Mike's Webcomic's Shit-straveganza!

In the past decade, something amazing has happened on the internet. No, I'm not talking about blogs, Myspace, Facebook, or free porn. I'm talking about webcomics. These little jewels are separate from comic books and newspaper comics.

There are a ton of different types of Webcomics. The most common are gaming comics, like Penny-Arcade ,which averages 55 million pageviews a month, and PVP which really isn't too much of a gaming comic anymore, but is still fun. There are also roughly twenty-seven quadrillion knock offs of Penny-Arcade, half of which have been drawn by yours truly.

Another type is the quirky, romantic nerd comedy comics. The most well known of these is the immensely popular Questionable Content which is also good for music buffs. Another nerdy sometimes romance comic is XKCD which is perhaps the most indecipherable to the layperson comic I read.

An additional genre is the fantasy comic. The most popular of these is The Order of the Stick, which shares a site with Erfworld. Order of the Stick is good, but is updated only sporadically. Looking for Group is another comic I really enjoy in this group.

There are other comics, ones that are just funny without unifying genre. Two of my favorites there are Star Slip Crisis and Indexed. Both are hilarious and don't fit the other groups.
