Your favorite comics strip
 
God I hope I am not the only one here who's into comics!

I have two favs...

Beau Peep
And of course Peanuts

What are yours?

Grondar 04-21-2003 05:50 AM

I love(d) Calvin and Hobbes.

My all time favorite comic book, and I used to always anticipate the new book releases.

I also used to read Archie, but not to the extent that I read Calvin and Hobbes.

frenik 04-21-2003 05:54 AM

Calvin and Hobbes was great, Far Side was always good. Dilbert is funny occasionally. There are a few more in the paper now that I always read but I can't remember their names.

I don't think it's been translated from swedish, if it hasn't it's a reason to learn swedish.

New Ones:

Warning: This is the most offensive comic EVER. But it's incredibly funny, if you can get over that.

zf0enix 04-21-2003 07:45 AM

*sounding unoriginal*

Dilbert
Far Side
Non Sequitur

sapiens 04-21-2003 08:22 AM

Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes were probably my favorite. I'm neutral about most comments, but I can't stand B.C.

degrawj 04-21-2003 08:42 AM

Get Fuzzy is by far my most favourite. after that would be Fox Trot.

Junchbailey 04-21-2003 11:22 AM

Calvin and Hobbes was my all time favorite. Another comic I like isRed Meat.

World's King 04-21-2003 11:24 AM

Get Fuzzy.

wraithhibn 04-21-2003 11:29 AM

Calvin and Hobbes for the print variety
Web comics: Sexy Losers and Sinfest.net

snowy 04-21-2003 11:43 AM

I read, every day: For Better Or For Worse, Get Fuzzy, Luann, Grand Avenue, FoxTrot and Stone Soup. Occasionally I read Baldo en espanol and attempt to translate it. :) Gotta love the comics. Get Fuzzy and FBOFW are prolly my two faves.

zmbabwe 04-21-2003 12:13 PM

zits is great, rose is rose sucks

SecretMethod70 04-21-2003 02:35 PM

Mainly Dilbert and Big Nate (I don't know what papers it's in, but it's in the one I read :)) but I also like Born Loser sometimes as well as the standards such as Calvin and Hobbes, etc.

gov135 04-21-2003 03:09 PM

Doonesbury (whats left of it)
and
Dilbert

greytone 04-21-2003 03:12 PM

I don't read them much anymore, but my all time favorites were Bloom County and Calvin and Hobbes. Both of those had characters that came alive for me.

MovieNut 04-21-2003 03:13 PM

yada
 
dilbert, userfriendly (www.userfriendly.org), sometimes pc & pixel, occasionally garfield

There are a couple classics, Peanuts among them. Shultz was brilliant.

thanks to you all, I just discovered non-sequitur!

I miss Calvin & Hobbes, Bloom County, and the Far Side miserably. Somehow they made life that much sweeter.

HamiC 04-21-2003 03:19 PM

Still missing Bloom County....but learning to like The Boondocks. Both geared towards parents more than kids.

a1t3r3g0 04-21-2003 03:48 PM

For print - nothing beats Zits.
For online - nothing beats Something Positive

IMHO

meembo 04-21-2003 03:50 PM

Calvin and Hobbs -- untouched

Boondocks
For Better or Worse (?!?)

MexicanOnABike 04-21-2003 04:02 PM

calvin... far side... dilbert... thats it.

WildZero 04-21-2003 04:17 PM

Check out http://www.mycomicspage.com .
They're reprinting the whole Bloom County strip, pushing out a week every two days...not bad for $10/year (Even if they haven't started posting the Sunday strips yet).

rockogre 04-21-2003 05:41 PM

Dilbert, because I KNOW that we work for the same company.

Macheath 04-21-2003 05:47 PM

Red Meat and This Modern World on the net.

I haven't paid much attention to print comics since they stopped making new Far Side's.

CrazyBulgarian 04-21-2003 05:58 PM

Asterix....

BTW... does anyone know where i can download asterix comics in PDF format... any language (german, french, english......Bulgarian :) )

ratbastid 04-21-2003 06:04 PM

I wrote me a little perl script that I call from .login. It sucks down a number of comics, drops them in a directory, and runs ee on them, displaying them in a neat, easy to browse list.

My list currently contaings:

Megatokyo
Dilbert
Foxtrot
Penny Arcade
userfriendly
Red Meat

SysteMatiC 04-21-2003 06:13 PM

Get Fuzzy
Dilbert
calvin & Hobbes

forseti-6 04-21-2003 06:15 PM

I read foxtrot every day. Also try to read Ziggy and Garfield daily.

Sticky 04-21-2003 06:19 PM

Farside.

There is nothing like Gary Larson.

The cominc that comes to mind is a dog siting in the backseat of his owners car with his head out the window as his owner pulls out backwards down the driveway.
The dog yell triumphantly and condecendingly to his friend Rex the dog. "Ha ah Rex, guess what, I'm goign to the vet's to get tutored"

krazykemist 04-21-2003 11:01 PM

www.reallifecomics.com
I think it's my favorite because it's like hes writing about me and my friends. It's a little too creepy realistic at times though.

deepinjello 04-22-2003 01:01 AM

Boondocks and Get Fuzzy and some from my school newspaper, mainly Death and Taxes.

Casey 04-22-2003 02:25 AM

Can't believe no one's mentioned 'Monty'. It's the best that our local paper has to offer. I also like For Better or For Worse since I've been following it for many years.

zizdog69 04-22-2003 02:43 AM

I'm a big Clavin and Hobbes fan as well. I also like Mother Goose and Grim, funny shit that guy comes up with!

Anyone here read some Mr. Wiggle's Rehab?
Mr. Wiggles
Jump back to the begining and read some of the early ones. WARNING - They are offensive!!

I just love Elftor, I wonder how long it will last until some christian/patriot loony decides to take matters into thier own hands and kill the guy who makes it.

troit 04-23-2003 05:42 AM

Hands down -- No contest here -- My alter ego:

calvin (and hobbes)

On TFP v.3 we discussed this a bit but to refresh -- I have a complete Calvin and Hobbes collection -- everything that was ever pubished. Obviously I was a bit disappointed when Watterson decided it was time to call it quits....This gives me an idea...

Click below for your daily Calvin and Hobbes fix:

ARTelevision 04-23-2003 06:11 AM

that would be dilbert

"get your war on" is pretty good too

Daval 04-23-2003 06:41 AM

Calvin & Hobbes was my all time favourite.

Loup 04-23-2003 08:17 AM

Calvin and Hobbes, Pooch Café, and my all time childhood fav: Garfield

billege 04-23-2003 08:53 AM

Get Fuzzy

and

The Boondocks.

Defineately two of the finest comics out there.

cdwonderful 04-23-2003 09:38 AM

farside, by far on my side

JoeyB 04-23-2003 09:42 AM

Calvin and Hobbes and Far Side are two of the all-time greats. Both creators stepped aside long before they outstayed their welcome.

Currently, Get Fuzzy and The Boondocks are two very funny strips.

Any comic can make you laugh, but it takes a classic to make you think at the same time.

Unless, it's Family Circus. Those kids are just wacky.

uh...never mind.

blindawg 04-23-2003 10:15 AM

Calvin and hobbs are stillmy all time favorte.. That I have my Dilbert day calendar on my desk.. And I allow no one to browse ahead.. because then.. what willyou read tomorrow?

Ratman 04-24-2003 05:20 AM

C n' H. Far side. Doonesbury. Dilbert.

Binder 04-24-2003 06:06 AM

bloom county was the best. dilbert is now the only comic i read on sunday.

etla 04-24-2003 06:30 AM

C&H are my all time favourites.

Presently Schlock Mercenary and User Friendly are the ones I read everyday

hrdwareguy 04-24-2003 07:29 AM

UFie
 
The only one I keep up with is User Friendly

User Friendly

mykockle 04-24-2003 08:47 AM

i don't really read any of the print strips anymore... just online stuff... i really like penny-arcade.com, goats.com, dieselsweeties.com and wigu.com

Mael 04-24-2003 02:36 PM

i don't really read print strips anymore, but my fav. online ones (some already mentioned) are...

http://www.reallifecomics.com
http://www.sinfest.net
http://www.somethingpositive.net
these three are really funny...

http://www.everythingjake.com
just a good story, got some action and superpower stuff and whatnot going on in it...

http://www.choppingblock.org
a 1-paneler about a serial killer... freakin' hilarious.

other good ones are ghastly's ghastly comic (http://ghastly.keenspace.com)(i think), it's a bit out there, but also really funny.

Expoitation Now was great... too bad it's over...
http://www.expoitationnow.com

and i don't know if anyone remembers "the thin h line", great strip, too bad it's not on the web anymore. :(

platypus 04-25-2003 11:33 AM

Bloom County, Calvin & Hobbes

Sent my 10 bucks to http://www.mycomicspage.com and get it in my morning email.

quadro2000 10-20-2003 12:48 PM

Thought I'd revive this one.

Every day over lunch I check out the comic selection at washingtonpost.com and read the following:

For Better Or For Worse
Adam (although I don't know why, it's usually not funny)
Baby Blues
Boondocks
Stone Soup
Zits

My favorites are Zits and For Better Or For Worse. I also think Pickles is pretty funny but as it's not one of the direct Washington Post selections, I forget to read it.

GakFace 10-20-2003 01:16 PM

Calvin & Hobbes
Get Fuzzy
Crankshaft -- A bus driver that loves to raise hell, who can't love that :D
heh.. he once was a penny short on his paper bill, so he wrote a check out for ONE CENT! haHA! :)


As for online? ;)

Sinfest
SexyLosers
8-Bit Theater
Knights of the Dinner Table
Penny Arcade
oh and we can't forget...
BOB & George. :)

Does anyone know of a good TMNT comic?

eple 10-20-2003 01:17 PM

Rocky seconed. The best cartoon ever.

numberfive 10-20-2003 01:41 PM

Pooch Cafe, Zits, Non Sequiter.

Peryn 10-20-2003 02:09 PM

calvin and Hobbes is by far the best comic ever written. Period.

Other than that i read Pooch Cafe (www.poochcafe.com) as one extremely funny cartoon...i could swear he spy's on my dog...

Also Fox Trot.

Dilber used to be funny, but i rarely find it amusing these days, let alone humerous.

Garfield always has and always been terrible, only the worst cartoon of all time = Cathy Eergg.....i hope that fat cow just up and dies some day...

bermuDa 10-20-2003 02:42 PM

Starting with my all time favorite:
Calvin and Hobbes
Garfield
Red Meat
Dilbert
Penny Arcade
Non Sequitor
Far Side
Bloom County

obelix 10-20-2003 03:04 PM

calvin & hobbes, farside, zits

pocon1 10-20-2003 05:12 PM

I read all of the comics in the washington post except for apt 3g, cathy, and two others. But I do read Mary Worth, of all things. But my current fav is Boondocks, when star Wars guy attacked George Lucas a couple of years ago, that was really funny. He does not pull any punches in his lampooning. Zits is ok, non, sequiter, and bloom county is coming back. I am waiting for the next Billy and the Boingers album. ACKK! THPPTHH!
"Middle of the road, man it stank,

mattevil 10-20-2003 05:25 PM

far side is my fave. it made me curious as hell what it all meant when i read them at age 4 though(amoeba jokes etc.)
as for second fave does strongbad count?

HeAtHeN 10-20-2003 05:34 PM

My fave is a computer comic:

Ctrl-Alt-Del

Read the older ones.... then keep reading. Its WAY better than Penny Arcade :D

djtestudo 10-20-2003 06:53 PM

I loved C&H and The Far Side while they lasted, and love Dilbert now.

My real favorite is called 8 O'Clock Classes. The writing is done by my old neighbor from Maryland. Let the guys there know if you like it.

After that, its Dilbert, Far Side, Hellboy and Judge Dredd

Church 10-21-2003 01:28 PM

Penny Arcade and Calvin and Hobbes handsdown! I'm sorry, but PA makes me laugh so hard that I can't even imagine anything else being funnier.

mingusfingers 10-21-2003 02:04 PM

Get fuzzy, and Dilbert.

dy156 10-21-2003 02:20 PM
