prompted, of course, by the “What is your favorite comic strip” [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=3cc403d).

I noticed that few (if any) people were listing online comics. I was hoping that I could find some good ones out there, apart from the ones I already read.

My favorites are [Megatokyo](http://www.megatokyo.com) and [Penny Arcade](http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3)

I love the much underappreciated [http://oneoverzero.keenspace.com/](http://oneoverzero.keenspace.com/)

[http://www.boxjamsdoodle.com](http://www.boxjamsdoodle.com) is an inspiration to me; simple art but hilarious.

[http://www.pentasmal.com](http://www.pentasmal.com) is eerily like watching me and my friend Chris interact if we were both cartoonishly invulnerable.

My favorite is [Sinfest](http://www.sinfest.net).

Of course, there’s always [Polymer City](http://www.polymer-city.com), a gamer’s comic like Megatokyo (at least, the older ones are).

And for the geeks out there who play Angband, [The Angband Comic](http://www.midcoast.com/~jcole).

Sluggy Freelance.

I even got my stuffed Bun-bun a few days ago and he’s currently holding a position of honor in my car. Soon he’ll defend my desk at work against nerd-boys and telemarketers alike.

Sluggy used to be my favorite, but I lost all interest in it back during the Gwen/Kizke final battle thingy.

So… many…

First, what everyone else said. 😉  
[GPF](http://www.gpf-comics.com) has the most addicting storyline right now.  
[Real Life](http://www.reallifecomics.com) makes me laugh the most.  
[PVP](http://www.pvponline.com) and [RPG World](http://www.rpgworldcomic.com/) for sheer geekiness.  
[Chopping Block](http://www.choppingblock.org/) and [You Damn Kid](http://www.youdamnkid.com) for sick and twistedness.

And that’s just for starters. 😃

I really like on-line comics. Apart from what everyone else has said, I would like to add

[Exploitation Now!](http://www.exploitationnow.com/) - Yes, it is low, perverted, immature, and at times stupid… but it was my first web-comic and it always makes me laugh very hard. (Warning: The author is very immature and once in a blue moon will draw some :eek: topless characters. If you have a no-tolerence workplace, don’t click on the link)

[Ozy and Millie](http://www.ozyandmillie.org/) - I LOVE this comic. Truly, it is the successor to Calvin and Hobbes (really, it is that good. Buy the books, mugs and anything else. Seriously.)

[Fat Jesus](http://fatjesus.keenspot.com/) - It is the second coming - and the first thing you notice is that Jesus did not exercise in the time he spent away. Funny

[S.S.D.D.](http://www.poisonedminds.com/) - Ah, England. 😃

[Acid Reflux](http://www.acidrefluxcomic.com/) - Wild, zany, imaginative, you gotta love it. I strongly recommend getting hooked on this comic. Not for the overly religious.

Well, those are the ones I read. i like them all. Now, before trying to get the owners to pay for my promotional work, I leave you with my sig, for which no explanation is needed:

This board takes off the “show sig” feature upon previewing. Damn.

Anyway,

i’ll second [PVP](http://www.pvponline.com) and [Real Life](http://www.reallifecomics.com/). i also love [Sabrina OnLine](http://www.sabrina-online.com/thismonth.html), it’s just a shame it’s only updated monthly…

Try [Bob the Angry Flower](http://www.angryflower.com). I find it hilarious, but most other people I know just don’t get it.

The ones I read-

Choppingblock (it’s my favorite. Serial killers are people too, you know)  
Sluggy  
Ancient Messages  
Ghastly  
Kevin and Kell  
User Friendly  
Blotto Street  
Avalon High  
PVP  
Sinfest  
Sherman’s Lagoon  
You damn kid  
Red Meat  
Real life

I used to read Aren’t We Real, Acid Reflux, Sexy Losers, and Cool Cat Studio, but all of those have disappeared now. There’s also a few that I’ve just given up on account of no regular updating.

Favorite Space Moose strip:

Space Moose - Hey buddy. I just shat my bed. Can I sleep with you tonight?

Bald Dwarf - Well…as long as you don’t try anything funny.

Space Moose - Do you consider aggravated homosexual assault funny?

I usually read, in roughly this order:

Sluggy Freelance  
User Friendly  
Bruno the Bandit  
Kevin and Kell (a classic!)  
The 'Top (which is on vacation this week, damnit)  
8-Bit Theater  
Megatokyo  
Exploitation Now  
And Random Ravings from Azeroth/Sanctuary, whenever Darkness puts up a new one.
