    sluggy.com

    I'm suprised that nobody has posted this one yet. It has been going on for close to ten years so there's a huge archive to read through. It has a good blend of plot and humor And a bad*** switchblade wielding bunny. Ka-click
    <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    yah, the reason why I always forget about sluggy is the it gets MASSIVELY boring when it goes on story arcs. The first few years are great, but I can't stand his stuff any more (sluggy was admittedly the first webcomic I read.

    A warning about D&D:
    He doesn't seem to update much ;(
    And yah, the art style is kinda similar to Goblins (Goblins is currently one of my favorite comics)

    Oh, and yah, GG is actualy a collection of graphic novels, not a webcomic. They (phil and Kaja Foglio) are just currently putting it up online, you can go out and buy them at some comic shops, or just buy them via their store (from Warehouse 23, the SJ Games store).

    I saw this topic the other day. I was able to glance at the new posts. I hate being busy.

    My <a href="http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/share.php?id=8641" target="_blank">ever-growing list of things I read</a> contains a bunch of goodies, some of which are on the list already here. Here are some notables off my list...

    <a href="http://www.plusev.net/" target="_blank">+EV</a> A comic about poker.
    <a href="http://www.sorethumbsonline.com/" target="_blank">Sore Thumbs</a> Game store, politics, craziness.
    <a href="http://www.starcrossd.net" target="_blank">Star Crossed Destiny</a> Sci-Fi coolness.
    <a href="http://ardra.xepher.net/" target="_blank">Ardra</a> Female Scientist and her two kids. (Beginning to right when Trevor Adams [former artist of Least I Could Do] disappeared is the best.)
    <a href="http://www.mod-life.com/nw/" target="_blank">Night Warrior</a> Insomniac Vigilante kicking butt. 'Nuff said. (I may see about drawing an issue over summer, since I will have time.)
    <a href="http://crap.jinwicked.com/" target="_blank">Crap I Drew on my Lunch Break</a> Originally was exactly what the title suggested, now it is her full time thing. (One of my fav's)
    <a href="http://worldsworstwebcomic.com/" target="_blank">World's Worst Webcomic</a> See title.
    <a href="http://www.level99comic.com/" target="_blank">Level 99</a> Gaming comic, cute n funny.
    <a href="http://www.breaktangents.com/action.html" target="_blank">Action Figure Graveyard</a> Think Perry Bible Fellowship and Robot Chicken
    <a href="http://snafu-comics.com/" target="_blank">Snafu Comics</a> Coolness. Also has a few very good other comics they do on it (Like Grim Tales or The Powerpuff Girls Doujinshi.

    There are a few others probably not on the NS list that I read, and lots others I am still reading and haven't put up yet (I try to read the archives up to current before I add it to the list)

    Heh, and cool, I made the list. ^_^
    Guess I'll dust off the drawing pad now I have time. ^_^;

    Muahahahaha!

    Heh, I actualy just got turned on to sore tumbs by some one else.

    As you might remember, I also read Crap, however she really does not update much any more, le sigh.

    Random note:
    I still find it very amusing that the only person to recommend Sluggy is some random fanboy with one post <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />


    /em gets to work adding commics.
  • GreeGree Join Date: 2003-05-18 Member: 16454Members
    Is it sad that most of the comics mentioned in this list I already read or am going to read now? What is even worse is that, as of this post, the folder that contains the webcomics I check on Monday contains 95 unique bookmarks; and most of them were not mentioned by anyone here. Rather than spamming the thread with approximately 150 links, I will just post a few of the ones I find greatly amusing (that have not been mentioned before).
    (Quick note, my descriptions are terrible.)


    <a href="http://www.giantitp.com/comics/erf0042.html" target="_blank">Battle For Gobwin Knob</a> Some D&D humor, basically a D&D player gets sucked into a D&D universe where he must win a seemingly unwinnable battle.
    <a href="http://get-medieval.livejournal.com/" target="_blank">Get Medieval</a> Humanoid Aliens, on the run from a criminal organization, Land in medieval Europe: comedy ensues.
    <a href="http://blacktapestries.comicgen.com/" target="_blank">Black Tapestries</a> A violent comic where a thief gets cursed and the thief is on the run from nearly every form of authority.
    <a href="http://talesfromthevault.com/thunderstruck/" target="_blank">Thunderstruck</a> Two sisters learn that magic is real, and seek to learn the truth about their grandfather.
    <a href="http://www.wanderingones.com/" target="_blank">Wandering Ones</a> A post apocalyptic future where a clan, and its members, must deal with a coming war and a clandestine allied military organization.
    <a href="http://indavo.comicgenesis.com/" target="_blank">Indavo</a> Space explorers dealing with the problems they encounter and doing general hero stuff( it is much better than I make it sound).
    <a href="http://www.electric-manga.com/index.html" target="_blank">Kagerou</a> This one is really difficult to describe, in short, this comic is very strange...

    There are more, but I can't bring myself to continue to go through my list, since it takes quite a while to find the exceptional ones.
  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    BWAUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    it matters not that your descriptions are terrible, for they are going in any way!

    oh, and woot.

    I never looked around Giants for other comics, I don't know why....

    and I completely forgot about Kagerou! (one of the many webcomics lost in computer formats)

    So thanks for the comics, some very good ones int there it looks like.

    We should make the list in categories like (Story/Humor/Gaming) for their different genres, rather than if the comic is dead or not. I'm in the mood to read a comic that's based around a story, but if I read through that whole list I'll have enough reading for the day.
  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    you are right, and I will try to go through it (and would appreciate any help, as I don't read all those comics... yet)

    However off the top of my head for story based comics:
    Goblins
    Girl Genius
    Order of the Stick
    Brat Halla
    Darken
    LFG
    Megatokyo:
    Misfile
    Flipside
    Inverloch
    Talisman
    Earth Song
    Metrophor
    Zap! In Sapce
    Penny and Aggie
    TwoKinds
    WT<b>F</b>
    Bunnerkrigg Court
    The Zombie Hunters
    Garanos
    Domin Deegan (Read This one, seriously)
    Battle For Gobwin Knob
    Kagerou

    mkay, as I said, just the top of my head.

    WTHcomics, read it due to a post about it in this thread, but it seems discontinued?
    <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Just to clarify, it looks discontinued because the writer goes for a side-story/prequel "Smoke" for a while.
    <a href="http://WTHcomics.com/smoke/index.html" target="_blank">http://WTHcomics.com/smoke/index.html</a>

    WT'eff''s the main story arc just got updated.

    EDIT: Ah my mistake, looks like it really was just not updated for months.
    EDIT2: Damn you CENSORING.

    I would point out that WT<b>F</b> updates VERY slowly, there have been 2 updates to it after it got posted to the list (I think) and no updates to the Smoke Comics.

    Hmm, on the note of getting the list beter.

    what sections should things be split into?

    One Offs?
    Humor One offs?
    Random One Offs?
    Humor Stories?
    Serious Stories?
    Humor with Plot Arcs?

    bugger, classifying webcomics is hard.

    This is the point that a properly set up database would be nice <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    God, I can't believe I forgot this one.

    <a href="http://www.lucid-tv.com/index.html" target="_blank">Lucid TV</a> - a hilarious comic, mostly about doctors/medicine. It's sometimes a little obscure (takes a moment or two to get the joke) but usually it isn't, and it's always great. It doesn't just have one style; it's all sorts of funny. You never know what kind of joke it's going to be next.

    Gone with the Blastwave <a href="http://www.blastwavecomic.com/comics/fake.jpg" target="_blank">fake update?</a> Well at least there is an update.

    @TychoCelchuuu, t'is a funny comic indeed this lucid TV <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    <!--coloro:#666666--><span style="color:#666666"><!--/coloro-->Oh and, ehm... I said I was going to start me own comic a while back? I finally took the big step to actually realizing it (this thread actually pushed me over the edge). Well as me sig says, started the day before yesterday. Thought it would be nice to do the launch here (y'know there being a thread and all about webcomics). Also because this is kind of the place I'm most active at on the mighty intarweb <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />

    First panel done, next will be posted today (update interval should be 3/4 times a week)

    Too quote the description meta tag:
    <a href="http://www.existence-unknown.com/" target="_blank">Existence Unknown</a> is a webcomic, with optional flash animation, created by Martin Borgman. Science fiction and comedy are the main keywords of this comic.


    I've been reluctant about doing the launch announcement, because at first there is not much to look at (1 page). So no archive to spend a few hours on. Also the forum is work in progress. It works 100% and the style has been modified to be part of the site, but I'm putting off throwing it online until I get a small archive of stuff to look at)...<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->

    and here I go again (long posts alert <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />, grayed it out for discreteness if at all possible)

  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    Just stumbled uppon a new comic:

    <a href="http://www.thebookofbiff.com/" target="_blank">BIFF</a>: One panel comics about Biff, and horrible things that happen to him. (Thansal)

    Random, yet relatively witty (or just insane depending on the strip)
  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    Heh, *BUMP*

    2 new comics. Ok, so they have both been around for a long time (as far as webcomics go), but still...

    <a href="http://www.elfonlyinn.net/" target="_blank">Elf Only Inn</a>: Old (2002) webcomic about an RP Chatroom. Was revived last year as a MMORPG comic with the old characters. (Thansal)
    <a href="http://www.shd-wk.com/" target="_blank">Spiky-Haired Dragon, Worthless Knight</a>: Spiky-Haired Dragon, Worthless Knight: The tale of a cursed knight who cannot take up a weapon and the cute dragonlet who became his squire. Cute with a good story. (Thansal)

    Slight bump here but this is awesome, but I couldn't justify making a new thread.

    <a href="http://horribleville.com/" target="_blank">Horrible Ville</a>

    The author/artist does a few comics but this is my favourite (he does one called Droop that can be hilarious but is far more miss than hit).

    It's generally random things that make me laugh. Such as:
