I LOVE Hyperbole and a Half. I only got introduced to it last week and I fell in love with it. Her zany art cracks me up. I also like xkcd and Cyanide & Happiness.
I keep up with QC, Penny and Aggie, Lackadaisy Cats, Housepets!, Rare Candy Treatment, Faux Pas, Johnny Wander, and I finished Yu + Me a couple months ago.

Hipster Hitler is pretty good, as is Dead Philosophers in Heaven. Also I can really really REALLY recommend you check out one called Forming which you can find here. It has beautiful art with a really excellent concept, and great stories. It takes a little while to get into though; it's a bit confusing to start with. For those unfamiliar with world Mythologies, I suggest keeping Wikipedia open.

There are two I'm insanely into on DeviantART... They're basically a giant crossover of various fandoms. One is called Girls Next Door, and is the companion to another one called Roomates. Christine from Phantom of the Opera and Sarah from Labyrinth share an apartment as they go to college, and have to deal with their old love interests, who live on the floor above them, also sharing an apartment. Roomates focuses on Jareth and Erik, while GND focuses on Sarah and Christine. The author of GND is also insanely into TV Tropes, and at times the fourth wall is gone. At one point Sarah even states to Jareth that she's going to have a friend brick it over so that things stop going wrong. There are so many references to other series I can barely keep track of them all, but various books and movies are brought into play, including PotC, Neil Gaiman's works, Terry Prachett characters, and Lovecraft. They're amazing.

Hyperbole and a Half and The Oatmeal are the only ones I keep up with.
Sidebar: The Oatmeal has a few really funny and helpful grammar related comics, and also one talking about how terrible Twilight is. Go check it out, I'm sure you guys would love it!

www.picturesforsadchildren.comVery...interesting webcomic. Relatively depressing. Also completely awesome. Make sure you read the alt texts. I occasionally read SMBC, Hyperbole and a Half, xkcd, and of course Cyanide and Happiness.

I don't keep up with many webcomics nowadays - just Hyperbole and a Half, The Oatmeal, and VG Cats - but I used to be a big fan of Friendly Hostility while it was still running.

I love Hyperbole and a Half. Probably one of the best ones I've seen. The only other one I really follow is Romantically Apocalyptic - romanticallyapocalyptic.comReally really good artwork combined with brilliantly funny jokes, set in a post-nuclear apocalypse world.

I love webcomics! I don't read nearly as many as I used to.
I currently read: -Something Positive -Scandinavia and the World -Questionable Content -Least I Could Do -Girls with Slingshots -Kevin and Kell
I keep meaning to catch up on: -XKCD -Kagerou -Sinfest -Ctrl+Alt+Del -The Order of the Stick -Jack (Actually I'm in the process of catching up on this one right now, so maybe it'll get added to my "currently reading" list. If you check out this one, know that it's very NSFW) -Oglaf (This one is also very NSFW, but is much too hilarious not to read)
EDIT: Oh man, I forgot FreakAngels, which I also need to catch up on.

-Jack (Actually I'm in the process of catching up on this one right now, so maybe it'll get added to my "currently reading" list. If you check out this one, know that it's very NSFW) Very very very very not safe for work.

Very very very very not safe for work. That is definitely a better way of putting it.

I read webcomics too, but out of my extensive list of them there are only three that I regularly (read: every day) catch up on. Questionable Content. Punch an Pie. Girls with Slingshots. (Speaking of -- today's and yesterday's strips are particularly awesome in an Armadillo-y light!) Others include, but not limited to (both finished and ongoing): Friendly Hostility. Queen of Wands. Something Positive. XKCD Devil's Panties (I confess I haven't been reading these ever since my falling out with the community surrounding them) Least I Could Do and Looking for Group (I have met the writer and artist and had them sign my breasts; it was awesome). Oglaf. (Oh my gods, I love this comic so, so much. I don't catch up as often as the others because it only updates once a week, and I tend to forget.) Chester XYZ 5000 (and anything Jess Fink does). VG Cats. Two Lumps.
