A cartoon guide to LARPing

LARP-page11.jpg

I’m a big proponent of most nerdy things, but I have to admit that the idea of LARPing is still just so silly to me. I’ve seen the documentaries, and I can really get behind the community aspect of live action role playing, but it doesn’t stop me from giggling at grown adults running around a park, in costume, hitting each other with foam bats.

That said, I’d like cartoonist Nick Edwards to create a comic describing the ins and outs of just about anything I find objectionable. His cartoon introduction to LARPing brings humour and energy into a subject I have otherwise dismissed outright.

    Hahahahaha… I was once invited to go LARPing. I couldn't bring myself to go. I was afraid I'd laugh.

    So… civil war reenactors are LARPers, too! Heh.

    Fun comic.
