I've got some comics you should be reading.
Shortpacked! I started reading because this comic about Frank Miller tickled my weird funny bone. I then read all the back issues, but I really, really liked the later storyline that starts here.

Narbonic is now free. You should all be reading it. I mean it. Mad science, cultural references, good art, the only tragedy is that it is ending soon.

Despite its name Get Medieval on livejournal is a sort of science fiction comic. The first comic starts with our characters fleeing an interstellar mob. Fun! Go read it. Wacky fun starts as soon as they land on a barbaric little backwater planet no one has ever heard of. It is quality from day one so I won't have to link to the comic where everything finally clicks and works. But you should also check out her temporarily on hiatus retelling of The Prince and the Pauper.

I also like Questionable Content. The art gets way better and here is a random example of the humor I love from it. An old joke made fun with a Dune ref!

Now for something animated.
Tim Curry performs 12 Books in 120 Seconds. A Lemony Snicket Flash Animation promoting the fact that the last book, #13, is coming out soon. And doing a really good job of it.

And the very not worksafe Sugar Baby Love. A fun public safety message.

Girl Genius (http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/) is fantastic stuff.
Irregular Webcomic (http://www.irregularwebcomic.net/) isn't irregular at all, but is very funny.
Gunnerkrigg Court (http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/index2.php) is also fantastic.

I've read some girl genius in comic form. I didn't know it was online. I actually knew/know David Morgan-Mar a bit from my Pyramid days. Gunnerkrigg Court was fun.

Yeah, they're republishing Girl Genius on the web at the same time that they're moving the storyline forward, three pages every week.

I keep forgetting you were on Pyramid these days - I don't hang out there myself any more either.
