Critical Miss, previously known as Out of Tens, is a gaming webcomic by Cory Rydell and Grey Carter, hosted at The Escapist. The winner of a webcomic contest hosted on the site in 2010.The story follows Erin Stout, a game reviewer who writes for the website "Little Miss Critical'', and her co-workers, which include Erin's partner, Elliot Clutch, her boss, Sharon, and a ton of minor characters. Although the comic focuses mainly on video games, a few have to do with movies and various other topics.A spinoff, titled Erin Dies Alone, has launched. It deals with an alternate Erin who spends her life trapped in her own apartment, with only hallucinations of her favorite video game characters for company. Unlike Critical Miss, Erin Dies Alone has a much darker sense of humor and is more character-based.Due to the creators leaving The Escapist, the series entered an indefinite hiatus as the site owned the rights to the comic... Until The Escapist came under new management and hired Grey and Carter back on for a new run of strips. However the series underwent a reboot: now called Critical Mix, the new timeline brings in characters from Erin Dies Alone, revamping the entire premise of the series of a world where game characters are real and looking for work. Unfortunately, Grey and Carter were once again laid off from The Escapist in July 2019, leaving the future of the series in jeopardy once more. | |

Helpful Hallucination | |
| Critical Miss (Webcomic) / int_10072b2 | comment |
Helpful Hallucination: After a car accident in "Stowaways", Erin is talking to hallucinations of videogame characters, with Zelda's Link appearing to be a kind of "spirit guide". Possibly. Though how "helpful" they are is debatable, especially to Erin herself. | |

Heroic Mime | |
| Critical Miss (Webcomic) / int_143e6c8d | comment |
Heroic Mime: Erin's hallucination of Link uses a whiteboard instead of talking. She lampshades this, noting he spoke in the CDI games and the cartoon, to which Link replies that they sucked. At one point, he pretends to be a random bystander worried about the crazy girl at the bar, and she doesn't realize he's a hallucination since he's perfectly willing to talk her ear off. | |

Fanservice: During the series of strips where Mol and Erin are running around in their underwear, it is implied that the strip's creators received feedback complaining that both characters were clad in plain, white and conservative items. A strip towards the end of this mini-arc then had the underpants of both characters change pattern and color for each and every panel. Happy now? | |

Good Angel, Bad Angel: When Erin asks how to make her console-playing friends see the error of their ways, Sora from Kingdom Hearts suggests friendship and that you can't force them to change their opinions. Erin takes that as Plan A and asks Kratos from God of War for a Plan B. The next panel is her ripping Elliot's Xbox 360 from the TV. | |

Or Was It a Dream?: It's not clear how real Erin's hallucinations are. Not only can they plan and act independently of her, but at one point she throws one out the window of a moving car, and a truck seems to run over something invisible. It is possible she may have some dissociative disorder contributing to this. | |

Take That! | |
| Critical Miss (Webcomic) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Pretty much the entire point of the comic, as Erin is extremely critical. A few examples: In one strip, Sharon reviewed most of the preview copies of games that were delivered. Only two were left for Erin and Elliot to review: Kane & Lynch 2 and Virtua Shit Eater 5. Both Erin and Elliot ask for Virtua Shit Eater. "Since its release, over one hundred million man-child-hours have been spent on Call of Duty: Black Ops." In a slap-fight between Nintendo and Rovio, Erin says her money's on "the company that's made a fortune shilling casual nonsense to idiots who don't know any better". One more for Mass Effect 3's infamous ending. A big one to Activision, with a side of Interspecies Romance. There have been numerous shots fired at Neon Genesis Evangelion and Shinji in particular. To the extent where they actually lampshade it. More than a few at Nickelback, like here and here. Titanfall is just Call of Duty with giant robots! | |

Magic Skirt | |
| Critical Miss (Webcomic) / int_c978ad0b | comment |
Magic Skirt: Erin's skirt is gravity defying, which is odd considering the creators haven't had a problem showing her underwear in previous strips. this is the strip. Three explanations exist for this: One, the skirt is spandex/similarly stretchy. Two, the artist forgot. Or three: It's another indication that this is all happening inside Erin's head. The skirt is the least implausible of the unlikely physics of pushing someone out of a window and then catching her by the ankle the way it was shown. She also rotated 180 degrees in the air, and is supported by only one ankle for half that scene. | |
