing webcomics again? I also read QC and xkcd. I'm still into Girl Genius. Plus a bunch more: Namesake (of which I've completely lost the thread of the plot, and need to go do an archive binge re-read) I was disappointed by Aaron Williams' willingness to lie down with puppies, but his comics PS238 and Use Sword on Monster are still good.
