I just finished it recently, I had read up right towards the end quite awhile back just before the most recent hiatus, and came back to read it all from beginning to end.
You know, say what you want about it's fanbase being horseshit, or being presumptuous or narcissistic, I don't care, art is about expression and this is one of the most revolutionary and original expressions of internet culture based entertainment ever, and because of the strangeness of it's notoriety and it's a unique piece of art that I doubt will become an inherited tradition like so many other great truly original works of the past have been. (Kinda what Hollywood does, the same shit over and over again Ad Nauseum).
I've read many a /tg/ style "interactive" quest in my day because i like the quirkiness of them, they really sort of encompass the joy of shared storytelling and Homestuck has to be one of the most weirdly fulfilling of the genre. I've often heard people talking about watching their favourite movies multiple times and catching things they missed, and coming back to Homestuck after a year or two definitely gave me that experience, fuck will I miss it; Truly my favourite time travel story, and webcomic too while I'm at it.
