Sacred Pie - Web Comic

Sacred Pie Comic PageI found Sacred Pie about a year ago and kept putting off reading it because i thought the art looked too much like the Beano or the Dandy. I thought this looks like a "fun" story. Boy was i wrong. I was wrong about the art, i was wrong about the story. This is an amazing body of work. The story centres around Sid, Bob and Roonas who are a bunch of typical slackers/wasters who do nothing but play video games etc. The three guys by pure chance (or so it appears) get caught up in an intergalactic Heaven vs Hell epic war. With more than a passing resemblance to various famous and some obscure Sci-Fi and fantasy stories/movies.

Writing
Great! Deep Space Battles, time travelling Medieval adventures, gladiator style alien prison planet epics. This story has it all. Fights, Love, Death, Deep emotion.

Art
This was what originally put me off reading this. but when i started it i soon forgot how bad the art was, only to discover than fairly quickly the art improved and improved and then went full colour then went all flashy too.

Updates
Gets updated about once a week usually on a Sunday.
