Ack-- I've had this bookmarked for over a year and I keep forgetting about it! I'm reading it now, before I forget again!

There's a comic I want you to link me from it, when you get to it. It involves balloon popping, and an irate stand guy. You'll know the one.

Kid Radd is a very old webcomic that I enjoyed back in the day.

Besides that, Dinosaur Comics, Nedroid, Dr. McNinja. They've all been listed. Minus too.

Man! I was all up into Kid Radd in the day. That was an awesome comic; too bad the trick it was built around seldom works anymore.

This one, right?

I'm already halfway through the archive it seems. I'm really liking it so far. I also found the one that I saw long before I even knew of the comic a few years ago, that got me interested in the first place! I thought that last panel was so incredible :*

That's the one; thanks Matsy!

It's the caps, man, it's the caps.

More stuff from my subscriptions list: Basic Instructions and the ever unfunny but unmissable Doghouse Diaries. There's also Almost Pets which just silently died one day, a real shame because those guys really knew how to make things look pretty.

Gone with the Blastwave is nice, but updates are extremely rare in the last two years or so.

I guess the majority of people already know about MegaTokyo, but it is too awesome not to mention.

I also like XKCD and NerfNow, but these two have already been listed.

While I'm thinking about it, there's a Firefox addon (Morning Coffee) that makes webcomics and shit infinitely easier to keep up with.

Dammit Purvis, you got me reading Minus!

It's been dead for a while, but Men in Hats is hilarious.

Your lack of faith in KC Green is disturbing

I also enjoy Octopus Pie for its carefully measured blend--like a good Starbucks coffee-style beverage--of grounded, believable characters, New York chic, and subtle absurdity (e.g. a secret society of baristas.)

In the same vein as Dinosaur Comics, which is a delight, I like Wondermark--it's one of those wordy comics that actually uses its words really well.

I should also mention Wonderella just because it's unrelentingly silly without falling into epic-monkey-cheese land--and, somehow, makes stiff Illustrator art just work.

And finally, on the other side of the spectrum, The Abominable Charles Christopher and Lackadaisy are pretty much gallery-class work and should be read by anyone with even a passing interest in art or composition

Myschi · « **Reply #41 on:** April 21, 2011, 11:19:48 PM »

My only problem with Lackadaisy is how infrequently it updates, which means I forget to check on it... :ohdear:

Speaking of infrequency! No Rest for the Wicked and Ever After are some of my favorite now-dead comics.

And now I am sad and want them to not be dead...

Kasu · « **Reply #42 on:** April 21, 2011, 11:38:48 PM »

Already mentioned ones I follow are Awkward Zombie and MegaTokyo, however I also enjoy Blip and The Pocalypse.

Seian Verian · « **Reply #43 on:** April 22, 2011, 12:05:04 AM »

Keychain of Creation and Order of the Stick are the only ones I can think of that haven't been mentioned in this topic so far

I feel obligated to add Flipside (NSFW) and 1/0, which has been completed for years.

What, no love for Sam and Fuzzy?
Also, Calamities of Nature.

beat me to it

has Nedroid been mentioned yet?

cause it's great

Jes_Isaive · « **Reply #47 on:** April 22, 2011, 06:12:01 AM »

Since no one mentioned Hejibits...
At least, I don't think anyone did...

Nietz · « **Reply #48 on:** April 22, 2011, 11:39:21 AM »

I have fond memories of reading MacHall while it was still running. Their spiritual successor, Three Panel Soul, is also good.
A Lesson Is Learned But The Damage Is Irreversible is another nice surrealist comic (though also finished).

This is what got me to read Minus the first time, it's also the comic that made me realize what an unforgivably evil creature Minus is

Spoiler:

Fuck Minus, fuck Minus so hard. I hate her so so so so so so SO much!

I'll get to stuff I actually read later, but for every XKCD strip that's somewhat enjoyable, the GoatKCD (NWS NWS NWS NWS) is immeasurably funnier. It's a script that replaces the last (or only) panel of every XKCD strip with Goatse, and it's utterly phenomenal is the most Dada sense.

Pokemon fans: Rare Candy Treatment

This is amazing and going straight into my bookmarks.

Also:
Brawl in the Family - Nintendo webcomics
Mistakes of Youth - A webcomic for the more seasoned anime fan
Black Adventures - Pokemon Gen V webcomic

I also follow VGcats, which I think most already know about, and AWKWARD ZOMBIE, which has already been brought up several times in this thread.

Spoiler:
At first glance, it's a whimsical comic about a young girl standing up to adversity. Despite the impending doom, she readies herself with her bat, waiting to knock the coming asteroid away and save the earth. After reading the archives, she's a selfish monster, willing to gamble the fate of the entirety of humanity. She prepares to sacrifice everyone on the planet Earth so she can have the chance to hit an asteroid with a bat.

Fuck Minus, fuck Minus so hard. I hate her so so so so so so SO much!

What I love the most about that one comic is it unintentionally shows the power of context. Without context it seems inspiring, but when put in context you suddenly realize how horrible it is.

And fuck yes Kid Radd.

Classics: I've read Penny Arcade and Bob the Angry Flower for about 10 years now and they're the only ones from back then I still read. I started reading Boy on a Stick and Slither at the same time, but it's all but officially dead now.

Current: I check Toothpaste for Dinner and the associated comics and SMBC every day.

Others: When I remember to, I usually check Nedroid, Three Word Phrase, Gunshow, Fanboys, Buttersafe, Wonderella, Loneliest Astronauts and Romantically Apocalyptic

Berzul · « **Reply #53 on:** April 23, 2011, 11:07:39 PM »

Oh yea.... this is not mentioned right..? I wonder why.. it's been there like 7 years now. You can take it a try, I honestly do not need any other comic, even if this is pretty much undated like once in a month now...
