Readers pick best webcomic (Jan 8 - 14)

This is a first for the webcomic roundup: both VG Cats and Penny Arcade, Joystiq reader favorites, were nominated - and yet, neither came out victorious. By a very narrow margin, up-and-coming Press Start to Play was voted best webcomic of the week, with 26% favoring their reinterpretation of the Mario games. VG Cats and Penny Arcade each had 25%, with VG Cats one-upping Tycho and Gabe by a mere 3 votes.

Thanks to everyone who voted, and be sure to let us know of any game-releated webcomics you loved this week.

And could we mention yet again to check out the new Sam & Max strip? We love it when Steve Purcell throws us a bone.
