Well, I know Sharkyland reads Adventurers, and Amiadon reads Dominic-Deegan, so they rock. But what other comics do you people read? Or do you help in the creation process? I am (as many people have noticed) very bored most of the time, so I read far too many webcomics. It's something like twenty at the moment... thankfully I don't check all of them on a daily basis. So what comics do y'all read?

My main list is:

Penny-Arcade (http://www.penny-arcade.com) - Obviously. My team on PSOW is dedicated to PA.
PvPOnline (http://www.pvponline.com/)
8-Bit Theater (http://www.nuklearpower.com/)
RPG World (http://www.rpgworldcomic.com/)
Adventurers! (http://www.adventurers-comic.com/)
Anti-Hero For Hire (http://www.antiheroforhire.com/)
Once Upon A Table (http://onatable.keenspace.com/)
Melonpool (http://www.melonpool.com/)
It's Walky! (http://www.itswalky.com/) - A truly awesome comic.
Fans! (http://www.graphicsmash.com/series.php?name=fans&view=current)
College Roomies from Hell!!! (http://www.crfh.net/)

The comics I don't check as often or so or that are on hiatus:

Commander Kitty (http://www.commanderkitty.com/)
Men in Hats (http://www.meninhats.com) - Really really hilarious. Dark humor.
Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire (http://www.dominic-deegan.com)
Mac Hall (http://www.machall.com/)
VGCats (http://www.vgcats.com/)
Real Life Comics (http://www.reallifecomics.com) - I only started recently, but I've read the archives... and check it about every week or so.
Count Your Sheep (http://sheep123.keenspace.com) - GAH!!! How could I forget Count Your Sheep!? This comic is really well-done. It has an almost Calvin and Hobbes feel to it, but it's more innocent. I really enjoy it.


I, uh... I think that's about it. Can I turn those into links, or would that be a no-no?

Well, unless they've all changed their formats, then it's time to link them!

Yes, a lot of online comics have alot of porn in it, I don't know why Cartoon Breast turn some guy on, it's rather scary. I say bring on the good normal comics like Batman.

I don't read many webcomics. Only really keep up with two, and one of those is long since finished. And rightly so, it had a coherent story and ended precisely when it should have. The other one I can't really get you into because the archives are hosted on a pay site, heh, so you can only actually read the last couple of pages.

If you're bored enough, though:

Eversummer Eve (http://www.eversummereve.com)
- Nice story, great art. This is the one that has it's archives on the pay site.

Unicorn Jelly (http://www.unicornjelly.com)
It's finished, but you can still go read the whole thing. I recommend you do. XP

I've definitely come across Unicorn Jelly before, but I never read it. I'm not sure about the other one, but something about it looks familiar.

Ctrl+Alt+Del (www.ctrlaltdel-online.com): Great webcomic, lots of good PC/Xbox gags. The recent run of Splinter Cell strips have been great.

I don't think I've ever read any web comics... You must really be bored. I usualy play games, read, or train for my showdown with megatron.

Megatokyo (http://www.megatokyo.com) and Bob and George (http://www.bobandgeorge.com) are the two main webcomics I read.

well the only one I have read so far is Arcana.
I think thats the name of it.
It's about vampires and such but there are alot of(for lack of a better word) *gay* things about it like everyone(including guys) are attracted to the main char.

I will link but if a mod feels it is too offensive you can delete it.

Those aren't webcomics. And at the moment, the only print comic I read regularly is DC's Legion, and I can only read them a bunch at a time. No comic book store anywhere near campus.

But that's for another topic.

I hate Penny Arcade. Don't know why, but I just never thought anything on that site was funny. One panel isn't exactly exciting, either.

Just my opinion, I know a lot of you worship pennyarcade in ways.

Zelda Comic (http://zeldacomic.net/archives/zc/?pic=001.gif) kicks ass.

Knights of the Old Coding (http://comics.captainn.net/~kingauthor/index.php?date=2004-03-28) is awesome, too.

My favorites are Sexy Losers and Purple Pussy, but I guess I can't link to either of those, eh? ;x

Hahahaha, purple pussy is a wonderful comic. It has a nice style too it.

My favorites? Humorwise it has to be Achewood (www.achewood.com).

Another good one is pretty out there. Zxipi (www.zxipi.com) has a pretty bizzare story to it. Too bad the author is on hiatus.

I've only heard of Sexy Losers from a friend on my floor... and his descriptions scare me.

Purple Pussy is disturbing, but has the funniest newsboxes on Keenspot. I like the one with the box of spiders.

I think I'm the only person in the known universe who hates MegaTokyo.

But it could just be me.

Well i personally only read Ctrl-Alt-Del which has allready been posted and this www.vanvonhunter.com, it's quite funny and the characters are cool.

I just never got into MegaTokyo. Dunno if I'd really like it or not.

And I've seen Vanvonhunter or whatever it's called, but only through an ad at Mac Hall, I think.

No one read Sinfest??

Sinfest (http://www.sinfest.net)
It's funny, well drawn and with cute doggies and kitties as well as god and the devil!

Okay. It's not for everyone. But I love it. I would marry Tatsuya.... and I didn't just said that.

Hah.

edit: I also loathe Megatokyo. What is so great about it? Honestly.
