Some new webcomics if you're interested. First up, Backwards Compatible by Aaron Williams. It has a little something for everyone: the ladies, video game cynics, and virtual rockers. Everybody's happy!
Second, Ding! by Scott Kurtz for all your Warcraft inside joke needs.
WTF: no RSS feed from Backwards compatible?
I just noticed that too. Can't you do something, samurai flip?
Hmm. They seem to be having problems. I guess the site is technically still in Beta or something. The send button on the Contact Us page as well as the send button on the Report Problem With This Page page are both broken and do not do anything. Lame.
On another note, it seems Mutts creator Patrick McDonnell has just recently seen The Big Lebowski:
More later this week...
I think they (CrispyGamer) are having some start-up issues as they have not yet launched the featured blog that I had been enjoying elsewhere (Games for Lunch).
Well lookit that... Post Johnny Hart, the comic BC has become chuckle-worthy again. (I counted three chuckles per last ten days. I am also easily amused. YMMV.)
Almost every Cul de Sac makes me laugh until my heart hurts.
A few:
* "A kid who's even weirder than me"
* Flander's Domestic Bliss
* A Children's Garden of Cynicism

If I haven't evangelized it enough: in what should by all rights be the twilight of his career, cartooning great Garry Trudeau is turning out the best work he's ever done. Start with this one and these two. (Backstory -- Melissa is one of several OIF soldiers fighting post-traumatic stress disorder, in her case from sexual assault by a superior officer. BD, the older one, has been dealing with PTSD and the loss of his leg. Collection of PTSD backstory strips here.) Trudeau has become a champion of injured soldiers and donated the proceeds from his most recent book to Fisher House, which supports families of injured vets. The military community -- who, for the most part, lie outside Doonesbury's traditional demographic -- have embraced the examination of what happens when the helmet comes off.
