Homestuck begins when thirteen-year-old John Egbert (named via suggestion on the website's forums) receives a beta copy of an upcoming computer game, called "Sburb", in the mail. Installing and running the game on his computer triggers a meteor attack on his real-life house, which he survives only by being transported to another planet, thus immersing him completely within the world of Sburb. As John's friends Rose Lalonde, Dave Strider, and Jade Harley join the game with him, they learn that they have unwittingly triggered the end of the world, and that it is their duty to play the game and thereby see the story through to its completion.
There's a number of stories, Homestuck is the current one, and most epic. He's at over 6,000 pages combined in all the stories, around 4,700 alone in Homestuck, and the shit is so convoluted and intricate that I have trouble following it. He does amazing flash interspersed throughout the story, and has great music to go along with it. If you haven't read through it all, and you love awesome stories, check it out. Seriously my favorite webcomic.
I was debating if I should make this thread or not but decided against it. In case you couldn't tell by my avatar I am a fan. Also the fact that a webcomic has 19 CDs out you know it is a serious wtf. I generally don't like anything, but this is better than most shit I watch these days. The beginning was kind of rough to read through, though.
lol, caught me off guard as well. Every time there's a big reveal it's always amazing to me how far back he's been hinting and planning it. Finding out where Jack bloodied his hand was a big surprise as well for me
Jade is obviously my favorite, has been for a long time.
It took me a while to like Jade. I.. didn't like her at all at first. It wasn't until [S] Descend that I realized I may have felt this human emotion called "sadness" when her dreamself died (because I thought she had actually died). But I started to like her more when it was (subtly) explained that Vriska was behind her sleep problems. She's just got her irons in all the fires. All of them.
The bloody hand thing was completely out of fucking left field. Nobody saw it coming, yet it made complete sense. Also having Jacks complete rampage in the troll session explained made a lot more sense.
Oh yeah, speaking of [s] descend and [s] cascade, did you see [s] descend with the cascade music playing? Holy shit it fits so well (since it was originally made for [s] descend).
Except for the Prospit/Jade part, it is fucking baller.
And in case you couldn't tell, Vriska is by far my favorite.
Started reading this a few months ago, read the whole thing(at the time) in one week. Its really fucking long, but well worth the read.
Also <3 Vriska... actually, <3 everybody. Pretty much anyone I didn't like at some point became awesome later(I pretty much hated all the trolls when their whole story arc started).
Went back to one of my favorite pages and found the music went from crazy awesome to random dumb shit, I guess some shitty stuff went down with their music awhile ago. Their bandcamp is here: http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/

I don't think a lot of people liked the trolls at first. But now I like all of them to some degree (Even Eridan and Equius).

Like what? I generally like most of the music. I'm not a big fan of like... Doctor. That's probably the only song I don't really like. But I can easily name like 10 songs from vids that are fucking awesome, not even counting secret music like Spider's Claw (Black, Umbral Ultimatum, Atomic Ebonpyre, Descend, Sburban Countdown, Upward Movement, BL1ND JUST1C3: 1NV3ST1G4T1ON !!, Sunslammer, MeGaLoVania, Dead Shuffle). Too bad I only said 10. There's a shit ton more I like from flashes, and a bajillion more secret and not used music.
Oh never heard Mutiny. Unbreakable union is ok. Mutiny is a bit better. I heard about some of the music shenanigans. I'm glad I got most of the removed songs since I got the music fast. Interesting page since I always wondering wtf null was supposed to be. And I heard of some of the music related drama. It's all kind of gay.
I watched all the music changed flashes and listened to the songs. Notable mentions:
Dave: Strife - The original song is good, but they're both pretty good here. I'm more biased towards the newer one, though.
Jade: Dream up extra arms and play advanced guitar solo - I think the new version is much much better. Like, no contest better.
Jade: Retrieve Package - Mutiny (the original) is a lot better by far.
Midnight Crew: Act 1031 - The original.. is kind of ass. Dead Shuffle is fucking awesome and fits that scene way way way better.
After listening to his music, I'm not all too impressed actually. He's no Toby Fox.
Jane is pretty cool. Kid-mom is.. weird. People seem to really like her but I'm not a big fan yet. Jake is awesome, but everyone really expected him to be anyway. I hope it doesn't take forever for everyone to enter the Medium like it did the kids the first time around. It also keeps getting hinted that Bro is a Bronie or weeabo. I hope not. Ung.
