Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
I've noticed many new users on the most recent thread so I thought this might be fun. Post the comic page that you started reading from and if there was any specific thought, story or emotion you remember related to it
For me it was this: http://www.goblinscomic.com/05052010/
Kin was just so happy! And my friend had described it as a comedy comic based on DnD. I figured I was in for laugh after laugh with some action. Then I got to the Brassmoon arc and found out why Kin was so happy to be free. Changed my perspective on that page for sure.

Near the start, around time the GAP was formed, can't remember exact page as I read though from the start.

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
I started somewhere around here I think http://www.goblinscomic.com/07272012/. I know it was 5-6 months ago when a friend told me about Goblins.
Edit: this post seems ironic with my current avatar. Just noticed

Yes, I've been lurking for quite a long time, almost created an account when Dies was being torn up by the demoness, then got too lazy for it, but this time I had the motivation x)
I don't remember much about what I thought, though. I was wondering why the hell was there an undead dwarf who was nomming his finger on this page, and why the hell were there two characters that looked really the same :o

I finished running through the archives on the page that first introduced Biscuit: http://www.goblinscomic.com/10072011/

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
My first time was right after the Battle of Brassmoon City - right here: http://www.goblinscomic.com/12072009/ I think, though I'm not that sure. I think, there was an ad displaying the third panel

Actually, tomorrow it would be exactly 1 year. I don't remember exactly how I found it but I think it was through someone's blog. Today it is my favorite comic. (And forum!)

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
I think I started reading right around the time the FMK entered the MoM. I remember I was reading SMBC, and it linked to Goblins one day, saying that it was good. It was right.

Been along time, so I can't remember the exact page, but it was somewhere around the time that Se├▒or Vorpal Kickasso was created.

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
IIRC, I started when someone linked me to this page, but it was around the time that this was the latest page.

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
I'm pretty sure this is the first page I ever saw of Goblins, being the latest updated at the time:
http://www.goblinscomic.com/01252011-2/
It was a good first impression of MinMax

As far as when I started reading; I would have to say, because I can't remember exactly:
it was either: http://www.goblinscomic.com/05012006/
or: http://www.goblinscomic.com/05132006/
Although the more I think about it I probably was introduced at the first link and became an addicted reader around the second link when I finally had the time and the want to read webcomics. Got introduced to the comic from a friend who was a webcomic-aholic and I was just starting into webcomics.

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
Oh, man. I don't even remember for sure it's been so long. It wasn't at the beginning, but it wasn't too long afterwards. It was somewhere in the first half of book one.
I'm going to guess here, give or take a couple of pages.

He wouldn't normally leave a battle against evil, but t'was for the best; for that which haunts him approaches, not by flesh or land, but by both.

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
Hmm, I started in about 2008 or 2009. I could probably check the archives for a suitable page, but frankly, I can't remember. 
But I remember reading the Snotlings forum too, although I guess I only posted there once or so.

Something else for the 'never noticed before' thread.willpell wrote:Is it just me or is Biscuit way larger compared to Fox in this comic than he would be during his later appearances (especially once aboveground)? He seems to be about three times her size in his first panel (by comparison with her size in the previous one - the fox tail does seem to have gotten a little larger between panels, but not much), while later (eg in the scene where they first meet up with Duv again), he looks more like twice her height.Glemp wrote:Well, the first time I came on I binged on the archives (and I've since reread portions of the archives several times), but I started reading 'live' around here:

Re: Where Did You Start Reading Goblins?
I discovered this comic around the time when Kore slaughtered all the monsters in their tavern, or whatever it was.
