Comedy

Ongoing:

  • +++ Buni (one update a week) is about a hopelessly optimistic loser bunny named Buni. Its art style and black humor is very similar to that of The Perry Bible Fellowship.
  • +++ Calamities of Nature (three updates a week) is a comedy comic strip which heavily relies on social commentary as a source of humor. Unfortunately, it sometimes suffers from the “talking heads” syndrome, which makes the quality of the strips very dependent on the funniness of the punchline.
  • +++ Count your Sheep (irregular updates) is a cute comic strip about a small girl, her mother and their best friend, the imaginary sheep Ship.
  • +++ Edmund Finney’s Quest to Find the Meaning of Life (two updates a week) is currently the best comic strip on the web! On his trip around the world, the adventurer Edmund makes extremely funny encounters with quirky travellers and natives.
  • +++ Life Ain’t no Pony Farm (two updates a week) is a journal-style comic strip by the German artist Sarah Burrini, featuring herself and a bunch of talking animals as her roommates.
  • +++ Luke Surl (three updates a week): Cartoons in the tradition of The Far Side with intelligent jokes outside the box, but the artwork needs improving…
  • +++ Mal and Chad (five updates a week) is a newspaper-style comic strip about the boy Mal and his talking dog Chad. When Mal is not busy wooing the love of his life, Megan, he is inventing teleporters and practicing for the school play. Mal and Chad is a very light-hearted comic that is even suitable for young children.
  • +++ NOTFUNNY Cartoons (irregular updates): Very funny, very bizarre cartoons
  • +++ Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal (seven updates a week): A cynical look at the human psyche, may contain scientists.
  • +++ Whubble (one update a week) is a funny workplace comic strip following this premise: What if all the characters are cats (except for one dog and one pig) and behave even more bizarre than the Dilbert crew?
  • +++ XKCD (three updates a week): The oh-so popular webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language. Some of the jokes are extremely funny, but the stickfigure artwork is rarely fun to look at.

Completed / On hiatus:

  • +++ Alice! is a newspaper-style comic strip which very much feels like Calvin and Hobbes (though never reaching its quality). Alice! follows the wacky adventures of the teenage girl Alice, who shares Calvin’s vivid imagination, and her friend Dot, who plays the role of the “straight girl”.
  • +++ Bob-Rz’s DeviantArt gallery features several very clever cartoons dealing with the bitter aspects of love, seen from a male perspective. There are also lots of other cartoons which are just plain silly, many of them with rather suggestive gags.
  • +++ Daisy Owl features the girl Daisy, her little brother Cooper, their adoptive father Benjamin Owl (an owl) and Mr. Owl’s friend Steve Brown (a bear). There are several real gems in the archive, but many strips are very weird, which often results in them being either a hit or a miss.
  • +++ Duxter is certainly among the most hilarious comic strips ever written by a teenager. The titular character Duxter is a duck with a slightly severely skewed moral compass who’s living together with two equally strange roommates.
  • +++ Gill: The main character Gill of this very well-drawn comic strip is an eight year old boy who has preserved his optimism despite living in less than ideal circumstances. Often funny, but sometimes also sad.
  • +++ Ozy and Millie: Long-running comic strip in the style of Calvin and Hobbes featuring the serene young fox Ozy and his hyperactive best friend Millie
  • +++ The Perry Bible Fellowship: Cynical cartoons with a nice surrealistic touch
  • +++ Truck Bearing Kibble: Well drawn and funny cartoons very similar to The Perry Bible Fellowship

Story

Ongoing:

  • +++ Commander Kitty (one update a week) tells the humorous story of a feline space ranger and his crew on a dangerous mission. A lot of thought went into the world and character design and the comic manages to be exciting and still deliver a joke on nearly every page.
  • +++ Digger (two updates a week): The adventures of the brave Wombat Digger in a strange land, presented in unique black and white artwork.
  • Evil Diva (three updates a week): Powree’s favorite active webcomic
  • +++ Gunnerkrigg Court (three updates a week) is a fantasy comic with sci-fi elements subdivided into more or less self-contained chapters. They tell the mysterious story of the young girl Antimony “Annie” Carver and her best friend Katerina “Kat” Donlan who attend the eponymous school as they get involved in the political intrigues between Gunnerkrigg Court and the mythical creatures of Gillitie Wood, a forest near the school.
  • +++ Lackadaisy (irregular updates)
  • +++ Questionable Content (five updates a week) …
  • +++ Red’s Planet (irregular updates)
  • Slightly Damned (one update a week): Our editor Sarah is very involved in the community of this webcomic, so you might want to check it out, too.
  • Union of Heroes (three updates a week) is a slice-of-life photonovel which takes place in the Ruhr Area of Germany in an alternative universe in which superheroes are common. Despite this description, the comic does not suck ;-) but is an interesting read.

Completed / On hiatus:

  • +++ One Swoop Fell is about the adventures of the friendly bear Topo and his new friend, the aviatically challenged bird Swoop. The cast of this marvellously drawn comic also includes the cutest squirrel girl ever put on paper a computer screen.
