Twokinds
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

I can find no reliable, third party sources that cover this topic - such third party coverage is the main criterion given in the genernal notability guideline (which also requires such coverage to be "significant"). Additionally the comic does not appear to meet any of the additional criteria set out in the specific guideline for web content. The only claim of importance in the article (which prevents it from being a speedy deleted as it was following the previous AfD - is the number of people who read the comic. Popularity - or readership - is not a criteria mentioned in either the general notability guideline or the specific guideline for web content; many websites, forums, blogs, youtube videos and even Wikipedia articles can garner a large number of page views - that does not make them notable. Having said that, the amount of traffic this comic receives does not even appear to be exceptional, it receives comparable traffic to the webcomic the page for which was deleted following Articles for deletion/Better Days (webcomic) (2nd nomination) and only approximately a tenth of the traffic of the webcomic the page for which was removed following Articles for deletion/Ctrl+Alt+Del. Beyond issues of notability I can find no reliable, third party coverage of this comic whatsoever and per Verifiability "If no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it.".

 * Strong delete Google turns up only things with "two kinds" as two words, or "two kids" "two kicks" "two [word that isn't even close to kinds]." Dang it, Google, quit autocorrecting everything I type in. Seriously, though, no sources found whatsoever to verify even one iota of information here.
