Frequently Asked Questions
Not sure how things work around here? You’re not alone. This page covers the basics, like how often the comic updates, how to follow it, and whether Murder Face is legally allowed to vote. (He’s not.) Whether you’re new or just confused, this should clear things up without wasting your time.
Q: How often does Spider Barks update?
A: Once a week-ish. Usually on Sundays. Sometimes on Mondays. Occasionally, on “oops-I-forgot” days. It’s consistent enough—but this isn’t Amazon Prime, and we’re not getting paid enough to pretend it is.
Additionally, please note that new comics will hit social media later in the week, typically on Wednesdays. Want ’em the day they drop? Subscribe to the newsletter. It’s free, fast, and doesn’t sell your data to lizard people. Probably.
Q: Is there an RSS feed, like it was in 2006?
A: You bet. It’s right here. Because some of you still rely on RSS as a life support system. Respect.
Q: I don’t know how RSS works. Help?
A: No problem, time traveler. If you’ve never used an RSS feed (or forgot how), check out this how-to guide. It’ll walk you through setting it up without making you feel like a total digital dinosaur.
Q: Can I share your comics?
A: Please do. But please don’t crop out the credit, repost with AI garbage filters, or slap it on a T-shirt to sell at a gas station. Link back, tag us, and don’t be a douche. You know the drill.
Q: Do you make money off this?
A: Not really. But if you’d like to toss a few bucks into the pity jar, check it out here. Every dollar goes toward keeping Mike in pizza and therapy.
Q: What’s Spider Barks even about?
A: Nothing. And everything. Think cynical skaters, slashers with emotional issues, a cop with too many flags, and the occasional existential crisis in a series of panels. It’s a webcomic. Don’t overthink it.
Q: Who draws this nonsense?
A: One overworked gremlin with a tablet and too many opinions. Check the About page for more information.
Q: Why is the cop so dumb?
A: Because some satire writes itself.
Q: Is Murder Face single?
A: Emotionally? Yes. Legally? We plead the fifth.
Q: Are you okay?
A: Define “okay.”
Got a burning question? Yell into the void, hit up the contact page, or leave an unhinged comment somewhere. We might throw it on here if it’s weird, funny, or just makes us question humanity a little. No guarantees. We’re barely holding it together as it is.
