I use to read Megatokyo for a few months, but now I don’t even bother.  
Like: Something Positive, Sinfest, Real Life, Sexy Losers

Any recommendations?

Sinfest, PVP, Penny Arcade, and Dork Tower are on my list.

Something Positive, Penny Arcade, PvP though I don’t know why I almost never laugh. I used to check out Sexy Losers but it lost its appeal to me. There are a few that I used to have bookmarked but lost when I upgraded my computer and didn’t care enough to find again. I’m starting to read “Least I Could Do” where I detest the main character (which is obviously the point he’s a complete womanizer jerk) I haven’t decided if it’s a keeper or not.

[Pibgorn.](http://www.comics.com/comics/pibgorn/) I was so tickled when Thorax showed up as, first a cameo, and now a regular. And then yesterday, when I saw Edda and Seth walk down the street and greet him and Mozart, it floored me.

There are a few I read from time to time, but the only ones brilliant enough for me to check religiously are Spamusement (updated thrice weekly) and Dinosaur Comics (daily). I’m kicking myself because the Dinosaur Comics guy was at SPX this weekend (as was I), but I didn’t know it until after the show ended.

My Big Five are:

- [Goats](http://www.goats.com)
- [Penny Arcade](http://www.penny-arcade.com)
- [Scary Go Round](http://www.scarygoround.com)
- [PVP](http://www.pvponline.com)
- [Questionable Content](http://www.questionablecontent.net)

I have also been amused by MegaTokyo, Sinfest, Explodingdog, Dinosaur Comics, and a long long time ago, UserFriendly. But UserFriendly – other than pioneering the logistics of making a living off a webcomic – basically sucks now. The art is really crap compared to some of the other great webcomics. Goats is beginning to drift into suckitude, too, although their non-sequiturs make funny t-shirts.

Penny Arcade and Scary Go Round are really doing amazing work with the art of comics, but there’s really nothing new under the sun as far as scripting goes.

Today’s Penny Arcade is very funny. That’s the only one I read, unless you count Spamusement, which you probably wouldn’t.

**[Achewood](http://www.achewood.com)** is on my daily circuit and should be on everyone else’s.

[Spamusement!](http://www.spamusement.com) and [Penny Arcade](http://www.penny-arcade.com) are the only others I read regularly.

I like [Scary-go-Round](http://www.scarygoround.com), but it comes and goes and I’m not crazy about the new art style.

And [Lore Brand Comics](http://www.lorebrandcomics.com) is always funny, but comes out sporadically.

I follow about 40 different comics, so I’m not going to bother listing all of them. My short list: Sluggy, S\*P, ScaryGoRound, Wigu/Overcompensating, Dominic Deegan, 8BT, Ornery Boy, Penny Arcade, and my favorite, [A Lesson is Learned but the Damage is Irreversible](http://www.alessonislearned.com).

Used to read PvP regularly, but after a while I just got tired of it. Not sure if it was the strip or Scott Kurtz’s assholish behavior that did it, though.
