Web comics! What are your favorites?

I used to follow Sluggy Freelance religiously....but then I had kids and it got too hard to keep up with the plot twists. But the first one still cracks me up:

Right now I'm reading Eerie Cuties, Paranormal Mystery Squad, Aoi House, Magick Chicks and Menage a 3. The last one is my favorite.

There used to be a cartoon magazine here during communism. It was called Daga (rainbow). There were a myriad of cartoon series inside on various topics, from history to science to geography to just funny cartoons.

Daga is the magazine that opened my eyes for many things. It's where I saw the stories of Tolkien for the first time, it's where I heard about the great geographic discoveries, about the history of my country, etc. And in a very funny way! But my fave among all cartoon series was about Darko, this guy with the big hat. He's a very nice guy but he always gets into some kind of trouble. Fortunately, he has this special hat. Various lids open in the hat and some fancy gadgets pop out from there. Like scissors, or a calculator, or a stink bomb, etc.

XKCD () and Wondermark (http://wondermark.com/) are the only two comics that I really follow on a day to day basis now.

Though back in the day I was a huge Calvin & Hobbes fan.

I'm friends with the SMBC guy (http://www.smbc-comics.com/"), but web comics are so obvious at work. So I only catch up every month or so.

This is strip #1. The current ones have evolved a bit, artistically speaking:

I've been using Rule 37 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlock_Mercenary#The_Seventy_Maxims_of_Maximally_Effective_Mercenaries) for a sig line, for years.

Sluggy is good. It's probably best though that you gave it up, it's gotten more and more complex and hard to follow lately with dimensional travel and all that going on, it's not quite as simple as it was those first couple years.

I read a ton of comics, probably more than I have time to. Some of the ones I read are: Penny Arcade, Sinfest, xkcd, PvP, Sam and Fuzzy, Questionable Content and Something Positive.

DAILY QUOTE:
"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
