Goblins (webcomic)
''Goblins - Life Through Their Eyes'' is a Dungeons & Dragons webcomic written and illustrated by Tarol "Thunt" Stephens. It is set in a humorously stereotypical fantasy setting, and follows the lives of a party of goblin adventurers who started as monsters and declared themselves player characters. The tagline for the comic - "Life Through Their Eyes" - reflects the predominant theme of the comic: telling a heroic tale of creatures normally viewed only as evil and weak. Tarol Hunt cautions young readers about the comic, as it often contains scenes of strong violence. The comic also describes, references and orientates several key storyline elements around the subject of rape and sexual abuse.
It won the Canadian Prix Aurora Award for "Best Graphic Novel" in 2011, and 2012.
==Background==
The comic debuted on June 26, 2005,〔(The Webcomic List )〕 and updates presently occur at the rate of approximately 1 pages per six months. The strip originally began in black and white, before converting to color in the thirtieth strip. The comic often employs humor related to metagaming in Dungeons & Dragons, such as a cleric praying to the all-powerful but nerdy Dungeon Master or characters arguing about whether or not they were subject to a random encounter. As the strip has progressed, the tone has become bleaker and the humor aspects have become less central than they were in early strips, although still present. In August 2006 Goblins joined Keenspot. In September 2006 it won Dragon Con's "Most Outstanding New Webcartoonist" award. A first bound volume of the webcomic is in print in North America〔http://www.goblinscomic.com/Book1.html〕 and Europe, and contains a foreword by Dungeons and Dragons game designer Monte Cook. A second volume was released in 2009.
In August 2008, Tarol began a webcam channel to broadcast his drawing, first on JustinTV 〔http://www.justin.tv/thunt〕 and currently on UstreamTV. In October 2008, he made Goblins his full-time occupation. On August 10, 2010 Thunt left Keenspot and moved the comic to Blindferret, which also hosts Least I could do, Looking for Group, PvP and Ctrl+Alt+Del.〔http://www.goblinscomic.com〕 In July 2011, Tarol switched from an ink and paper webcam approach to a digital format, using a Wacom Cintiq drawing tablet. He is still broadcasting live his pencilling and inking sessions on Ustream.〔http://www.ustream.tv/channel/drawing-goblins〕 He credits Phil Foglio,〔http://www.snotling.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=11430#forumpost11430〕 Dave Trampier of Wormy, Heavy Metal Magazine〔"Tarol Hunt." HiSciFi. HiSciFi. CJSF, Burnaby. 13 Jan 2009.〕 and Wendy Pini of Elfquest as influences on his artistic style. Tarol currently lives in British Columbia, Canada.
