Webcomics

Everybody knows most webcomics are crap. Let's have an argument over which ones aren't.

I nominate XKCD.

This one I found via PCKF back in the day... It's quite good. :)

But I read none regularly, generally I don't care about any of them.

Yes XKCD and Perry Bible Fellowship are both quite good. I also like Toothpaste for Dinner. Not as consistently amazing as those other two, but it updates every day (as opposed to 3 times per week, and once a week, respectively).

Anyway, ones I kinda like include:

http://www.xkcd.com
http://www.pixelcomic.net/
http://pbfcomics.com/
http://spamusement.com/
http://whiteninjacomics.com/

Also, this isn't a webcomic, but it's relevant, and it's a pretty good blog:

I read Order of the Stick, which I feel has had consistently good writing for quite some time. It's a Dungeons & Dragons -based comic, so your mileage may vary, but I like it. :)

Ah, yes, the Keen comic, almost forgot that. :)

Spleen, what's the idea behind that Zucchinis? :D

Seems like everyone likes XKCD. Probably because it's good.

Ha, I don't like it. :p I don't think it's funny, because I hate the kind of jokes it consists of. And I don't like its simplistic style either, most likely it's the best the author can draw. Sorry all fans, but I just don't like that comic!

It absolutely isn't (scroll through the archives a bit), the guy can make some good and realistic stuff, but he doesn't need it for his humour.

I have a list of around 40 webcomics I read, from ok to very good. Will post a list later.
Wow look at me I'm lurking

Hmmm, I don't think those fewer strips with pictures are that good, nor realistic. They don't save the comic. :dopekeen I'm not saying badly drawn can't be good, but I just don't want to view a comic that doesn't even hide its badness with great pictures. Although, I probably wouldn't care of comic that has stoopid concent with nice pictures, either.

40? :eek How do you have time to do anything else?
