Mac Hall (Webcomic) | comment |
Mac Hall was created through a bet between the creator, Ian McConville, and a friend who claimed he "couldn't make a comic like Penny Arcade". After the 15th comic, McConville was joined by Matt Boyd who began to write the comic. It follows the exploits of a group of college students, Ian, Matt, JM, Micah, Helen, Drew, and to a lesser extent, Jon and Jason, who are typical slackers. The series primarily focused on the events that occurred between classes and after hours, and only rarely references actual class work. The comic takes its name from MacDonald Hall, a dormitory at Bowling Green (OH) State University. Later in the series, the cast moves into a house, where they reside until graduation, and the comic's conclusion.Mac Hall concluded on September 22, 2006, with Ian explaining that creating the comic was no longer fun. He also mentioned that the comic would continue in a new phase in October 2006, and after some delay a new project began. Thus, Three Panel Soul was born. | |

Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_12040009 | comment |
No Accounting for Taste: Helen's boyfriend in the early strips, Jason, who is a total nerd, and not the cool kind of geek, either. Helen and Jason stop dating because Jason wanted to see other people; Ian, who was both impressed and resentful when he first encountered the couple, nearly went prompt critical because Jason was so stupid. | |

Men Can't Keep House: Prior to moving to off-campus housing, the guys dorm room was an affront to Man and God One of the reasons JM talked Ian and Matt to move out with him was because he was sick of pretty much the entire dorm being like this. | |

Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: JM is by far the most well-adjusted member of the cast; he's the only person in the comic who's had normal romantic relationships while at college (aside from Helen and Micah), he works to help Matt overcome his various social problems and phobias, he's the one to encourage everyone to move out of the dorms to get away from the squalor, he's the one who does the house-hunting, and he's the one who enforces the chores at their new place. | |

Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_39eba631 | comment |
The Slacker: Everyone in the strip has this by degrees, with Micah and Ian by far being the worst offenders. Micah succumbs to malnutrition at one point due to being too lazy to leave his computer for food, and Ian once forgot Thanksgiving, and attempted to subsist on Tic-Tacs so he wouldn't have to get up and eat. | |

Sunglasses at Night: Ian wears them. Justified; they're prescription sunglasses and Ian has to wear them everywhere. Yes, even in real life. Joked about in one strip when he accidentally walks into the girls' bathroom because his sunglasses makes it hard for him to read the signs in the dim dorm hallways. | |

It has to do with the way search engines work. Early in the strip, several top search hits for "Mac Hall" resulted in websites of that nature. It kinda spiraled outta control from there. | |

Digital Piracy Is Evil | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_a0cf200f | comment |
Digital Piracy Is Evil: Arguably justified. A three strip arc, which points out that while anti-piracy measures may be inconvenient, all the blather pirates throw around doesn't change the fact that they'll pirate from anyone, bad DRM or not. The strip was done in 2002, and still remains relevant. | |

Too Dumb to Live: A brief series had Ian trying to subsist on nothing but Tic-Tacs. The doctors say he has every single nutritional defect, including a few which hadn't been discovered yet, which they end up classifying as a new medical condition called DOGEnote Deficiency of Goddamn Everything. Micah at one point jumps off a three-story balcony because he's in the middle of dancing to "Weapon Of Choice" by Fatboy Slim and forgets that he can't fly. | |

Art Evolution: The strip started out with thick outlines and went through many different styles (often for only a few comics) before gradually moving to its final style, which is reminiscent of Samurai Jack. Drew was an especially notable case; late into the strips run, he suddenly stopped wearing glasses, his face got thinner, and he grew his hair out long. He essentially looks like a different person by this point. | |

Faux Symbolism | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_e63f5f28 | comment |
Faux Symbolism: In-Universe: At one point, Ian's art teacher asks him what the significance is of the runes he's added to one of his drawings. Ian tells her that the significance is that he thought it'd look cool if he added some runes to the drawing, much to the teacher's disgust. | |

Satellite Character | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_e7cb46d3 | comment |
Satellite Character: Alan, first appearing in this strip. Despite frequent appearances early on, he barely gets any dialogue, and disappears entirerly after the main cast move out of the dorms. | |

Evil Twin | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_f2dadf81 | comment |
Evil Twin: When JM briefly shaved off his goatee, Ian assumed JMs evil twin. When JM pointed out this should make him the good twin, Ian then theorized that JM's evil twin had left to conquer the universe. | |

Face Palm: Helen's reaction when her little sister is sent home early because she drew a picture of a duck wearing a bikini, which according to the teacher might give people "bad thoughts." | |

Running Gag | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: People apparently come to the Mac Hall Web site looking for Digimon porn. When the guys mentioned it, the relevant hits went up. Repeat. It has to do with the way search engines work. Early in the strip, several top search hits for "Mac Hall" resulted in websites of that nature. It kinda spiraled outta control from there. | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter | |
Mac Hall (Webcomic) / int_fd1f1a63 | comment |
Ridiculously Cute Critter An unnamed cat appeared on Ian's hat for a while. This was started after one convention, when someone placed a kitty plushie on Ian's head at his booth and Ian forgot it was there for three-and-a-half hours. Chibi Chtulhu who appears in a few strips. | |
