Webcomic Spotlight: Sunset Grill
So I’m trying to check out more webcomic series whenever I get the free time (which isn’t very often). As I do, I’ll try to spotlight them here.
First up is a great sci-fi comic called Sunset Grill by Kat Feete, which revolves around the many, MANY characters who are patrons of the Sunset Grill, a “bar on the shady side of town in the run-down and corrupt city of Kieselburg.” In its 200+ pages (so far), the series has explored many different stories and featured a great number of recurring characters, from bar employees to police officers to gang members to aliens.
It’s done in a rendered CG art style, which I know may not be everyone’s cup of tea. But even if it’s not your visual thing, the stories themselves are well worth the read! It’s a great piece of very cool sci-fi world-building, with the author explaining background info in notes below some of the comics.
The comic itself is well written, with a hefty amount of comedic dialog and some vey funny moments throughout the series mixed in with a good amount of drama to boot. So there’s a bit of something for everyone. Plus gangsters, low lifes, and thugs. And given that’s pretty much what RUNNERS is about, how could I not like this series?
Check out Sunset Grill.

Eeee! This is what I miss by taking voluntary weekends-off-the-internet….
Thank you so much for the kind words! I adore Runners, so it means a great deal to me that you’ve actually read my wee comic and care enough to recommend it. (I also want to go back and throw out half my archive knowing you’ve seen it, but that happens fairly frequently….) And I can’t say I mind the slew of hits you’ve sent my way either.
Thanks so much, and please keep up the great work with Runners. It’s one of my favorite comics and I can’t wait to see where it goes.
Hi Kat! No problem with the spotlight on Sunset Grill. It was my pleasure. It’s always nice to discover fun webcomics, especially other sci-fi webcomics, that are out there. And whatever we can do to help each other spread the word would be great. Along those lines, I’d like to thank you for the readers you’ve sent my way!
