I didn't grow up with the big Goth Comics like.... okay, JTHM, I'm talking about JTHM, but I did grow up with a lot of weird personal and very flawed webcomics similar to this sort of thing. The Miskatonic has the good of those (interesting designs, corny but charming Quirky Darkness, a complicated relationship with British accents) and some of the major flaws (trouble balancing everything, too much ambition, darkness for the sake of darkness). It is saddled further with one of the major flaws of many kickstarter-funded projects: a deeply rushed and slightly lackluster ending. In all, a solid "okay," which is slightly clouded by nostalgia but hey you know what it is what it is.
