Web comics!

[KatieHal]

So I start my morning off reading web comics. How about you guys? What are you reading?

Here's my list (yeah it's kinda long, I know!):
Questionable Content
Shadowgirls
Order of the Stick
Girl Genius
The Zombie Hunters
Real Life Comics
XKCD
The Phoenix Requiem

And I used to read Daisy Owl, but it hasn't been updated in a long time. Still, the backlog is great reading.

Let's hear about yours! I'll offer further thoughts on my list later.

Questionable Content

Wow...that's not awkward at all. Permalink for posterity.
The only one I keep up with is Ctrl-Alt-Del, but occasionally I read XKCD as well.

[KatieHal]

Hehe, yeah, QC is FULL of awkward stuff! But it's hilarious and par for the course at this point

[dark-daventry]

I never actually read web comics... Perhaps I should start...

[tessspoon]

Only one I read is Looking for Group. Though Patrick Rothfuss wrote a whole blog about how he likes Girl Genius as well, been meaning to check that out

[Delling]

Girl Genius
XKCD
The Phoenix Requiem
Gunnkrigg Court*
EE comics
Looking for Group
Godseeker
Skin Deep
Dreamland Chronicles

highly irregular update schedule:
White Noise
Erfworld

very political, but available in o so many languages:
Zahra's Paradise**

*purposefully linked to the start of the archives b/c some really cool/weird stuff is going on in the current chapter
**some segments might be considered NSFW

Someone else who reads Phoenix Requiem! Though I'm surprised--you read Erfworld but not Order of the Stick, Delling? I'm surprised b/c Erfworld started on the same site (although isn't by the same person).

Shadowgirls has the best tagline, IMO: "It's HP Lovecraft meets Gilmore Girls!" And that is so very accurate.

I read a lot of serial stories over one-shot comics, most of mine fall into that category--QC, Girl genius, Phoenix Requiem, Shadowgirls, Daisy Owl was sort of one, Zombie Hunters, OotS...

I use to read alot but I'm way behind now.

No point re linking Order of the stick. I also use to read

Dominic Deegan Oracle for hire
Your Wings are mine (contains shounen-ai or boy love)
Art school Sub Rosa
Candi Comics
Lackadaisy Cats

Uh- I've forgotten the title of most of them. I rread mostly physical copies. I don't like reading online. Most I follow via Deviant art if I do T.T There's a few others I read, but I'll wait till I get back to Auckland to my desktop computer. My laptop doesn't have the links.

I read:

Penny Arcade
VGCats and Super Effective
Kawaii Not
Looking For Group
Least I Could Do
Gutters
XKCD

I used to read Ctrl+Alt+Del, but the whole thing with going through the [spoiler]miscarriage and then just jumping back into comedy[/spoiler] really put me off.  I remember him posting something along the lines of, "If you're not happy with it, then don't read it," so I stopped.

Hmm. I dunno, I thought he handled it rather well. There were a few comics where it was serious for a while, then there was a little light-hearted humor and some reconciliatory ones before getting completely right back into everything. And I've always had something of a mental separation between the mood of the story-driven comics and the plotless ones, so that didn't affect me either. But to each his own, I suppose.

This guy did a rather good comic called 8-Bit Theater, which goes through the plot of Final Fantasy.  I haven't read his other comics yet.

[Delling]

*read 8-bit Theatre* One of the best

*is currently reading (when it'll update ) How I Killed Your Master*

[KatieHal]

I used to read 8 Bit Theatre, but it just got way too off-track and meandering for my tastes.

[Enchantermon]

If you played and enjoyed Half-Life 2, then you should definitely check out Concerned; a Half-Life 2 webcomic featuring the adventures of Gordon Frohman made entirely with Garry's Mod. It's wonderfully hilarious, especially if you're a fan of the game.
A small warning, though: it does contain spoilers for Half-Life 2, so if you haven't played it and are planning on it (which you should be ), you shouldn't read it yet. Besides the spoilers, you also won't understand some of the jokes if you haven't played the game.

I pretty much stick with Order of the Stick and Looking for Group, although LFG has lost a good deal of what I used to like about it. Ridiculous humor without being too overbearing and while carrying on a serious plot. They seem to have abandoned that for ridiculously humorous subplots that they occasionally reel in to have something to do with the serious plot.

Still.... I want to see where they go with the things they've set up!

I used to read 8 Bit Theatre, but it just got way too off-track and meandering for my tastes.

Yeah, he started to pull in current events, etc. such as using King Steve for commentary on Bush. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it detracted from the sense of plot and purpose to the story. However, it was ALWAYS meandering (e.g.- the rounds of survivor WAAAAAAY back at the beginning... took forever *usually gets trapped in them when looking for certain Black Mage quotes* (Black Mage is ever so quotable.), not to mention Evil Princess Sara and the Dark Warriors -.- (though that did actually go somewhere and contribute something... eventually))

(mouse over for some deliciously quotable quotes
[spoiler]
White Mage: Okay, an orphanage is on fire. What do you do?"
Black Mage:Use Fire3 to torch the building and then pick off any survivors with Bolt2 set to wide dispersal.

I am the Black Mage. I cast the spells that makes the peoples fall down.

Apparently the answer to "How many 5tth (sic) level spells can an experienced wizard cast?" is not "More than enough to destroy you all and your families."

White Mage: Come on now, guys. Let's settle this like adults.
...
Black Mage: Blast a highly populated area into ashes, blame it on Fighter, and run like hell?
