Web Comics, also known as Online Comics and Webcomics are a form of comics that are started on the Internet. Many online comics are published exclusively online, while some are both in print and archived online.

Medium
With web comics, the restrictions of the traditional newspaper or magazine format can be lifted, which allows the artists to take advantage of the internet's unique capabilities, such as being able to draw and say anything they want without repercussion. Webcomic artists also aren't confined size limitations. Some webcomics, such as those published by Scott McCloud[1], have experimented with interactivity and animation in their comics.
