The World Wide Webcomics Thread

We all know what they are, Comics can sometimes be very funny or so pitiful that we just want to kill the guy who draws Garfield. However, A breed of comics exist that lie beyond the border of the known realm of paper. I'm talking about WebComics. Below you'll find a list of some popular Webcomics to enjoy. So try a few, and don't be afraid to PM me if I missed some or just post it in the thread. Don't forget to tell me if it is NSFW so I can put it on the list.As I said before, PM me if you want to add one to this list or just post it in the forum. Also if you want to give your reviews on the comics, then just post it here.

You're missing some big hitters: Sluggy, PvP, Questionable Content and Least I Could Do being the biggest.

I also tend to check out PandaXpress (mostly for the art and coloring), Malakh (for the storyline), Joe and Monkey, Multiplex, Girl Genius, and Pandect (for some seriously good art).

Gotta say that McNinja takes the coolest random storyline award, while QC has the best romantic and indie banter. And Applegeeks is just the prettiest thing to be posted online.

There's a fairly new one called PsyZoo
I find it mildly entertaining, it's worth a look at least.

Most of the ones I read were checked off (I'm surprised you got Snafu, I only found that set recently). But here's a few more that I adore:

Oh My Gods! - Religious comedy at its best. Simply drawn, just a bunch of gay pagans running around making fun of everything... including themselves. Done in a tasteful way... sometimes.

Machall - Its on hold for now, but reading what is actually there (from 382 strips) is a blast. It follows geek college students in their life... including dealing with what college life is all about.

Chugworth Academy - A site not afraid to give fan service when the artist is having trouble, Chugworth follows a set of almost too-beautiful teens in a crazy world... with ninjas and SPLAM-aid and making fun of emo kids.

Looking For Group - By the same guys who brought you Least I could Do, this comic just got underway, and is showing great promise in the area of World of Warcraft humor (I think it's WoW... pretty sure. Any gamer will get the jokes though.)

I guess an honorable mention should go out to Star Cross'd Destiny. It has good art, a decent storyline, and the artist just wont let up despite an illness. She recently started over again, so there's alot less in the comic now then there was before.

All the others I read were mentioned though.

Star Cross'd is <3. Loved the art and think Juno is a great person who's had to deal with too much crap in her life. She's friends with the author of Malakh, which is fun, since the author of Malakh is autistic and they can swap hospital/doctor stories. :P

I used to read Mac Hall on time, but from what I understand the 'hiatus' is indefinite - they've 'moved on with life' and 'might' come back to pick things up again, but with no promises made.

Megatokyo is awful.

*VG bans Deni from the thread*


And though we are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

I happen to enjoy Alien Loves Predator, updated Tuesdays and Fridays. It follows the life of an Alien and a Predator living in New York, and it's usually pretty damn funny.

Drex-

Is it indefinite? The way I read it they were saying 'well, we're done for now, but don't think we're out of it just yet!'. Granted, Ian ended it with a comic about how he was moving away for his job, so I guess that's a total ending.

As for Star Cross'd Destiny, I really wonder where Juno was going with the original storyline. She's really put up with alot, and I was actually confused to see everything changed when I started reading it again.

No love for white ninja?

Pretty funny at times, but other times it's so random that I just don't get it.

DINOSAUR COMICS! - The animations in the panels are the same for every comic, but the words change every day. And somehow he's been keeping this up for almost four years now.

And I guess I could point out my sprite comic that has been dead for a few years now. It was a Mega Man sprite comic, like every other comic in 2001, and it really only lasted about a year, but I think it had a few good moments.
Waa waa waaaaaaa.

Since there's a discontinued webcomic on the main list, I feel I should mention Concerned.

The comic is based off of a... lesser known character in the Half-Life universe. It isn't entirely necessary that the game is played before Concerned is read, but it certainly helps, especially with comics such as this one.

two glaring omissions.

I Drew This biting political humer that hits home every time.... and i mean EVERY TIME!!!!

and Achewood (highly recomended) Story based black humour, while dabbling in strange out of this world art like concepts. Warning, can be extremley morbid sometimes, but the story is well worth it (i suggest you read them all starting from the beginning.)

I don't keep up with too many webcomics. From those listed, just 8-bit Theatre, Penny Arcade, and VG Cats.

One that's missing though is xkcd. <3
