Comics We Love
- Prequel: Inventive, touching and smartly-written like nothing else. Also, it’s about a sad volatile cat girl!

- Gunnerkrigg Court: You’re already reading it, right?
- Cheap Thrills: A heart-wrenching slice-of-life comic.
- Lackadaisy: Memorable characters, a distinctive setting and amazing technical skill.

- Hark, A Vagrant: Don’t miss Kate’s Twitpic account where she posts hilarious diary comics.
- Brawl in the Family: A Nintendo fancomic which sets itself apart with genuinely funny observations. If you know the material, you’ll love it.

- Sticky Comics: A well-written gag strip that covers everything from terrible puns to melancholic observations.
- DAR!: A naughty, often grotesque diary comic. Frequently not safe for work, but very entertaining.
