As of late, these have been my passion. What have all of you been reading?
Daily, I check (some being daily updates, others just updating randomly, so I try to catch them):
-Order of the Stick: Best webcomic out there, overall.
-Another Gaming Comic: (agc.deskslave.org) Horrible, horrible art at first, but the best writing I've ever seen. They get you concerned over the characters played BY characters. That's somethin'.
-Erfworld: Fun little strip. Lots of weird little meme references mixed into a Tactic game framework. Also, best art I've seen in a webcomic, bar only Girl Genius.
-Irregular Webcomic: Fun, fun, fun. Great puns, solid humor. Pretty light fare, but amusing.
At Each Update, I check:
-Shortpacked: Fun strip, though the author has pacing issues. Right when we're at a point building up to a cliffhanger sort of situation, he cuts to filler. Otherwise, a charming comic with a lot of interesting stuff going on.
-Darths and Droids: Having followed DM of the Rings since halfway through, it's only natural to follow this. Not to mention that Darths and Droids, while tamer, is a much sleeker and better written production.
Check at Random:
-VGcats: Not funny any more, but the Pokemon subcomic is good enough to make up for it. Really, the author should just drop VGcats for a while and come back to it after doing a month or two of Super Effective.
-Goblins: Amusing writing, great action, pretty fun. Has some issues, but it's FINALLY ending the Brassmoon arc after like three years, sooo...
-XKCD: I dunno why, but unlike Irregular, I check this gag-based strip about once a month and just read it all in a go.
-Full Frontal Nerdity/Backwards Compatible/Ding: Check 'em all at once. Saves time. FFN is kinda blah, Backwards is pretty good, and Ding is the best, but by far the rarest.
-Joe Loves Crappy Movies: The closest to my style of humor, I enjoy it immensely along with the reviews. My way of keeping up with Hollywood.
Mourning:
-Chainmail Bikini: Not as good as DM of the Rings, but great art style and a fun plot. Got REALLY weak at the end, and then died, and now is gone.
-RPGWorld: Pacing sucked, but the characters were lovable and fun. Author was a tremendous douche and killed it right before the climax. (Shoulda wrote for another ten pages. I'd rather see the cast die horribly than the comic die horribly.)
-Stick Exodus: The best Webcomic on our site from a humor perspective, at least from those that had a run. Clicker and I miss it immensely.
Sigh:
-Pokemon X: Ehhh... Very dull, and the talking Mightyena does it no favors. Really, bog-standard webcomic only notable for decent spritework.
-8-Bit Theater: Was funny for the first 100 strips or so, then got overly dense and hard to process. Not worth the effort of following.
-Super Robot Taisen Authors: Ewww. Ewwww... EW. Mixed sprites, authors that spell much worse than Kaz at his worst and have NO talent, incredible cliches... I couldn't pen a worse one if I tried. Seriously.
Read 'em, and weep:
superrobotwarsauthors.smackjeeves.com/comics/429108/the-four-types/
Also note: Main reason I've considered doing my SRT fic as a comic instead of a story or game is just to wipe the stench of this thing from the internet.
So, what about all of you? What do you guys read?
