    As of recently I've discovered the joy that is the webcomic, although I've only discovered two good ones I'm now following them regularly.

    These are my favorite webcomics:

    Megatokyo

    Something Positive

    So what webcomics are some of you guy's reading if any at all?

    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    Not exactly a comic with a storyline, but alot of absurd cartoon jokes.

    Ctrl Alt Del - so funny, but you'll have to read a few comics back to get the current storyline (to the 23rd of April - go to the archives)

    My favourite webcomic currently is, and will likely remain, the Order of the Stick. In a world based on Dungeons and Dragons, you get an interesting plot and compelling characters. You do not necessarily need to be an expert of the game; a basic knowledge is enough, and even then the humour is not solely based on D&D jokes, far from it.

    I like Kevin & Kell too, I would list it as my second favourite. Updates everyday.

    www.achewood.com

    It's a absurd and surreal comic or as the comic titles itself :"A cartoon of modern life as lived by a retarded otter, an alcoholic tiger, and two bears."
    It takes a few strips to get into, but the writer is a genius and the comic surpasses most other webcomics by creativity and humor.

    Seconding Order of the Stick!

    Also Darths & Droids:

    Irregular Webcomic I check from time to time as well:

    And the DFC has to get an honorable mention, although it's in a slightly different category.

    I'm seconding Penny Arcade and xkcd. Both are absolutely hilarious.

    Have you just been dumped?

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    The only one I read regularily is Dr. Mcninja, perhaps solely for the absurdity of it.

    Cool store, bro! I want some ham.
    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    "No one said it was gonna be easy! If it was, everyone would do it..that's who you know who really wants it."

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Order of the Stick is very good.

    Also,

    http://www.fireball20xl.com

    has a ton of console-game related comics. Even if you don't like the newer ones there are archives full of old, finished webcomics.

    Penny Arcade

    Amazing comic. I used to make fun of my wife for reading it until I tried a couple of strips and ended up reading something like 6 years worth in one go :)
