My Newfound Addiction - Webcomics

I've been using my free time to read a lot of webcomics (no superheroes please). I found most of these using StumbleUpon/friend recommendations. I've subscribed to them using rssfwd, a service that tracks changes in RSS feeds and sends a new posting directly to your mailbox (I always forget to open Google Reader).

Here is my reading list:

• Questionable Content - I like the author's sense of humor and his drawing. You only have to overlook the references to music. Can be sarcastic at times.
• Something Positive - My latest read. Sarcasm at its very best.
• Ctrl+Alt+Delete - The author's imagination about video games got me addicted. Plus, Ethan is crazy.
• Sinfest - A black comedy that has interesting characters and some good jokes packed in a single line format.
• xkcd - For geeks only. I love this one :)
• Rob and Elliot - Rob is an amusing character.
• Sluggy Freelance - This guy has about the imaginative mind I have ever encountered.
• Nothing Better - This is not exactly funny and the main theme is teenagers trying to understand the meaning of God. It can get a bit boring, but the characters are well defined and the illustrations are simply awesome.
• Luann - Brad's gullibility is endearing, and Luann is good looking too. Luann reminds me of Betty. This is one of the famous comics out there, and the site is only the online version of the syndicated strip (unlike others that are purely webcomics.

The next time you find an afternoon with nothing better to do (and a working internet connection, of course) - give yourself a laugh.

Beware though - these comics are addictive. Do not say that no one warned you :)

Also, don't forget to check out 'This is our Life' by Rajneesh Kapoor everyday in HT City. 'This is our Life' is about a young Indian who has much the same cribs as you and me - women, cricket, politics and boring television shows. You could also pick up his books from Barista outlets.

What do you read online? Drop me a link in a comment.

EDIT: Another favorite is PHD comics - a comic that I had exhausted 2 years back - but continues to be a hit amongst those who want to look back at those grueling years spent studying.
