Whats your favorite webcomic and why?
Justin:
blar on chugworth.. blar i say! nothing personal, i just don't like the comic. his art is good though, i'll give him that.
perry bible fellowship, as mentioned, is freakin' hilarious, as well as penny-arcade, dr. mcninja, white ninja, overcompensating, yes yes ofcourse ofcourse...
I really liked Reman Mythology, but she's not updating it currently, got plans to start over. Just beautiful art and neat story. She's currently working on Sorcerers and Secretaries, which is being published by tokyopop. it's good, but I miss Reman Mythology.
I love Penny and Aggie for the same reasons, although the story here is decidedly different, more "down to earth" and "real", you know. It's funny and extremely well drawn.
Minus is super cool. A Magical girl in our mudane world is how i describe it... The art is great, done in ink and water color from what i can tell, and I have nothing but respect for people that work in traditional mediums.
Lunchbox:
I find that QC is the only comic I've managed to get addicted to (well, aside from QoW, but the reruns are just making me twitchy). I read a few others but just can't fall in love with them.
Except for White Ninja. White Ninja is fabulous.
Thnikkaman:
QC and Dr. McNinja tie for first place. Penny Arcade and CAD fight it out for second (third?).
And Homestar Runner, of course, except I don't think that counts.
Edit: As to why, both QC and McNinja have storylines which really drag me in, as well as being a fun read. Homestar Runner just clicked perfectly with my sense of humour.
TrueNeutral:
In no particular order -
The Adventures of Dr McNinja by Chris Hastings (inks by Kent Archer) because there is nothing that has ever come close to combining all the fun things into a whole that remains fun.
El Goonish Shive by Dan Shive because I'm addicted to it's Soap Opera-ish story and because it's easy to like the characters.
Shortpacked! by David 'Walky' Willis because it's just fucking funny.
Count Your Sheep by Adrian Ramos because it's the cutest thing this side of the Milky Way.
Dominic Deegan: Oracle For Hire by Michael 'Mookie' Terracciano because I love the fantasy setting and the epic stories.
Goblins: Life Through Their Eyes by Tarol Hunt because it has the perfect combination of humor, action, drama and good art.
Applegeeks by Mohammad F. Haque and Ananth Panagariya because [same as goblins×2].
Questionable Content by Jeph Jaques because of it's solid characters and unpredictability.
Boy Genius by Jennifer Tanner because it's fun to see the Spider-man characters as kids and the jokes are very funny.
Penny Arcade by Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins because it's the most insane thing ever.
EDITED WITH THE WHY
CarbonatedWeasel:
I'd have to say my top 5 favorites would be:
1) Penny Arcade. Its the first webcomic I ever started reading and its about video games so I get a lot of the jokes. And its usually very clever and smart.
2) Questionable Content. This would probably be my favorite if I actually was "in" on the indie music jokes. Too bad all of the webcomics (21deadmonkeys) based on ska dont have compelling story lines, memorable characters and excellent (and ever developing) art style and sentient robots. The progression of the art is amazing, you would swear its not even the same person doing it. I like it so much because I actually found myself relating to the characters and caring about them a little. Much like a good movie.
3) Scary Go Round. Its extremely witty, crazy, and you never can quite guess what is gonna happen next. Its insane really. It has more characters than legal and the art style with illustrator is my favorite ever. Its been okay since he started using hand drawn stuff again but I prefer illustrator. Nonetheless it is amazing. Oh, and british!
4) Joe and Monkey. Its weird how sometimes the strip wont ever really had a definate punchline but it is still really funny. Some of the most random things I have ever seen has come out of this gem of a webcomic. How can you compete with the line, "I swear to God monkey, I'll punch you in the face with an airplane"? Ya cant.
5) Nothing Nice to Say. Its punx, quite clearly and I love that about it. Music jokes that I actually get for the most part. Sometimes its even to punk for me to get. But thats alright. I like to see how the artstyle progressed over time from the beginning to present day.
So there you go, If you managed to get through my unintelligible rambling I applaud you. Give yourself a nice big pat on the back. You've earned it, Champ.
