Webcomics

Well, that's it, I'm hooked. After spending the last two days reading Girl Genius thanks to Bruce I was thinking that the cellar has given me links to a few neat webcomics thus far (also thanks to Zip, Beest, and I blame Flint for the robot one, since he's clearly one of them) and I wondered if you guys know of any other good ones. I come across mine using stumbleupon mostly, so it's totally random if I find a new one.

I'll link you to the ones that I currently read, feel free to post the ones you read here too. (I'm linking to the first of each of them, so you can start from the beginning and work your way up.)

Girl Genius
Crtl+Alt+Del
Sinfest
We The Robots
Multiplex
The Whiteboard
Banished!
Cyanide and Happiness
xkcd
Schlock Mercenary
sequentialart
Questionable Content

Seconding XKCD and Cyanide and Happiness, although the latter is so deeply wretched that some won't be able to take it.

Achewood remains my favorite although it takes some time to get into.

Back in the day I used to read several of the ones already listed, plus Sluggy Freelance, Goats, Megatokyo, PvPonline, PartiallyClips, diesel sweeties, Overcompensating, and Penny Arcade. I've fallen almost a year behind on all of them, sadly.

I used to read Sluggy and Userfriendly, but they kind of dropped out of my reading habits, and in revisiting them I didn't feel compelled to go back.

Yeah, I don't know what the deal is with Sluggy. I still read it, but meh.

BOB THE ANGRY FLOWER!

Doctor Fun is over, but the decade's worth archive remains.

I only read web comics that will let me download the comic with an RSS reader. I don't understand why so many sites don't use that.

QC!

I haven't checked it in way, way too long, but... i should, and used to for a long time, read Something Positive.

cyanide and happiness is great too.

I make the circuit of Penny-Arcade, PVP, Ctrl-Alt-Del, 8-Bit Theater, VG Cats, Three Panel Soul (By the creators of MacHall), Least I Could Do, and Looking For Group (last two by the same guys).

Along the same lines.... it turns out that random Nietzsche quotes improve Family Circus a great deal.

Hey -- maybe you guys could help me out. I was reading a webcomic a couple of months ago, reading through months of it. My robo-boss came by and I had to close the link. I meant to get back to it, but with one thing and another, I lost the url.

It was about hell, or the afterlife. The main characters were kids, in the form of skeletons, ghosts, succubi, zombies, etc. The plotline I was reading involved them volunteering as candystripers at the local hospital (where the newly dead are "born", dontchaknow).

Does this ring a bell to anyone?

PS: It's really cold in Minneapolis.

I know the artist. I can neither confirm, nor deny, which, if any characters are based in any way on me.
SteveDallas • Mar 21, 2008 7:34 pm
It's hard for me to gain traction on a webcomic where the banners are so big you can't see even a tiny part of the comic without scrolling. (Yeah, I'm lazy. Sue Me.)

http://www.zapinspace.com/ -- Space opera, scruffy rebels vs. evil galactic empire

http://ansuz.sooke.bc.ca/bonobo-conspiracy/ -- probably will be enjoyed only by math/physics nerd and/or current or former graduate teaching assistants; but what do I know?

Heh.


While I'm in here, I might as well mention this site, that lets you keep track of when webcomics are updated: piperka.net


Unfortunately, I don't think it can handle Strange Planet, as that's just an instagram thing.
Clodfobble • Aug 17, 2019 12:04 pm
For what it's worth they're on Twitter, too. Strange Planet isn't really a traditional web comic--it only came into existence and skyrocketed to popularity a couple months ago. They're not online in a dedicated website format because he's trying to sell a book...
