Imagine this. You're just idly surfing the web. You find a webcomic and read the most recent one. You laugh. You decide to read the previous one. That's funny as well. You read a week's worth and laugh at all of them. You feel the urge well up inside you. It's time to go on... an Archive Binge. The systematic read-through is a common larval stage of more-than-casual fans of a Webcomic. Such comics progress very slowly by most standards but online archives make back issue availability unparalleled. Even if reading a single installment takes seconds, a person coming across a new strip finds dozens, hundreds or even thousands of times as much new content. So he'll sample a few... then a few more... then, if things are really working out, all of them. The depth of the resulting addiction can be estimated from the disruption of daily life caused and from the degree of withdrawal symptoms once the reader finishes and has to follow the update schedule from then on. More sensible people time themselves and read up a little at a time. These are the people who can eat only one potato chip. Mozilla Firefox extensions like Autopager can help by automatically adding the next page as you scroll, so you don't have to click on links. For some of them, you need to be quite technically minded, though. There's a web service called Archive Binge that lets you read a webcomic's archive at a rate you choose via an RSS feed, allowing you to binge at your own pace. Archive Binging is common for first-timers of this wiki (and the other one), as xkcd has pointed out. It is also an increasingly common phenomenon with regard to TV shows, now that it is possible to buy whole seasons of a long-running show on DVD or watch them on streaming video services such as Netflix. It is not unusual for fans who have already been following a series to undertake several more archive binges, often initiated by an Archive Trawl. It's also good practice for Fan Fic writers to undertake this, especially in a new fandom, or one they're going back to. It's often called "Canon Review" in these circumstances. The use of script-controllable downloaders (wget) or web crawlers like HTTrack can simplify both an Archive Trawl and an Archive Binge, due to having the comic permanently available offline usually with a minimum of time and hassle. Contrast with Archive Panic, where the truckload of content in a series turns audiences away. See Webcomics Long-Runners for a list of comics with the most daunting binges. Examples |

Dork Tower has been going since January 1997 as a four-panel comic, a webcomic, a bimonthly comic book, and one-page strips for Dragon, Shadis, Spyre, Comic Buyers Guide, Comic Shop News, and other publications. The incomplete web archive starts from January 1st, 2001, but to really catch everything requires devoting a good chunk of time to the TPBs. | |

Narbonic ran every day for six years. Shaenon Garrity is now re-running the strips daily with commentary as the 'Director's Cut'. But the old strips are still on-line. And now the 'Director's Cut' has wrapped, so you have to read the entire 6+ years of the original, then the 6+ years of the annotated version to find all the jokes and refs you missed the first time. The world's first *completed* double archive trawl. |

Retro Game Master: To be expected of a long-runner. At the time of writing, there's 17+ seasons and 150+ episodes roughly an hour each. Have fun. To be fair, the premise of the show has changed little through the years, but following the Assistant Directors that are in or off the team is rather impossible for a newcomer without the aid of an episode guide. | |

Count Your Sheep has a strip almost every day, starting in early June of 2003 and continuing today. Not only that, Adis, the author, has at least two other strips that he also updates in addition to CYS. What a dynamo... Though recently it hasn't updated that much so you could probably read the last few years in one sitting. | |

While Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics) didn't run as long as some famous DC Comics or Marvel Comics names, it lasted long enough to have 290 main issues at the time of cancellation, a Knuckles spin-off series that lasted into the 30s, the Sonic Universe spin-off to 92, and numerous special graphic novels and miniseries. | |

Pity on the one who decides to just now get into Sluggy Freelance. Usually a comic a day for over ten years. It will be a long time before you see the sun. A "weekly" mode has been (re)added to the archives. If you can hold yourself to an hour a day on weekdays (in other words, one's lunch break) and you're a speedy reader, it'll take you about six weeks. | |

Channel Awesome has over 40 contributors and growing, whose videos often reference those of other contributors, making a binge necessary if a fan wants to understand all of the in-jokes. The Nostalgia Critic himself went on one and watched every episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender so he'd have enough ammo to absolutely slay M. Night Shyamalan's train wreck. |

MS Paint Adventures will take days to read since it is often updated with 10-15 individual pages of actions every day, with only few breaks. Homestuck has over 8,100 (even longer than Kevin & Kell!!) panels, some with long "Pesterchum" chat logs or other paragraphs of text, and some with Flash animations. The whole thing is a tightly-knit ball of timelines, so you can't skip anything either. And then there's the plot, sometimes requiring visits to the series' own wiki to fully understand, and the 16 main characters, commonly abbreviated to only two letters, to keep track of. It's all worth it, though. |

Oh God, don't get us started on Kevin & Kell... It's been going nonstop for nearly 24 years. Weekdays for the first 5 years, every day since July 2000. Over 8,000 strips and counting. If you want to get started, pack a lunch. It proudly, and quite possibly rightfully, claims its place as the longest continuous webcomic in existence. Lampshaded here (when it was only at 6,000 strips). | |

Good luck trying to Archive Binge at mezzacotta. It might take a while, with comics for every day back to 1st January, 9999999999999 BC (according to the proleptic Gregorian calendar). Just for sake of simplicity, the amount of strips that are there is 3650000000732555 strips ((9999999999999+ 2008)* 365) without including leap days, and assuming ideal condition that you can read 1 strip per second, which makes it 31536000 strips per year (no leap days, still). The amount of time to finish the whole archive is 115 million years! Yep, that 10^8 years you need to read to finish it. Granted, it's entirely made up of Dada Comics, so it's not like you'll get anything meaningful from reading them... | |

Freefall has been going regularly since March of 1998, with several long stretches of strips that cover a single day. It's easy to lose track of how long you've been reading when not even 24 hours have passed for Sam and Florence... And good luck understanding the story arc without reading the whole thing, or at least most of it. While there are plenty of one-off jokes and side stories, the archive isn't exactly well labeled or search-friendly... | |

SCP Foundation. And that's not counting all the time you'll spend never sleeping again because you're scared out of your wits. Done in-universe by the poor researcher chronicled in SCP-4010, who was assigned to create a Foundation timeline even if Negative Continuity is the norm and thus trying to conceal everything together is a tall order. It takes her over a year and causes unexpected effects. | |

The Whateley Universe site tends to cause this in some... which can be frustrating, or enlightening, when one reads five variations on the same story from different viewpoints. A hundred or a hundred fifty wouldn't be so bad, but they're all full stories. And some of them are (literally) as long as Harry Potter novels. Good luck with getting through even one of those in a single night. | |

Charby the Vampirate forces you to do this, so cancerously numerous are the characters... and unlike some amateurs, the author will keep track of every single one of them correctly and will give us time to be emotionally attached before she gets around to killing them off so the archive binge is as necessary as it is recommended purely to get full emotional stress when the killing begins! | |

At one point you could get a 20th-anniversary commemorative collection of the Royal Rumble - almost an entire day's worth of nonstop in-ring action (and that doesn't even include all the non-Rumble matches!) featuring dozens of WWE Superstars (perhaps even more if distinct gimmicks and costumes count). One plug for the box set joked that it's all so exciting you won't even want to take pee breaks. | |

Homestuck has over 8,100 (even longer than Kevin & Kell!!) panels, some with long "Pesterchum" chat logs or other paragraphs of text, and some with Flash animations. The whole thing is a tightly-knit ball of timelines, so you can't skip anything either. And then there's the plot, sometimes requiring visits to the series' own wiki to fully understand, and the 16 main characters, commonly abbreviated to only two letters, to keep track of. It's all worth it, though. | |

AntiBunny has been running since 2006, but fortunately isn't too difficult to get through as it started as a twice-weekly, and is currently a weekly since one of the storylines has finished. Deciding whether to read in order of events, or order of publication is an entirely different matter as the story jumps around the timeline, and two side by side stories ran for a while that occurred 2 years apart. | |

Penny Arcade: Though it's entirely episodic, you really can't not read the old strips. And since Tycho and Gabe have been doing the same strip for longer than most webcomic creators have been in the business, you're in for a lot of reading. It doesn't help that they seem to have a comic on just about any topic even vaguely related to video games, which are frequently linked to on this very website. Yes, there's PA in your TV Tropes so you can binge while you binge. | |

The Order of the Stick has 900+ comics in its archive as of this writing — hefty, but not gigantic. But... each strip is the size of a standard comic book page (sometimes two, rarely up to four). So with each strip 3-8 times as long as with most webcomics... Well, you're gonna be in for a while. And then you'll want to read the two prequel books, and then the Dragon strips... | |

Sinfest is another 7 days a week 365 days a year strip, that has been running since 2000 (with some gaps). However, Tatsuya Ishida seems to be fond of occasionally going back to earlier one-shot comics and giving them sequels (the "Politically Incorrect Fringe Rangers" are probably the best example; now up to their sixth iteration, often over a year apart). This inevitably leads to the reader going "wait, what, when was the first one?", and heading backwards a couple of years to refresh whose memory. Then remembering how much who loved the arc after that, and continuing from there. Recursive archive binging. Not pretty. | |

raocow has about 6500+ videos on YouTube (as of 2018), as well as over 1000 on other video sites. He uploads 2-3 new videos every day (depending on how many series he has going on at the moment), only ever taking breaks when there is something physically preventing him from uploading (such as a computer issue or a serious injury). Each video averages about ten minutes long. Good luck with that. | |

Schlock Mercenary ran like clockwork 7 days a week, 365 days a year for just over 20 years.note From June 12, 2000 until July 24, 2020.That comes out to over 9000 strips. The only time updates were halted was when the servers hosting the site were flood-damaged. The comics for those particular days were hosted on an emergency server and were posted only a few hours late. Mr. Tayler has a record to uphold, after all. Schlock Mercenary makes it unnecessarily easy for even experienced Schlockers to do this, as the sidebar contains a "random strip" button that throws you back into the archives. | |

Given Turnabout Storm's episodic format, anyone hooked in with the mystery and/or the unusual crossover might be tempted to watch all of it in one go. If that's the case, you might want to stack up on snacks: Part 1 clocks at 30+ minutes, which is already relatively long, and all following episodes nonchalantly break the 1-hour mark. Case and point: The conclusion had to be split into two episodes to keep it from being too long, yet still the final episode manages to be 2+ hours long. | |

Cat Tales has been updating on a chapter-a-month-or-so schedule for nine years, resulting in 60 separate stories (with almost 350 chapters, combined) and multiple (thankfully much shorter) spin-off series. Although heavily influenced by both the comics and the DCAU, it has its own cast of recurring characters and complicated storylines that require any new reader to start at the beginning before you're able to understand later stories. | |

The Marvel Cinematic Universe consists of twenty-eight films as of July 2022. A back-to-back marathon of the entire canon so far would take about 53 hours. And that doesn't into account all of their short films tying into the movies and every single one of their television shows they have out right now (with the ones from WandaVision onwards being particularly important to the movie continuity!) - and dozens more movies and shows are in development. | |

Bob and George ran for 7 years, and with only a few exceptions updated 365 days per year. The comic is very arc-heavy, with loads of mythology gags and callbacks, and even Time Travel revisits to past comics for filling plot holes. Dave even encourages binging by longtime readers with the addition of writer's commentary on early strips (though it looks like we may never see commentary on the entire run). Binging is made somewhat easier by allowing a reader to go to the beginning of specific story arcs. | |

Farscape and other hyper-linear series are written in such a fashion that each episode builds and relies so much upon the events of previous episodes that missing even one can create a comprehension gap in the current goings-on. Farscape is a perfect example of this as major story arcs in the last seasons come full circle and build upon references and character interactions made in the 1st and second seasons.For example: At the End of The Peacekeeper Wars, Chriton is about to fire the Worm Hole Weapon and makes Scorpius beg him up to, and including making him say "please", before he allows Scorpius to finally see this fruition of all of his plans throughout the series. In an episode from a previous season, it is revealed that Scorpius was conditioned by the Skarrans, to never beg for anything in general and specifically to never, ever say "please". Without watching everything up to that point, the reference is completely lost and the true power and impact of the moment would not be comprehended by the viewer. | |

Girl Genius is a rather interesting example. Initially, the comic was split into two sections: the 101 beginner's section, which started from the beginning, and the "Advanced" class, for those who had been following the comic since it was originally released in print. Both sections were updated three times a week. In July 2007, the 101 section finally caught up to the beginning of the "Advanced" section, which resulted in a mass simultaneous Archive Trawl/Binge by those who had been reading the 101 comics. This both exceeded the site's monthly bandwidth and caused the server to crash. | |

Twisted Kaiju Theater is a serious long runner, being one of the longest-running photo-webcomics of all time and well over 3,000 strips. The problem is only compounded by the fact that TKT has a LOT of continuity throughout the series so you have to read everything in order the first time through to understand who the characters are and what their backstories are. | |

Leeloo in The Fifth Element when she is learning about Earth for the first time on the computer. She's supposedly going in alphabetical order, which is why we get a Break the Cutie moment towards the end when she gets to W (for war). The movie seemed to present her selections as fairly random. A contrived setup for sure, but it makes more sense than if she just skipped some entries. | |

Strategically keying up all seasons of Red vs. Blue so it can be watched in one marathon session takes more than a day! Not mention being a bandwidth-intensive mission (although the 282 episodes that comprise the first 14 seasons are also available on DVD, and 15 to 17 have home releases too). Rooster Teeth might've facilitated this once they started to release the Compilation Movies (used for the home releases, once available on Netflix, and still able for purchase on VOD services) on YouTube. To wit, the first 13 seasons clock in at least 25 hours (and that's not counting in the miniseries, which add an extra hour and a half). Even if this binge ignores the anthology that's Season 14, Season 15 is 3:45 hours. At least the ones afterwards are progressively shorter. | |

Race for the Iron Throne by Steven Attewell is itself an Archive Binge of George RR Martin's massive A Song of Ice and Fire with the aim of doing a Chapter-By-Chapter summary analysis, and inevitably, its detailed mammothly worded essays, research, and thinkpieces becomes a giant archive by itself. | |

The Law & Order franchise has been running for 28 seasons (1990-present), when you count the original and it's various spinoffs. For anyone wanting to watch every episode of the original show and all its spinoffs, you'd have to watch 927 episodes (Law & Order (original) = 456 episodes, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit = 436 eps., Law & Order: Criminal Intent = 195 eps., Trial By Jury = 13 eps., Law & Order: LA = 22 eps.). | |

Suprisingly, Ratchet & Clank can get this, because if you really want to understand all elements of the story and have the overall progression make sense, you need to play over half of its ten-year catalogue containing at least three trilogies. As a bare minimum, you need to play Ratchet & Clank (2002), Going Commando, Up Your Arsenal, Tools of Destruction, A Crack in Time, the six-issue comic, All 4 One and Into the Nexus (and you'd preferably play Quest For Booty and Full Frontal Assault as well). To put that in perspective, that misses out five games in a fourteen-game storyline! | |

Questionable Content has snared a few newcomers into this with the loveable characters and indie references. Provides one of the best examples of Art Evolution on the web. Binging is not needed as much lately, as the comic has developed a tendency to introduce a group of new character and focus on them, either almost ignoring old characters or changing their situation so completely there's a bit of a disconnect with earlier comics. | |

My Immortal. You hear amusing lines from it. You hear about it. You want to know: "Is it really THIS stupid/silly/bad/awesome beyond compare?" So you read up on it, not wanting to receive the brain damage you've heard you'll get from reading it. Then you give up and read it out of curiosity, and bile fascination makes you read the whole thing (or you're generally amused by Enoby's adventures). So is it really as stupid/silly/bad/awesome beyond compare as everyone says? Answer: Yes. Even better, there are numerous dramatic readings of the fanfic on YouTube and other places. Watch/download one of those for some laughs while doing other things! | |

El Goonish Shive has been going since 2002 at 5 comics a week for a good chunk of its run; starting from the beginning would be quite a task. If you follow the comic, you'll know that it started as a 7-a-week comic in 2002, dropped to 5 midway through the first year, became erratic, and returned to more or less consistency at 5 in Spring 2010. As of mid-April 2011, it has started a 6-a-week schedule, and more recently it's been three-a-week on the main comic but an additional three- or two-a-week on the NP strips. There is a huge archive for newbies to trawl through, and it is common even for veterans to engage in Archive Trawls once in a while. Provides one of the best examples of Art Evolution on the web! | |

Drowtales is a severe example of this trope. To even begin to understand what's going on in Chel, not only do you have to go on an archive binge, but you also have to read through Wiki entries, extra story arcs, and if all else fails, contact the forums. But then again, the comic itself is rather enjoyable, so many fans have found themselves on repeated archive binges, just for the hell of it | |

As a long runner, Doctor Who has a lot of Archive Panic, although the shows' fans and the BBC make a distinction between Classic-who and New-who. Though the show has twenty-six years (plus-or-minus Missing Episodes) of Classic stuff, you really don't have to have watched all of the classic-era to understand the new-who-episodes, but there's no harm in doing so. For the curious, 1981 had a "Five Faces of Doctor Who" marathon which, in an era with no reruns, was pivotal in codifying fan stereotypes for each era (a blog post is available here which goes into its effect on the fandom). | |

The Class Menagerie had run for a little while, and the archive binge doesn't take as much as some strips like Newshounds and Funny Farm (Which it has crossed over with). Unfortunately, the strips are listed in the archive out of order so it's rather odd to see the "introductory" strips right after you finished several notable-sized story arcs. To make matters worse, some of the strips are even repeated. (The crossover with Newshounds shows up twice if one reads the archive from the beginning) | |

The M.U.G.E.N fighting game engine has LOADS of content available for it. Not only will picking your favorite characters to fight with be a total binge but setting your stages, motifs and other add-ons is a massive adventure. And all of this considering you don't do any editing or creation yourself. | |

Fred Perry's Gold Digger has run for 30 years (starting in 1991). He has announced that he intends to end the series with issue #300 (bear in mind that the numbering restarted in 1999, so it would effectively be issue #350, not counting assorted annuals and specials). | |

Warrior Cats is a fun binge. Over 30 novels, and that's the bare-bones experience. You also have a bunch of extra-long standalone "super editions", books explaining history and characters, several series of OEL, and at least a dozen novellas. | |

It can take months (that is, if one is willing to sleep and go about their everyday life) to watch everything in the Homestar Runner universe, considering that all the videos, especially the Strong Bad Emails, are thick with in-jokes and references to one another. And even though the Brothers Chaps have now greatly slowed down their output, by the time you've watched everything on the site, it's often necessary to dip back in to refresh yourself since it's nigh-impossible to retain all the gags at once. | |

In "Must See TV" from Sid the Science Kid, Sid decides that once he gets home from school, he wants to take a TV into his room, camp out, and go straight into a marathon all-weekend watch of his favorite television show, Firedog Brigade, about a team of dogs that seem like ordinary dogs until the bell in their fire station goes off and then they go out and do stuff like fighting crimes and saving the day. Being the show that this is, he learns that it's okay to watch television sometimes, but this sort of binge-watching isn't healthy for a growing young boy. | |

Dinosaur Comics, over 2000 (probably more) comics of the same images over and over again, yet completely gripping. In fact Ryan North, the creator, saw this happening and even added the occasional joke in the meta text just to mess with your mind... with words, because that's what it's all about. That and dinosaurs. | |

The Music Video Show had started in 2013 and some episoodes go over 4 minutes. This wouldn't be too bad, had the fifth season hadn't been uploaded in one day. All 30 episodes, most over 3 minutes long. And nearly two months later, all of season six was released in one day, this time with 25 episodes. Then, there's the 25-episode season seven, followed by a 20-episode season eight released the very next month. The ninth and tenth seasons have 50 episodes each, making the show conclude at 300 episodes. | |

The Mad Scientist Wars has been going on for several years, and has managed a huge number of pages with several highly complicated plots, and character backgrounds, and running gags... not even *counting* the Lounge (where the creators talk), The mad sci Tales (short pieces to do with MSW), and... so on. To the point where a summary has been worked on. | |

Certain comic books (such as Action Comics, Detective Comics, and Batman) have been running continuously for over 70 years. Their long history and continuity changes seem to be enough to prevent most people from doing full-on binges... but heaven help you if you, say, read a particularly interesting arc from fifteen or twenty years ago that crosses over into three or four different series. And then, of course, you need the context, and then you want to know what happens next, and before you know it, you've read all 153 issues of Nightwing in two days. And then, after you've read every comic book in existence, you suddenly get a hankering for a favorite arc of yours, and it starts all over again! | |
