Joystiq readers love Scott Ramsoomair. Like, love love. Anything the VG Cats artist touches pretty much shoots to the top of the webcomic wrapup by default. So his spinoff strip, Super Effective, unsurprisingly took very top honors this week.

Second and third place go to 2P Start and Digital Unrest, respectively. Thanks to everyone who voted, and be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!

Is it a good or bad thing when you don't vote for yourself? Had to be honest, 2p Start got my vote this week.

Well, here's mine so far for this week. Monday doesn't have much to do with gaming...

How come you don't host your own website, it is not that hard, and with your original art syle, you could easily stand out in a sea of penny arcade clones.

Scott has been pretty hit or miss with VGCats for a while now. It's good to see that all he needed was a fresh project to bring him back.

The facial expressions alone forced me to vote for it.

the joke is funny, we've all played that game of putting silly names into 'name entry' boxes..

but dammit.. what game is this supposed to parody?

HighFiveJesus: May 7th 2008; 2:42AM

pokemon red/blue/yellow and to a lesser extent.. maybe green too.

Vegeta (aka Ska Oreo): May 7th 2008; 4:25AM

Please tell me you're joking.

Scott originally said it would be Red and Blue but then changed it to Fire Red and Leaf Green in order to have even more crazy moves and to heighten some of the differences between the older and newer generations of Pokemon. He also updated his vgcats and supereffective comics.

Dustin: May 8th 2008; 4:20AM

Thanks guys, much appreciated..

and Vegeta, I'm sorry, I've never played pokemon (I'm an old man!)

TheHuntIsOn: May 7th 2008; 4:40AM

Lulzipops, the only worthy online comic!

MNC Dover: May 7th 2008; 8:50AM

Oh well, last place this week. Can't win em all I suppose. Congrats to VGCats for the far superior Pokemon reference this week. Here's our strip for next week, hope to see it on the poll:

DS makes a kickass light.

A surprisingly game related strip of "a softer world"

Donald: May 7th 2008; 3:21PM

VGCats will probably win again this week for two reasons:

1) Phoenix Wright
2) Z0MG B00BZ~!!!!11111`

BIG-UP congrats to Scott and VGc (or Super Effective in this case)!
