[http://webcomicssobad.blogspot.com/2008/03/dinosaur-comics.html ''These Web Comics Are So Bad''] is the [[Review Blog|review blog]], created by the persona "Sonty Mick". Ostensibly, Sonty Mick does what the title says, dishing out criticisms of purportedly bad webcomics (albeit [[Cloudcuckoolander|bizarre]] [[Insane Troll Logic|criticisms]] which have little to do with the comics themselves). In reality though, the blog and persona serve as a carefully crafted parody of self-important internet critics (In particular, ''Your Webcomic is Bad and You Should Feel Bad'', the now-defunct review site run by John Solomon), with Sonty Mick spending most of the time praising himself, organising art competitions with himself as the subject, or just finding ways to be personally involved with the comics he "reviews".
{{tropelist}}
* [[Caustic Critic]]: Parodied, with Sonty Mick hating every comic he reads for utterly arbitrary and insane reasons.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Reviews often turn into strange diatribes with absurd criticisms, such as accusing the writer of ''[[Dinosaur Comics]]'' of "being too tall" and for being "unable to draw a sad face".
Line 13 ⟶ 9:
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: Comics have a habit of reminding Sonty Mick of distressing moments in his childhood, or bad songs he once listened to.
* [[Insane Troll Logic]]: Prolific.
{{quote|
* [[Poe's Law]]: comment sections are filled with complaints that take Sonty Mick's views on face value.
* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: Sonty Mick, who likes to organise art competitions solely devoted to drawing him. Takes personal offense over comics, and even draws himself into them.
