No, which is funny considering 'Tubers are thirsty for content to talk about. There are so many long running webcomics. Even their creators alone would make for great Youtube fuel.
I think reading through a whole comic and more importantly analyzing it is a very difficult task, unless all you're doing is summarizing it. Unlike books, there are far more facets to talk about and unlike movies it takes a long time to read all of it. Longform video reviews have been very popular though over the last few years, so maybe comic reviews are gonna find some popularity on youtube as well. Maybe you should try starting the trend! See a need, fill a need. 😉
Additionally, Gunnerkrigg is of course not finished, and due to the way Tom is telling the story, the whole thing will only ever make sense once it's finished (That is, if there even is some kind of overarchig theme or narrative focus. For all we know Tom will end this comic without any resolution to the readers' biggest questions.)
It's kind of impossible to review before it's done, because at this point there's nothing of value that can even be extracted from it. It's all just a bunch of 'this happened and then this happened and then this happened' without any purpose at all, if the comic were to end today.

Oh, this reminds me, though, if you want a gunnerkrigg related video, Tom gave a talk at some college a few days ago, maybe he'll upload it.
So according to this moron, you cant talk about a comic of it isn't finished? Or even Review it?
How about the countless manga reviews and discussion videos? One Piece, Berserk?
Same with cape comics?
...what?
When did I ever say this? I talked about gunnerkrigg SPECIFICALLY >due to the way Tom is telling the story, the whole thing will only ever make sense once it's finished
If I believed that you couldn't review any part of a larger work without the larger work being complete, I wouldn't have specified that it is the case for this comic in particular.
But that makes no sense. Of course you can review a parte long form serialized work even of unfinished. What makes GKC different? You can still discuss, review or measure its quality from the arcs that are completed.
What's unique to this comic that you cant do that?
>the arcs that are completed
Like what? Which arc? Give an example. >What's unique to this comic that you cant do that?
For one, it's not very unique. Most mysteries would have the same issue.
Try reviewing Batman: Hush volume 1 for example, without referring to volume 2 at all. It'd be very difficult to say anything worthwhile. Without any kind of revelations as to the mystery of Hush, you can't really put any of the disconnected pieces together. You can talk about the superficial aspects, like art quality, but visual art is unfortunately a hugely subjective subject to talk about. You could talk about the art of gunnerkrigg for not much longer than a few minutes without repeating yourself.
Secondly, a lot of the things that are left to discuss about gkc have been made irrelevant or false by more recent revelations.
The only things that come to mind that you can really talk about fairly extensively are the character writing and MAYBE the worldbuilding. Though since the worldbuilding is also subject to frequent addendums through more recent revelations in the comic, it would not even be worth it to talk about for long. New information would eventually prove a lot of what you knew wrong.
For the most part, it would simply be pointless to spend a large amount of time writing a review of this story, because we just don't know the full story. Tom has a penchant for subversion and red herrings.
You can talk about Coyote being fun, but you can't actually talk about his character in great detail, because what he has claimed to be the motivation for all of his actions might be absolute baloney by the next page to be released. We still know nothing about anything. It just seems to me like putting a lot of time into a review of this would be pretty pointless.
It would still give you clicks.
Then a week later when your moronic theories get invalidated, you can make another video for more clicks.

Those kinds of reviews don't magically give you clicks.
If you have nothing worthwhile to say, why would anyone want to listen? Unless you are 'reviewing' (more like 'reacting to' at that point) a VERY popular piece of media. You see those kinds of 'reviews' for Disney products, for example.
The compression bit looks a bit like a bismuth crystal! Neat.
It's weird to see annie be actually proactive and not moronic after all this time
It's out of character for her at this point.
Oh boy, another plot point that will be of no importance whatsoever.
>Rey demoted to wacky reaction faces
Press F for my boy
It's weird going back to early pages where Tom hasn't forgotten Reynard is actually really powerful, even sealed in the doll.
>already naked
Seeing the author try to pretend to write like he is smart is sad.
RIGTH?!
No.
With such a great amount of pages, you would think a Youtuber would have made a video on it.
Are there a lot of youtube videos about the other webcomics?

lol
Glad to see one of It Hurt's Five fans is making videos, unironically
Sooo the court used Winzip?
We got a video once when Pazkat happened

tl/dr
If you analyzed the comic at this point, you'd almost definitely be wrong about most of it, which is kinda a worthless analysis.
It would still give you clicks.
Then a week later when your moronic theories get invalidated, you can make another video for more clicks.

Gunnerkrigg Kat Do Everything
Kat is turning herself into a literal plot device.
Funniest shit I've ever seen.
Kat I am in a predicament I have to feed and sneed but also I have to suck and frick
No worries Antimony I've invented the sneeding feeding chucking fricking tool
Oh thanks Kat HEY WAIT WHAT IF YOU'RE EVIL IN THE FUTURE ah well no point in worrying about it now invent me more toys slave- I mean, er, best friend
Sooo the court used WinRAR?
Without a license.
Gunnerkrigg Court is a charming science fiction fantasy comic that drags on at points. - Normal Youtube Video
But how would we make a clickbait youtube video that would incite outrage and thus more views? Tom's too milquetoast to call him a SJW
>Gunnerkrigg Court the new [Insert popular media here]!!!!
Or basically any title that references some random media that automatically gets clicks.
>GKC is the DARK SOULS of WEBCOMICS!!! [BLOOD, GORE and VIOLENCE!!]
Inb4 sphere eversion.
