It's that time of the year again! You get seven votes to pick your favorite titles for 2016. Comments below, as usual... and thanks!
(Note: Because the two Fantasy World issues were pretty much different stories, we're listing them as different titles here.)

I'm happy to vote for The Hidden Knowledge again. I skipped it last year, since it had meandered a bit, but this year its single issue got things back on track. I'm not such a fan of "nice guy" MC so I like that Daffyd is taking charge again. That kind of reflects through my other choices as well: comics that have strong plots but don't get bogged down, and where the controller lets his id run loose.
Honorable mentions to Drains and Toytime, both of which I'd be happy to see again.

Only as a write-in! It didn't have any issues in 2016.

I would also vote for Chrysalis, and for the Roll Playing extra: Loaded Dice #1 (hopefully there will be a #2, ....)

Hidden Knowledge and the Ring Cycle are my top two.
I put in for The Inheritance, The Persuader, and Free Trade Zone too.
If it counts I'd like to use my last two votes to double up on Hidden Knowledge and Ring Cycle!

Didn't see an entry for Free Cable, but would have made it my 7th vote. It was one of the titles I skipped over originally, but caught up with after the last issue came out. It has a lot of fun with its fairly strict formula.

I'm using my last two for Chrysalis and Roll Playing as well. Fairly cheeky but those were among my favourite titles I read in 2016

Hidden Knowledge and Beyond Rubies were both excellent in their content this year - which I think has stayed pretty consistent for me.
Miss Thursday, tho, was one I read again just recently. That was a damn good single issue. HMB on that art certainly never hurts.
Regardless of how the vote shakes out, though, one thing that I just have to throw my hat in the ring for is running less titles simultaneously but updating them more frequently. I know that not everybody likes the same stuff, but storylines and plots that resolve in a decent amount of irl time would be good. Perhaps try to break comics into major groupings/subgenres and maintain one of each at a certain time? If you had 8 comics going at any given time, they'd each get updated every other month - that would probably be fairly ideal. Dunno how that would work with art schedules/payment though.

Well, I'm glad so see CONFUSED was so popular but I'm puzzled to see it doing better than THE HIDDEN KNOWLEDGE...
It would be wrong of me to use this occasion to say about some of your series "Please don't bother ever doing any of these ever again" wouldn't it?
