If you’d like an alternative to starting Bardsworth that doesn’t include clicking through the archive, you have two!
1.) You can download (or buy print copies of) the first two Bardsworth collections, in which the earlier strips have been colored and polished up, and include commentaries!
2.) You can download (or buy a print copy of) the first Bardsworth novel. The novel differs slightly from the comic, but provides a little more detail and backstory.
Otherwise, here is the archive for your browsing pleasure.
