Earlier this week I shared with you recommendations of webcomics that the panel at RavenCon recommended, which were, for the most part, new to me. Here is my current list of must-reads:
- Alien Loves Predator – using action figures from the Alien and Predator movies, this comic tells the story of two guys who are friends and roommates in modern-day NYC
- DAR: A Super Girly Top Secret Comic Diary – autobiographical, irreverant, and geeky
- The Devil’s Panties – autobiographical, irreverant, and geeky — and frequently located at science fiction & fantasy conventions
- Girls With Slingshots – “two girls, a bar, and a talking cactus”
- My Life In A Cube – office humor, often drawn on used office materials or other found objects
- Questionable Content – indie rock, coffee, hipsters, and complicated relationships — also, wicked funny
- Sheldon – about a young, geeky genious living with his grandfather, a talking duck with an adopted lizard, and a pug — I don’t know what it is about the writing, but it cracks me up every time
- Shelf Check – social commentary and public library worklife
- Unshelved – written by a librarian, drawn by a cartoonist
- User Friendly – poorly drawn, but often rather amusing glimpses of the trials and tribulations of working at a small ISP
- Wondermark – historical line drawings remixed with a healthy dose of humor and pacing
- xkcd – “a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language”
