  • Planet Karen is an autobiographical slice-of-life webcomic written and drawn by Karen Ellis. It centers on Karen, the author, who is a goth woman of unspecified age (probably somewhere in her early or mid-twenties) and resident of Bristol, England and her daily life. It is written in a diary style with one strip for every day uploaded approximately two weeks after the day. The comic began its run on March 1, 2006, updating almost daily; a year later (strip #314) it had an average of 11 to 12,000 hits a day. Several strips have been used as teaching aids in Cingular Wireless's Do I.T. Right magazine. Planet Karen has been praised by renowned DC Comics writer Gail Simone as one of the most delightful things on the Web. In an interview with Newsarama, Simone listed Planet Karen on her list of Ten Things She's Diggin': PLANET KAREN: A webcomic with everything; heart, brains, humor, drama, and more, created by gifted fangirl Karen Ellis. It’s worth starting at the beginning, but the strip has been even more compelling lately as Karen struggles with a serious health problem. Go read it, you’ll thank me. — Gail Simone It was also featured in Comics International's Top Ten Comics of 2006 ranked at #1. In October 2009 a book was published by Soaring Penguin collecting the first 200 strips, entitled Planet Karen: First Contact, which included an introduction by Simone. A second collection, Planet Karen: Second Thoughts, was published in the fall of 2011. (en)
