Not sure if there is already a thread like this- (most likely ), but what are your favorite web comics?

Mine= Something Positive, The Order of the Stick, Bad Machinery, and The Guilded Age.

[Aptorian]

Every month or so I catch up on the latest XKCD and Penny Arcade comics, but otherwise I'm not really in to that stuff.

[Illuyankas]

If you read:

Control Alt Delete
Megatokyo
Least I Could Do
Dominic Deegan

You have objectively shit taste and need to die.

If you don't read:

The Adventures of Dr McNinja

The same applies.

[McLovin]

So many good ones it's hard to keep up...

Moon Town
Anthronauts (not great but mildly amusing)
X-Wing Alliance (cheesy but it's SW damn it, I can't say no)
Alien Loves Predator
Oglaf (sooooooooo NSFW and not for kids but absolutely hilarious)
Gunnerkrigg Court
The Wandering Ones

There's one about elves too whose name escapes me.

And there was another which took shots from the LOTR movies and inserted dialogue as if it were a D&D campaign. Genius if you've ever played D&D, otherwise you probably won't get the jokes.

[Illuyankas]

I will also second Oglaf, DM of the Rings (hornlong's mention, now finished) and Darths and Droids (the same as DMOTR except for all six Star Wars movies, includes the line "Jar-Jar, you're a genius!" and means it, at the end of Revenge at the moment) too.

[Macros]

cyanide and happiness

[majomull]

I had forgotten about DMOTR, and never knew about Darths and Droids. I think my work productivity just took a hit.....

[Abyss]

Sluggy Freelance you phillistines.

Also, Sinfest.

[weaverbird05]

I really like ones that alter older comics that I am already fond of and put them in a different light - such as 3eanuts (which becomes super depressing) or Garfield Minus Garfield (focusing on the mental instability of Jon Arbuckle).

[polishgenius]

Gunnerkrigg Court, Goblins, Order of the Stick, Questionable Content and XKCD.

I could do with another slice-of-life/joke of the day one. Daisy Owl is dead, I don't like Diesel Sweeties anymore (despite it being the one that got me into webcomics in the first place, on the recommendation of Warren Ellis no less), and for some reason I've never got into Penny Arcade.

[amphibian]

XKCD, Oglaf, Erfworld and I wish, wish, wish that Truck Bearing Kibble would come back. XKCD and Oglaf are just below Calvin & Hobbes, The Boondocks and Lio in my personal list of greatest comics ever.

I really try to stay away from the comics that just hate on stuff, which is what I view Penny Arcade to be. Someday I'll work my way through Achewood and see what's up with the love for that comic.

[Use Of Weapons]

First thing every morning, I read these comics in this order:

Dilbert: www.dilbert.com
Calvin and Hobbes: www.calvinandhobbes.com
Sinfest: www.sinfest.net
Cyanide and Happiness: www.explosm.net/comics
XKCD: www.xkcd.net
Least I Could Do: www.leasticoulddo.com
Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal: www.smbc-comics.com

I occasionally look at Penny Arcade, read Megatokyo until I realised it wasn't funny any more.

So, how do you look at this deeply unpleasant misogynistic narcissistic hypocritical unfunny wankstain of a man who does horrible things to all his friends on a routine basis and treats women in the shittiest manner possible who writes a comic featuring himself as his self insert except he doesn't drive away all his friends, runs a company despite doing nothing, actually sleeps with women instead of getting maced and insults other webcomics for missing occasional days when they have easily twice his workload since he only writes shit jokes and doesn't draw his own comic, and enjoy it? Cause I tried to do so myself and as a result of reading it I would not be terribly upset if he died in a fire.

More upset then if Dilbert's Scott Adams burnt up in some similar kind of conflagration, of course, but Adams is a lot more upfront about what a fucking douchebag he is. He has greater gargantuan-quivering-vaginaoscity, as it were.

[Salt-Man Z]

Stop beating around the bush, Illy.

[Illuyankas]

I HAVE OPINIONS AND I'M NOT AFRAID TO USE THEM

[polishgenius]

You should write a webcomic.

[Sir Thursday]

There are four I read religiously:

SMBC
xkcd
Cyanide and Happiness
Wondermark


As you can tell from the list, I'm not really into Webcomics with ongoing storylines - I prefer each comic to stand alone (occasionally Wondermark does multi-strip arcs, but it's usually made up for by having one per day instead of two per week). SMBC is by far my favourite, especially some of the back-catalogue (nowadays the style is slightly different and results in a slightly higher dud to awesome ratio). It might fill your need for another Joke of the Day comic, PG.

I don't know a damn thing about Ryan Sohmer's actual life, but I didn't like Least I Could Do because it came off as a shittier, wish-fulfillment version of Tucker Max. The writing of the comic turned me off it.

Max is actually funny and insightful about his friends' motivations and actions, furthermore he gets his ass kicked verbally or physically once in a while. LICD has every single character in it be a pushover for the main guy and it doesn't really get anything inventive or deeply amusing out of the whimsical stuff it does.

[worry]

achewood
cat and girl
boy on a stick and slither (returned after a long hiatus!)
penny arcade
diesel sweeties
ornery boy
three word phrase (which gave us this excellent strip):



I used to read a lot more but lost touch with some, the best of which were:
jerk city
wigu
exploding dog
the creatures in my head
and of course PERRY BIBLE FELLOWSHIP

What is least i could do? Tucker Max the comic?


edit: I see that question has already been answered.
