iTems in all terms, can be considered an amateur webcomic. Then again, they all are. But this comes off as a rather cheap attempt to dissect comedy. It has no true genre, and continually tries to be funny by smashing the forth wall. (Which is an amateur webcomic technique). Art is a bit rough, and varies from total shit to not-so-bad shit.
That’s not to say iTems doesn’t have its moments. The ending of comic 5 had me chuckling, and the first interview page with God was pretty damn funny. But then it immediately takes a philosophical path that just didn’t work.
I think if the artist, Idun, just relaxed a bit and didn’t try to live up to an expectation of randomness and “furry” then this comic will work out. Yes, random is nice. It can be funny. But don’t… dissect it and force it. Furry humor and references can be a little funny, but don’t focus on it.
Then again, the artist is just having fun with it. This is him relaxing and just dicking around with pen and paper. He seems to be enjoying himself and I give him kudos for it, but that doesn’t necessarily make the comic funny for everyone else.
But, with Idun really drawing the comic for his own personal amusement, and just posting them on the net for the hell of it, and he probably don’t give two hoots about if you think it’s funny or not (… he kind of says so repeatedly). Just look at that self review below. The guy’s got a sense of humor about not giving a flying f$%k.
Does that make it a good webcomic? No. Does that make it a bad webcomic? No. It just makes it a webcomic that’s occasionally funny. That’s all there is to it and that’s all I can really say about iTems.

"This comic is absolutely horrible. An utter waste of time."
