Weekly Webcomic Wrapup resets for the new year

Why does CAD always need to whip out the boobies to be funny? Too bad the Santa one was funnier anyways. ;)

xkcd = win

The first one and the one with boobs were the funniest.

The second one is by far the truest =)

A weak week, so i went for Dueling Analogues

The other comics were either too minimalistic (DU) or Wall o' Text (CAD)

I love when people complain about CAD having to much text, it is hilarious. I'm gonna go read some manga.

Boobs trump all!

8^U makes an impressive return this week.

Um... Everquest? ONE? He's addicted to Everquest, which came out 11 years ago? Buckley, first you photoshop your characters in the same position for three panels a comic and then you say everquest 1? And you broke out the seventh-grade BOOBIES!LOL joke?

And you're winning?

The first one was incredibly true so I picked it.

so you all you guys above admit to infantile comedy with boobies as commitment to narrative? I've tried, like seriously sat there for more than an hour of my life and reading through the CAD archive, and it was the first web-comic where I read through the archive and decided not to book mark it. It sucks that much balls. (Is that the kind of comedy appropriate for describing CAD?)

500 error?

Voted DU this week, seeing as it was the best of a bad bunch. VG Cats was a close second, but seeing how infrequently it updates, it'll be next Christmas before this story arc's finished / scrapped, which seems to defeat the whole point.

Also, it'd be awesome if this appeared on the poll next week, even if just to see how (badly) it fares in comparison to everything else:

Firstly, comparing CAD to manga when there is no manga in the review in question isn't really helping your cause in defending a really mediocre comic.

"Well. I like how people hate how this has too much text. I'm gonna go read this thing that I think has too much text even though that's never been brought up."

Fantastic.

Second, the difference between Manga text and CAD wall of text is manga has a multitude of things that actually affect how the comic is read. Three lines of text are broken up into three speech bubbles to keep your eyes moving to move you through a page quicker. In other words: Lots of words distributed over many pages.

CAD dumps may lines into one panel with no thought on placement (unless you consider covering up the copy and paste art to be thoughtful speech bubble placement) which just results in WALL OF TEXT WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS.

I also love the character development of the fat jerk, the zany idiot, and the girl who is a girl who rolls her eyes. Very funny and clever. I've also never seen boobs used in such a "clever" way along with the "clever" rpg jokes that have been on the internet since PA and PVP did them years ago alongside of every other 13 year old kid with a scanner.

Oh, and Lilah looks like a dude. Thanks for the side view of the testicles that hang off of "her" chest.

xkcd was the only one of those comics that actually made me laugh.

No love for Janet's Miyamoto guest strip?

For shame, Ross. :(

OH I GET IT BECAUSE ETHAN IS ADDICTED TO EVERQUEST AND BY SHOWING HER BOOBS IT'S A WAY TO GET HIS ATTENTION. HOW CLEVER AND ORIGINAL. PLUS I LIKE HOW HE DOES A GREAT JOB OF INSERTING TONS OF MEANINGLESS TEXT. IT MAKES ME FEEL GOOD FOR BEING A LOYAL READER CUZ I KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON EVEN THOUGH IT'S OBVIOUS AND TOTALLY FUNNY AND IS A HINT INTO THE MIND OF A COMEDIC GENIUS LIKE BUCKLEY. I'M REALLY GLAD I READ THAT.

Dueling Analogs was the best this week for sure. It's not game related, but here's our comic.

boob jokes. I see we're a very sophisticated crowd.

Hah...In CAD, I feel bad that I have to do that to my boyfriend to make him pay attention anymore. Least its true.

I voted for boobies, cuz my wife does that to me as well.. heh.. she has boobies :)

I thought 2PStart was the obvious choice. It was just really clever. All the more so, because people have actually drawn Pac-Man into the streets.

I was hoping one of the options this week was going to xkcd, seeing it as the main image.

This poll does not deliver.:|

(xkcd ftw!)

At first I was going to vote for 2pstart, but then CAD was funny(which it hasn't been in a long time) so I voted for them. I think Tim needs a break from all the hate.

And why the hell do people still read VGcats? It NEVER updates.

Everquest is for Weaboos.

I like how all you people bashing CAD are just doing it because other people liked it. Pointing out how immature the comic is, isn't going to make the CAD-lovers change their mind. You guys need to chill.

I voted for CAD for the "slightly rewired" link, and I generally don't even like CAD
