FreakAngels: Picking your battles

What would you do if every day was spent in a struggle for survival against the very people who should be keeping you safe?  What would be going through your mind if your own government was relentlessly pursuing you simply because of what you were, of what you might do.  And what would you do [...]

Dead Winter: Apocalyptic table waiting

Zombies.  What is even up with those guys?  From mutated viruses diabolically engineered by pointlessly evil companies to space radiation from space, it seems like the dead are just looking for any excuse to rise out of their shallow graves to gnaw on the living.  Sometimes their journey is given a reason, other times not [...]

Fetch the Bee: Eric’s half-brother, probably

There are juvenile comics that make crude jokes about occurrences in the bathroom and things that should only occur in the bathroom but are apparently funnier when they occur elsewhere. Then there are juvenile comics whose squeaky clean humor is generally funniest to children under the age of 10. Fetch the Bee falls into the [...]

Erfworld is all about the little things

Have you read the Rooster Teeth comic from the creators of RVB? Oh, well then you can skip a couple of paragraphs. For the fortunate [...]

Post-Nuke: Proof that radiation poisioning is a slow killer

One of the first webcomics with a storyline that I began reading with any kind of consistency was a little comic called Post-Nuke. As the title implies its one of the many post-apocalyptic stories about a man and his dog fighting a losing battle against the final destruction of civilization. It’s a very grim comic [...]

Order of the Stick: look it up in the monster manual

Order of the Stick may throw some readers off who are reluctant to do anything associated with Dungeons and Dragons, but these people are dumb. Order of the Stick is the most charming, in depth and epic stick figure webcomic you can read, hands down, chronicling the adventures of a small, dysfunctional party as they try to save their fantasy setting world without killing themselves.

Sluggy Freelance, free time required

With over a decade of history under its belt and plot elements that can take over five years to resolve, Sluggy Freelance isn’t a comic you should start reading if you don’t have a lot of time.
