Question 2

Dear C.N.G.P,

I'm a big fan of webcomics (sooo happy to see Beaver & Steve on your site!). Over the last 5 years, I've amassed more than 100 in a special bookmarks-folder. 80% of which I check every day, usually starting while enjoying my cup of tea before heading to work. So,yeah, I'm deeply in love with the artform.

Now my question is: are any of you into webcomics and if so, which ones do you consider to be the most awesome? And what makes them appealing to you?In quiet anticipation to your answers, I remain,

Rembrand Le Compte

My all time favorite webcomic is Perry Bible Fellowship: pbfcomics They're fucking hilarious.

Other honorable mentions include Penny-Arcade also spamusement where cartoons are drawn from the subject lines of spam emails. I know it doesn't sound that funny but it is, trust me.

NESSA

I don't read any web comics.

LAUREN

I have been reading Achewood recently: Achewood

I am making attempts to read more, I swear!

I waste me a fair amount of time on webcomics. I love it as an art form. I love blogs though too so who would listen to me? I was thinking about starting my own comic, then I won the Powers contest. Now I am all about questions and answers these days. I want to be the new dirty, nerdy Dear Abby.

I am a big fan of all the work done by Natalie Dee and her husband Drew of Toothpaste for Dinner I think I love Natalie Dee because she reminds me of myself. Her comics tend to mirror my thoughts. Drew is more solid comedy. I enjoy the comic they do together quite a bit: Married to the Sea

I love xkcd It is a very nerdcentric comic.

I read explosm but I don't always love it. I also read Penny-Arcade and Achewood like the previous ladies said. I love pbfcomics and beaverandsteve Beaver and Steve gives me good smiles that I need in my life.

I read lots of webcomics people I know make too. My friend Matt is the creator of Zed Reckoning Zombie Grotto

I started reading Ryan Dow's Introspective Comics after he wrote to me. Same goes for Daniel Olson's bewildered kid I will probably start reading Rembrand's comic now too: Make it Count

My friend Henry has a web comic that is much funnier if you have ever worked in home shopping. Chess with Birds His comic is often only funny to him which is kind of what he was going for when he started it. I am in it sometimes. He is my at work "boyfriend" so we see each other quite a bit.

There are so many I stop by and visit. I could list forever...ok only two more:

soapythechicken and catandgirl
