Best comic strips

[Laser]

I very much like Calvin & Hobbes, and Cul-de-Sac, and ...

[Findecanor]

Beside Calvin & Hobbes I also used to enjoy Bloom Country back in the day.

And for something completely different: A web-comic that I love and can recommend is Gunnerkrigg Court. It is a magical fantasy/sci-fi story that has been going on for years so you would have to spend hours to catch up to where it is now, which is what I did when I first encountered it.

Seems nice

Ha good thread, I used to like Hägar the Horrible, Garfield, Dilbert and of course the classic Peanuts.

One more, for luck:

Gunnerkrigg Court

Oh dayummm, I remember this one! I used to have a lot of webcomics bookmarked back in the day and I was just thinking about them today actually. Gunnerkrigg Court was one of them, but I also remember Dinosaur Comics, Dr McNinja, Cyanide and Happiness, Perry Bible Fellowship, achewood, White Ninja and megatokyo.

One of my all-time favorites:

very nice one ... one truly sees how school was perceived through Calvin's lenses (and this time, without Spaceman Spiff).

xkcd must be mentioned.

[Findecanor]

xckd does not have to be mentioned. Who here does not read xckd regularly?

[Laser]

Heh - that last one deserved to be mentioned, being keyboard-related

Another favorite:

There are some strips that sometime display only minimal humor (i.e. not the "in your face, laugh hard" type) but that, in each drawing, seem to add more and more thin layers to the characters, until you get to know them so well than, when revisited, each strip episode has a totally different depth and communicates with all the others. Or, as in "Wizard of Id", some episodes revisit the same joke, twist it, add a different ending, or change it to another joke, which is ok when seen by itself, but at quite a different level when you remember the previous version on which it's based.

You're right. But just the thought of the endless hours of joy you can give to someone who doesn't know it yet by showing it to them makes it worth the ridiculous odds...

[Rimrul]

The god damn lucky 10000.

[depletedvespene]

I can't believe no one has mentioned The Far Side yet.

[Wodan]

Pearls before Swine obviously

[Kurplop]

I can't believe no one has mentioned The Far Side yet.

I'm glad you did. Definitely my favorite.

[Halvar]

Used to love The Far Side, but it's only a distant memory at this point. There hasn't been anything new since 1995.

Doesn't matter. It stays as fresh as it was back then.

Agreed.

7bit, 7bot and the 7 keycap smurfs...

Some of my favourites, mostly long-form graphic novel in style: Spindrift; Mare Internum; Ava's Demon; Powernap. There's a few more, but the link salad would become too rich.

For Swedes, who like me, grew up with Superman and Bamse - the world's strongest bear: a mashup: Stålbjörnen.
