- What the F***?
The Website -
515comics.com is a home to a
variety of different useless things, but it's mostly a house for comics. Because
515comics is on the World Wide Web, and has comics, you could go ahead and call
it a WebComic site. We're not saying you have to, but you totally could. The
domain and web space was purchased through Brinkster.net,
which, upon further inspection, was discovered to be owned by Microsoft. Aside
from this, 515comics has no affiliation with Microsoft Corp. (that we're aware
of). Heck, we don't even like the guys.
The Comics -
The comics thus far consist
mostly of scanned pen & pencil page or panel comics. None of the comics
really have anything to do with each other, this is just a place to put them
all. Please realize, none of these cartoonists will take
responsibility for teaching your 3 year-old a curse word. Don't let him on the
goddamned internet. Most of the comics are humorous in one way or another. Some
are random humor, others have storylines. Go and look.
Recently, we have adopted the great Canadian
Television rating system for our comics.

The comic may be unsuitable for younger
children, but parents may want to read it with them. Minimal course
language and violence. (e.g.- NQD) |
|
|
Parents are strongly urged to exercise
greater care in monitoring this comic and are cautioned against letting
children under the age of 14 read it unattended. May include depictions
of graphic violence as well as course language. (e.g.- el Roy) |
|
|
This comic is not intended and should
not be read by audiences under the age of 17. The comic may contain
extreme graphic violence, strong profanity, overt sexual dialog and/or
explicit sexual acts. (e.g.- Bad Frank) |
Please do not assume to find these easily marked on the
site just yet. We're pretty lazy.

However, this does not have to be the case. If you are in Iowa, or most
anywhere, really, and you would like to contribute to our site in any way (we're
not JUST comics, ya know), please email the madness:
Some FAQs -
Q~ So... Do you
have, like, five-hundred fifteen comics on here or something?
A~ No. You are stupid.
Actually, the name comes from the Central Iowa telephone area code, which is
(515). This idea has been used before by the local underground music scene, and
they go by the 515 Crew.
Q~ So you stole the
name from some other people who already used it?
A~ No! We're using it
in a completely different manner!
Q~ Sure. Hey, didn't
some of these comics used to be on NyQuilDreams.com?
A~ Yes, you've done your
homework. NyQuilDreams.com is the predecessor to 515comics.com, but the staff of
that site found out the it was basically illegal for them to use NyQuil in their
site title.
Q~ I think a particular
comic is funny. How can I tell you my opinions?
A~ Well, you can join our Forum,
or you can e-mail the cartoonist. They really like getting e-mails.
Q~ Is that good enough?
Can I get my five bucks now?
A~ Yes, but I'm really getting
tired of your sass, mister.
Some other crap -
- The cartoonists here have an affinity for zombies. Not
so much Matt M. though... when he sees zombies, he just gets flashbacks to
his days of zombie fighting yore.
- We really hate Ashlee Simpson. And Jessica Simpson for
that matter. The Simpsons are pretty cool though.
- We may not be vegans, but we sure as rain don't like
animal abuse.
- We f--king love ska.
- We don't like Pupkin.
- If you want to support the site and pass out fliers,
contact us and we can hook you up with some pretty tight flier sheets to
make copies of.
- Tupac is dead. Get over it.
LEGAL DISCLAIMER OF SORTS!
Who cares? It's the freakin' About page.
Oh yeah. The images used for our rating system
really ARE grifted- I mean borrowed- from the Canadian TV Classification System
of Canada. We use them because we love Canada.
