Whomp! created by Ronnie Filyaw is a comic series about Ronnie. The comic series is a comedy. Ronnie portrays himself as a rounded (fat), depressed, and awkward character, but enjoys the simple things in life. The simplest things he does either end badly or awkwardly. After reading so many of these I've started to love Ronnie's character, in ways the situations he gets in can be related to everyone, we all have awkward moments and it seems he tries to touch up on every awkward moment imaginable. What draws me to this comic is the art style, it's very rounded, all the character design has a certain style, and it's colorful. The first impression I got was I thought the comic would be more childish (kid friendly) but the text completely changes the how I see the images.
How the comic is laid out is usually six panels, read left to right, horizontally. Sometimes he uses less panels and sometimes he splits up panels. Pretty standard for a webcomic.
This comic is a on going comic and it updates 2 or 3 times a week.
So far this is one of the most amusing comics that I have come across so far and can't wait to see what antics Ronnie will get himself into next.
The character design is interesting. Ronnie's roundness kind of reminds me of some of Chris Ware's comics. You should definitely check out his work.
