I'm a big fan of Westerns, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any Western webcomics out there! For the past few years I've been watching them and reading the books, but just today I realized there might be people who share my affection and have put together some Western webcomics!

Oh, and hey! Any other Western fanatics out there? :smallbiggrin:

This isn't a Webcomic, but they have some issues up on the net:

Also, there's Big Iron on http://www.pixelstrips.com/
It doesn't have a lot of material, but it's pretty interesting!

And http://www.pedrolopez.dk/Tegneserier/Brutalflugt/Brutalflugt01.htm
Which I haven't read yet, but have bookmarked... huh

That seems to be an unexplored genre (except space cowboys) for Manga and Anime, but to all of you webcomic creators out there looking for ideas, don't get any ideas! heh heh

Anyway, my friend and I have been working on a Western webcomic for awhile. We have some real interesting ideas. If you have any ideas for western story elements that are original, please, send them in! They'd be greatly appreciated : )

Anyway, my two bits.

It isn't a webcomic, but Marvel is releasing a comic based on Stephen King's The Dark Tower which will most certainly be a western.

Cowboys and Aliens:

Well, as the name says. Sounds a little silly, but as far as I read it, it's an actually well-told story, and the art is amazing.

I do believe I saw the first episode of a completely non-magic, non-space travel Western themed Anime. It was absolutely terrible however. I think it had 'reign' in the title.
