Webcomic Recommendations

[Captain K.]

Link to any webcomics you want to spread the word on.

=================
www.misfile.com is still awesome.  Boy gets turned into a girl via mixup in heaven.  Also has copious amounts of car racing if you're into that.  It starts kind of weak, but once they get past the "hur hur, the angel uses pot" stage, you get a rather good exploration of gender dynamics.

Oh, and the boy/girl's father is a gynecologist.

New comic, but looks pretty promising.  Seems this guy has done a lot of other comics - I'll have to check them out as well.

Powerup Comics is the best gaming webcomic ever.

Some of the comments are actually pretty funny.

Then I got to the people trying to defend it, and my brain kinda puked on itself.

Holy shit, I never bothered with the comments before. I love this comic even more.

Edit-Jesus fucking christ these must be the people who overanalyze PBF comics.

DINOSAUR FUCKING COMICS

You can't go wrong with Cyanide and Happiness!

Actually, wait, yeah you can.  It takes a certain sense of humor to enjoy CaH, and if you don't have it you will probably just think it is crude and pointless.  Only one way to find out whether you'll like it or not, eh?

[Talaysen]

Everyone in this thread fails for not mentioning http://www.xkcd.com/

Best one-panel (usually) comic on the Internet?

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.

[Cotigo]

www.drmcninja.com

He is an Irish-American Ninja who is also a doctor with a Gorilla receptionist and a little boy bandito sidekick.  He has a raptor.  His family is currently fighting a ghost wizard who is also a senator.  Ben Franklyn's clone was killed but thanks to an immortality potion Dracula helped him create he came back alive (along with everybody else in the cemetery, including the original Ben Franklyn), with the catch that now he must eat human hair else turn into the headless horseman.  He is being stalked by a horse.

Powerup Comics is the best gaming webcomic ever.

This....is so staggeringly unfunny that I almost suspect it's intentional. It's like someone set out to make the webcomic equivalent of Family Circus.

Anyway, I only follow a couple regularly:

Slow Wave, a four-panel comic derived from dreams submitted by readers. As absurd as you might expect: http://www.slowwave.com/index.php

Dresden Codak, updated infrequently and more amusing when it didn't have a plot, but still quirky (somewhere, Niels Bohr walks among us, unobserved and immortal): http://dresdencodak.com/index.html

Antihero for Hire, half-serious, half-satirical take on superheroing as a regulated industry: http://www.antiheroforhire.com/

Kid Radd wrapped up years ago, but I'm still hyping the thing in case anyone missed it. Sprite comic done right, with all original designs: http://www.kidradd.com/

Ding ding ding. I was wondering when somebody was going to figure it out.

Though I can understand why it would be hard to see it's a satire, it does such a wonderful job of emulating actual terrible gaming webcomics in so many ways without getting too obvious.

[Magic Fanatic]

...Get ready for a long list.

http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/

Why is this not here yet?


http://www.bunny-comic.com/

You can't tell me this isn't at least as awesome as xkcd.


http://goblinscomic.com/

Updates may be sporadic, but it's still an awesome read.


http://captainsnes.com/

...Yep, this is awesome too.  A serious sprite comic - I don't know how he did it, but it's done.


http://www.ozyandmillie.org/

My opinion that Ozy and Millie >= Bunny.

[VySaika]

http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/

Irregular Webcomic. Done with legos and gaming minis, and running multiple themes. Everything from Ye Olde Standard Fantasy Gaming Theme to Lego Mythbusters to an Indiana Jones-esque theme to a What If Shakespear Were Born In the Modern Times thing. One of my favorite webcomics all around.

Also, seconding the Girl Genius hype.

DINOSAUR FUCKING COMICS

HELL YES.

[Grefter]

Uh people had to actually think about that Power Up thing to get it?  I read through the whole thing last night and it is pretty damned funny in the intentionally unfunny way.  Not worth reading more of ever or reading regularly, but it is still funny by not being funny.

Get more post modern.  How can people like Dada comics like Dinosaur Comics and Dr McNinja and not get Power Up is beyond me.

Now DM of the Rings everyone should have read already.
http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?cat=14
Guy running through LotR movie screen caps and playing them out as a cliche D&D session.  Very funny after he gets in his stride.

Which brings up Chainmail Bikini http://www.feartheboot.com/comic 
Which is the same guy branching out into drawn comics rather than screen caps (with an artist obviously).  Funny in and of itself and funnier to read the comments that accompany each comic.

And to tie things together with Gate's post
http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/darthsanddroids/
The guy from Irregular Webcomic doing the same thing as DM of the Rings but with Star Wars, still on Episode 1 at the moment.

Edit - Oh yeah and some day there might be someone else that likes Chopping Block.

Scary-Go-Round.  It is awesome.  And British, but mostly awesome.

[Cotigo]

Uh.  Wait.  You mean that people didn't get that Powerup was supposed to be intentionally bad?

Kay...

Re:  Chopping block

The one for today was pretty good, the others I've read not so much.  Might be something there.

Re:  Bunny-whatever

...Seriously, guy?  As awesome as xkcd?  This comic sucks.

[Grefter]

Chopping Block isn't great for once off laugh out loud stuff and often uses kind of stale jokes at times.  It wins with cold hearted relentless determination and art style.  There is only so many jokes you can make about the human condition and with serial killer archetypes, it is how each one is approached and portrayed that gets it.  Also the pain staking work put into each individual comic is pretty cool as well.

If it had been in any other format I would have stopped reading it a long time ago, but the short sharp one panel humor works really well for what it is.  Kind of Familly Circus style done in a way that makes sense.

[superaielman]

Going to have to give chopping block a shot. I like the style.

[NotMiki]

Best one-panel (usually) comic on the Internet?

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.

Replace that question mark with a period, and you've got something.

Also, http://www.thebookofbiff.com/ is worth a shot.  Pretty uneven ideas, but if you like the execution, you'll find a lot to like.

[DomaDragoon]

Besides the ones already mentioned (including a resounding repeat of Kid Radd - watch. NOW.), here's my recommendations: http://www.giantitp.com/Comics.html

Order of the Stick, and Erfworld. The former's a pretty popular D+D campaign style, while the latter is my view of the hellish world I shall cast all ye Fire Emblem lovers into once I become omnipotent.

[Captain K.]

I like Erfworld, but it's starting to drag.  Plus updates only once a week - if you're lucky.

OotS is good at the beginning, has been fairly lame for a while.

[BaconForTheSoul]

Dunno if people share most of my tastes for webcomics, but here goes.

Might have found this one on old forum here?  Either way, owns.

http://www.plusev.net/d/20060811.html
Poker comic, doesn't update much any more... probably because it's going downhill.  Earlier/mid stuff is decent though.

http://www.marrymemovie.com/main/2007/02/14/page-1-ex-boyfriends/
Romantic/Comedy... not bad and reading the comments amuses the evil inside of me.  (I'm banned from posting on most of my IPs)

http://www.sinfest.net/
Think most people have at least heard of this one, it's been around for ages.

http://www.sorethumbsonline.com/d/20040308.html
Also been around for ages, politicalish humor oftentimes.

Spiky Haired Dragon Worthless Knight.  Title says it all.

Seven years old.  First year kinda meh, next five solid, most previous year meh again.  About people who write comics.

Schools in Japan are weird.  Not sure why I like a story about guys who sing with makeup on, but I do!
