The fourth and best-known of Hussie's four MS Paint Adventures, it originally ran from April 13, 2009, to April 13, 2016. Though normally described as a webcomic, and partly constituted by a series of single panel pages, Homestuck also relies heavily on Flash animations and instant message logs to convey its story, along with the occasional use of browser games.
