[edit] Dumbstruck
Appearing in your campus newspaper doesn't make your webcomic notable, I write for my college newspaper, and hell, I'm not notable and nor are the 2 comics that appear on it. You can see the webcomic in question here. This webcomic has an Alexa rank of 1 million and a Google search for "Grab bag comics", the site on which it's hosted gives back around 40 links. - Hahnchen 00:28, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

- Comment - By the way, if you take a look at the website, you'll see that the article was written by the Webcomic author. Appearing on Wikipedia's List of webcomics seems to be a must these days. More hits you see. - Hahnchen 14:58, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

- Dumbstruck is one of the most consistently well-written and well-drawn journal webcomics around It should stay
- Delete Two relevant results for 'Dumbstruck comic'. Not notable. Jude (talk,contribs,email) 08:53, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per Nom well-written and well-drawn does not mean it is a notable web-comic with a significant following, although it's possible to gain such a following. Possible re-write if it gains a following.--Tollwutig 16:59, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Comment For notability, it is the only comic featured in the newspaper put out by the largest art college in the United States, with a print readership of over 17,000.
- Delete, neither having a website nor being published in a college newspaper make a comic notable. -- Dragonfiend 17:43, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Keep it, Dumbstruck plays a significant role within the journal comic scene. It is one of the most consistently updated JCs. Whoever votes for deletion has no idea of JCs. --Eric.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.47.148.180 (talk • contribs)

- Delete as non-notable, unless there's an article for this newspaper it appears in, in which case merge it into there. Fagstein 04:19, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
