Post Webcomics
What (if any) webcomics do you guys read? List and discuss your favorites here.

My own list;

xkcd; a little of this, a little of that. Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. No real storyline here, feel free to go backwards or whatever. SFW

Looking For Group; a WoW/typical MMORPG parody that starts off comical and cliche but turns fairly serious, with some occasional comic relief stirred in. Does have a single continuous storyline, so you'll want to go back to the first comic if you're a new reader. Updated every Monday and Thursday. NSFW (mainly due to Richard).

Bittersweet Candy Bowl; a self-proclaimed "Dramedy" (Drama-Comedy see what they did there how clever) about a group of friends. Kind of a growing-up story. The stories can quickly shift from the dramatic to the comically absurd, but the comic can actually hit home at times with deeper meaning than you might think at first glace. (And yes, the characters are all furries. No, there is no furry-sex. Go away, freak.) Story is broken up into a few dozen chapters so far, each chapter being anywhere from 6 to about 70 pages long. Updated pretty regularly. Might want to start at the first comic. Sometimes NSFW.

Oh, and ironically I found out about BSCB through the McNinja website. Vicious cycle, that.

Blank It; a comic that starts off in a plane of nothing with one guy (who immediately strips) and quickly develops into a colorful and comical webcomic, where randomness and absurdity are the norm. Again, there's a storyline involved, so start from the beginning. SFW.

The Adventures of Dr. McNinja; follows the adventures of Doctor McNinja and all of his wacky friends (such as his ninja family [which includes a mother that tries to kill him whenever he goes home], a 12 year old mustached sidekick that rides a velociraptor named Yoshi, a clone of Benjamin Franklin, and a gorilla named Judy as an office assistant. See the good doctor face off against giant lumberjacks, ghosts, Dracula (on his moon base), and of course, pirates. Broken up into chapters/episodes which each have a few dozen pages. Updates every now and then. May want to start at the first chapter. Sometimes NSFW.

Gone With The Blastwave; GWTB is a pretty lighthearted comic about a war between the Reds, Blues, and Yellows taking place in a city that seems to be infinitely large. If you like pew-pew, zombies, and tanks being dropped on people from rooftops, this is your comic. Updates have been rare recently, but they did add like 3 more comics since I was last at the site, so maybe they'll be be a little more regular. Bit of a vague storyline, but it's there, so once again ya' might want to start from the first chapter. SFW



Now, gogogo. If you post up any comics that could potentially be NSFW, mark 'em :P ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE TENTACLES.

Oh Ragdoll, you and your tentacles.

Of course, there's always penny arcade or axecop.

Ctrl Alt Del. Webcomic with an overarching story, with other, nonrelated gaming comics inside.

Penny Arcade. No ♥♥♥♥.

Erfworld. A tabletop gamer gets sucked into a game much like one of his own making. Contains, to my knowledge, one NSFW word. But very much in context. I cannot recommend this one enough. It's an actual comic.

Order of the Stick. Webcomic about a group in a D&D dungeon.

Awkward Zombie. Girl gamer's comic about mostly Nintendo games. Some small story, mostly observations.

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal. Possibly NSFW? Single panel comics.

Nuklear Power. Contains the fabled 8-Bit theatre, about a group of (8 bit) Final Fantasy stereotypes.
Also, damn you, you ninja'd my Questionable Content. I'm at 400.

Also, mouse over every xkcd comic.

I had both of those listed originally but I think I would have looked like a walrus posting up what would arguably be the most popular webcomic on the interweb and a comic that I know people already read (there was that whole "OMIGAWSH AXECOP-MCNINJA COMIC GUISE" thread a little while back, after all)

Dinosaur Comics - excellent webcomic consisting of the exact same 6 panels every comic, with only the dialogue changing. More importantly, it's probably the most intelligent webcomic I've ever read. Highly recommended. Also, they're doing guest comics right now due to the death of the author's mother-in-law, but go back a few comics for authentic examples of T-Rex being TOTALLY RAD.

Dresden Codak - another excellent webcomic, with one long storyline done and another in the starting stages, along with plenty of one-shots. Hard to describe, so just read Lantern Season.

It's a ♥♥♥♥ T-Rex, of course it's "TOTALLY RAD". I agree on it being a highly intelligent comic though.

Humor+40k+sonic+starwars+otherawesomeshit= Exterminatus now
Penny arcade indeed, cyanide and happiness as well.
Dueling analogs, Penny arcade ripoff, and they know it.
The zombie hunters, high quality drawing, good story and semi regular updates. Must see.

K guise I am a wuss, I just finished reading through all of the currently written 400+ pages of Bittersweet Candy Bowl and I think... I think I have developed feelings.

In all seriousness, it suffers from Cerebus Syndrome- it starts off lighthearted and generally plotless but when the main characters get out of middle school and start high school, ♥♥♥♥ gets dramatic. And not in the good way, either, like Chuck Norris suddenly bursting into your room riding a T-Rex with miniguns for arms- it's that emotional kind of dramatic that really tugs on your heartstrings and hits home.

...assuming you have a heart, of course, or at least some empathy. Maybe some of the older members with calloused souls could turn a blind eye to it, but my hormonally racked underdeveloped heart is waging all out war with the logical portion of my brain, which is screaming "THEY ARE FURRIES IN A WEB COMIC CALM THE HELL DOWN AND GO PUNCH SOMETHING, PANSY." :|

Anyways, my point is that drugs are bad for you and this webcomic has affected me a lot more than I expected it to, which is surprising. I can't even exactly pinpoint what I like so much about it- the plot? The characters? The underlying themes? Maybe everything rolled up into some kind of tasty, dramatic burrito? Regardless, out of all the comics I've listed so far, it's undoubtedly my favorite for having an actual story with characters I give a crap about rather than 2-D cutouts being destroyed in a flurry of testosterone-loaded violence (although the latter type of comic is still very amusing to read through).
