We talk about the web, but does anyone here read web comics? I sure don't.

I was thinking about it but there's apparently a million jillion -- http://www.thewebcomiclist.com/

I like Buttersafe.com a lot. It's always good for a laugh. When I remember I check out Freakangels. There were some Zuda books I was reading.

Are there any superhero or adventure ones (that aren't manga)?

I've been reading "Died Again". Pretty funny. MMOG folks will get a kick out of it.

I've sampled quite a few comics online over the past few years. "The People Who Melt in the Rain" is one of the best. I also like some of the stories in "Midnight Tea Party", although others are too gross for my taste. Amy Kim Ganter also did one called "Reman Mythology" that I remember liking. The latter two have a strong manga influence, but "People Who Melt in the Rain" doesn't.

I've been reading pvponline.com for about 11 years, and all of David Willis's stuff for equally that long. (Started with Roomies!.) Also Penny Arcade since the Sega Saturn.

I'm too much of a luddite, to be honest. Unless printed comics vanish completely, this will never catch on with me.

Then buy the print collections of webcomics. :)

Another one I like is called Multiplex, a movie theater sitcom by my good friend Gordon McAlpin. http://www.multiplexcomic.com

Are any of them good old fashioned superhero comics?

I was reading Jeff Parker's Bucko, but got bored with it.

Bucko went off the rails really quick. I don't want a party with quirky characters. I want Bucko and the murder mystery.
