Career
[edit | edit source]Buckley launched his webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del in 2002, which mixes video game humor with dramatic storylines. He has mentioned using current video game trends and his personal experiences as inspiration.[1][2]
Buckley often listens to reader feedback and has used it to guide story changes in the comic, and even allowed readers to vote on how the story should proceed.[3]
A 2008 Ctrl+Alt+Del strip titled "Loss", about the protagonist suffering a miscarriage, led to much discussion and derision online over the jarring shift in tone and has become a popular and enduring internet meme.[4]
In January 2003, Buckley introduced a gaming holiday called Winter-een-mas in his comic.[5] Ubisoft celebrated it in 2011 by offering discounts on purchases of digital download games from their web store.[6]
