Re: Top-Notch Webcomics!

(warning: highly repetitive from the other thread)

I'm a big fan of UZC. Basically, one of the dudes on one of the web sites I go to created a comic containing folks from the forums.

Except they're animals.

Sometimes there are some inside jokes in the comic, but overall it's still pretty darn funny without prior knowledge.

Re: Top-Notch Webcomics!

So I did say I'd post more once I got back to the dorm...

First, the ones I used to read in the paper....all of these are from Comics.com.
9 Chickweed Lane
For Better or For Worse
Jump Start
Rose is Rose
One Big Happy

And then you have your true webcomics...be forewarned, not all are PG all the time.

College Roomies from H-ll!!! - My absolute favorite serial webcomic out there. Doesn't make much sense (at all, sometimes), but Martiza Campos is an amazing storyteller. If I'm awake around 1am, I will usually wait until 2 am for her to post the new one, it's that good.

Sinfest - Although the name throws the new reader off, Tatsuya Ishida continually puts out some of the wittiest stuff online. Although every cartoonist has an off-day, it's rare for Sinfest to be anything but stellar.

Re: Top-Notch Webcomics!

I'm not a big fan of comics myself, but I do enjoy some Calvin and Hobbes and of course, everyone's favorite comic engineer, Dilbert.

Re: Top-Notch Webcomics!

I like www.orneryboy.com it's such a funny comic. Great stuff.
There was another one, but I'll have to get it from my friend Jamie.
I forgot it...I'll post it as soon as I can!
