Homestuck is a webcomic, with select episodes rendered in rich media instead of images and text.

It's about four kids who are friends on the internet. They play a game together, which draws them into a fantastical alternate universe whose fate is intertwined with that of the "real" world.

The story uses as its themes:
* Everyday things with symbolic significance in the bigger picture
* Inescapable destiny and whether it is truly inescapable
* The importance of friendship and family

Heinous, it's incredibly difficult to explain Homestuck while still making any sense. It's extremely non-linear and not even finished yet, and updates often so a description given today may or may not be relevant in a week.

Homestuck is a very long but quite well written webcomic that anyone who has enough patience to read will usually enjoy.

However, Act 1 is to Homestuck as Episodes 1+2 are to MLP:FiM. It tends to deter people from wanting to get any further into it, but if you do it's definitely worth it.

However, although Homestuck is definitely more popular, I'd suggest reading Problem Sleuth first. Made by the same author, that comic is a clusterfuck of weird puzzle shit and total absurdity while still being a great webcomic on its own. If you can read it, understand it (at least a little), and enjoy it, you should have no problem reading through Act 1, let alone the rest of Homestuck.

The recaps help.

Homestuck is really surreal and... not quite convoluted, because Hussey manages to keep everything coherent pretty well, but it's complicated as all hell.

Read Problem Sleuth first if you're curious about Homestuck. It's shorter, starts stronger, and is a bit more straightforward.

Homestuck is like Dr. McNinja in that while looking at a random page will make it seem like a nonsensical flurry of silly things, it actually does all weave together into a more-or-less coherent narrative.
Also, there's a hybrid of sledgehammer and steam iron known as the Wrinklefucker. Come on. Wrinklefucker.
