Since Beladonna already started a thread about newspaper comics, and I think online comics would be off-topic, I thought I'd start a companion thread. Here are some of my favorites:
- Angst Technology A less-known must-have for geeks, about a crazy game-software company with a real web-monkey, IT ninjas, etc. Definitely my favorite online or off.
- 9 Chickweed Lane Sort of generic "slice of life" stuff, but often with that visual originality I look for.
- Doctor Fun One of the oldest online comics; Far Side style, single panel (usually).
- Freefall Human-like aliens and robots, just generically well done.
- Kevin & Kell Animals this time, but technically savvy ones; a very well developed and original milieu.
- Loose Parts Another one of the better Gary Larson wannabes.
- off the mark Ditto (hey, I'm a sucker for that stuff).
- Sinfest God and Satan appear frequently, along with a more down-to-earth regular cast - a little sexy, lots of pop culture.
- The 5th Wave Another geek must-have; weekly, single-panel, Dilbert-ish.
Lastly, here's a post on my website with some of my personal favorite examples from some of the above.
