MacHall Volume 1 by Matt Boyd

by Matt Boyd

Six young men live in Mac Hall, a high-occupancy dormitory on an unnamed college campus. Packed like sardines in a can, they have little comfort or privacy, let alone dignity. Still, they deal as best they can with class, life, and the occasional reality warp... when they manage to get off the couch.

About the author

Matt is an aspiring journalist. Slender of build, with medium-length black hair and a goatee, he often wears a shirt with the Bungie Studios logo on it. He seems sometimes more easily perturbed than the other characters, and occasionally less confident, but has a high regard for education, current events, and journalistic integrity. He seems frustrated fairly often by what he perceives as scientific illiteracy among the general populace. He was known to be taking, and may still be taking, some sort of medication, possibly psychiatric in nature.

Reviews

[Francine · Rating 2 out of 5]

Didn't really bring anything new to the table for me, when it comes to webcomics as well as comics about college in general. I enjoyed the "making of"-style commentary in the sidelines, though. Made me nostalgic for the early 2000s when I used to read a lot of webcomics (but not this one).

The topical references are out of date, but the college life and roommate situations are universal!
