17776
- ... that a story about the state of American football in the year 17776 has been compared to the work of Don DeLillo, Italo Calvino, Thomas Pynchon, and robot trolls on Reddit?

- I wasn't in time to comment this on the talk page, but I'd say Homestuck would also be worth mentioning in this blurb, no? ~Mable (chat) 19:47, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

- Template:Yo, I have adjusted the info about the pace in the article to be more in line with the source. I also concur with Maplestrip that Homestuck should be mentioned - quite a few of the sources mention comparisons to Homestuck, as does the series FAQ. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:24, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
