In order, every morning I check up on _Kevin & Kell, Sluggy Freelance, GPF, Sinfest, PvP,_ and _Dork Tower_ (over at [GameSpy.com](http://GameSpy.com)). ---

My favorite at present is MegaTokyo. I also like EN, Goats, and Penny Arcade. Also, if you’re over (insert appropriate age of majority in your region of the world), you may get a kick out of Sexy Losers - an adult comic strip that used to be called “The Thin H Line” but recently packed up and renamed absolutely everything. I still have no idea why, and nobody wants to tell me. Anyhoo, I’m not gonna give you the URL - if you can’t figure it out from the name, you’re definitely too young to be reading it. ;] -Ben ---

[http://www.dieselsweeties.com](http://www.dieselsweeties.com) what’s not to love…robots, indie rockers and former porno stars…🙂 [POKEY THE PENGUIN](http://www.yellow5.com/pokey/) i love penguins!!! “i’m wearin my pants on my face!!” :)) ---

My daily comic surfing takes me to: [When I Grow Up](http://www.whenigrowup.net) Anchorwoman Zoe Day and her f\*cked-up friends do things and stuff. [Clan of the Cats](http://www.clanofthecats.com) A usually-serious, story-arc-driven comic about a shapeshifting witch. [Penny Arcade](http://www.penny-arcade.com) Gamer’s heaven. Tycho and Gabe deliver the Funny every M-W-F. The newspost is not to be missed. [The Second Coming](http://www.mpog.com/t2c) The guy who draws this is just finishing his freshman year in college, but I find it to be consistently (very) funny and well-drawn. Updated sporadically due to crazy college life. [Narbonic](http://www.narbonic.com) A mad scientist strip drawn by a longtime MiSTie and comic fan. Peruse the archives, where the mutant ur-gerbils and ANTONIO SMITH, FORENSIC LINGUIST will entertain you. [Pffft!](http://www.pffft.net) A new one, updated weekly. So far, three girls have been transported to space for no apparent reason. Their enemy? Popeboy. Last week they set poptarts on fire! [PvP](http://www.pvponline.com) Kudos to Scott Kurtz for putting such a positive face on women in the gaming world. Indeed, kudos to Scott for depicting them at all. [Sluggy Freelance](http://www.sluggy.com) The 300-pound gorilla of my webcomics lineup. It’s consistently the funniest thing in history, and when my mom and I were running the recent Camp Heartland raffle on their site, we learned that Pete and T-Shirt Guy Tom are real class acts. Read this one until your eyes pop out of their sockets. [User Friendly](http://www.userfriendly.org/static) I’m not a Linux user and I don’t think this one is as funny as the others on the list. However, it keeps me up to date on tech issues and provides smiles when I think of the unbridled hatred the Penny Arcade boyz have for Illiad and his little doodles. And there’s occasionally some really funny stuff here. It keeps me reading. ---

I’d say my top three are [Soap on a Rope](http://www.soaprope.com/), [goats](http://www.goats.com/), and [Chopping Block](http://www.choppingblock.org/), but I read a bunch. ---

Actually this is a series of Flash movies but Radiskull and Devil Doll at [http://www.joesparks.com/](http://www.joesparks.com/) is my absoulte fav. It has some rockin tunes too! ---

I’ll submit another vote for _Tom the Dancing Bug_. ---

No-one’s mentioned [Real Life](http://www.reallifecomics.com/)yet? Another Sinfest and Bobbins fan checking in. Another one worth a look for an ongoing storyline is [Cool Cats Studio](http://www.coolcatstudio.com/) I’m a HHHHHUUUUUUGE Platinum Grit fan Dragwyr, but it didn’t start life as an online comic. It’s an old-fashioned comic book, well at least for the first ten issues. The last one is only available online. Though how you could follow it without reading the first seven issues is interesting. The first couple were the best (and most surreal). College Roomies From Hell isn’t too bad either… ---

[Bruno](http://www.baldwinpage.com/bruno.html) is my very very favorite in the world right now. A friend of mine who insisted that I **am** Bruno pointed me in its direction, and several friends to whom I have pointed out the strip have agreed. I’m nowhere near that cool, though. How sick. I don’t even measure up to the coolness of a comic strip. Also a **Sluggy** and **Sinfest** and **Real Life** lover here. And **User Friendly**. I also like [Down to Earth](http://downtoearth.ncbuy.com/). Ooo, and [url=“[http://www.gpf-comics.com/](http://www.gpf-comics.com/)”]General Protection Fault\*\*. ---

I dunno if it’s printed anywhere or not, but [The Parking Lot is Full](http://www.plif.com) is a killer! ---

**Penny Arcade** and **Red Meat** , definitely. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-is-your-favorite-online-comic/66223.md?page=1)
