What drew you to 8-Bit Theatre?

I was going to ask, "does anyone actually read these things?" and then I found this post:

Now I read the site in the hopes that one day I, too, will laugh until my head pops and I can join my husband in the great RPG in the sky.

Which got 0 reactions, so I guess that answers it. >_>

Me, I followed up a rumor I heard about a sect where the members sacrificed their lives to some kind of humor god. They all died laughing, like the victims of the Joker's nerve gas. There was some violent interrogations - some might call it torture - and gunfights with four-armed gremlins. My lover took a bullet for me, and I swore on his grave that I'd get to the bottom of this matter or die trying. The scum of the city had never seen anyone quite like me, as I tore through the underworld in my frienzied search, and eventually they realized they couldn't run or hide or fight me off, and they gave the the URL.

Alright, it was just a friend who told me and I entered the race at strip 220 or so.

So I was searching some flashes at NG and I found LegendaryFrogs Chocobo mix. I went through the preloader and read it was based on 8-bit theater. I searched 8-bit theater at newgrounds and found the flash movies. There was a link to the comic and I clicked on it. I started reading, thought it was pretty damn funny and I told some friends too (none of them post here). That was back in 2003. Then after reading the comic for a while I joined the forums.

I found this comic when i was reading a comic called Links Excursions and looked in the links and there it was.

I have a friend who is into all these comics as well and she introduced me to this one. I've actually read several, but this one is SOOO funny, I laugh my @$$ off every episode!! Nice Job!

My brother and I originally just read the comics. We found it on a link of Gamefaqs.com. I then joined the forum.

I was watching a flash film created by Joeseph Blanchette (Legendary Frog) and there was a link to 8bit theater in the pre loader. Thats how I got here

I was watching 8-Bit Theater 3 by TLF when the url came up. I clicked on it and was on here every day a comic showed up since then.

I found out about 8-Bit Theatre from a link off of another webcomic back around episode 350 and decided to check it out. 'Twas fun being able to read through 50 or so episodes from the archive in one sitting.

I was writing some fanfiction on my computer when one of my friends from Fanfiction.net emailed me the link after I asked where a quote that they used came from. I went to the website, read all of the comic up to about episode 379 in a few days. A few months later I noticed that there was a forum so I joined it.
