We should've been doing this all along. Now realizing the error in our ways, the Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is reverting itself to a perpetual state of beta. All of our faults can now be explainedly, simply, as "we are still in beta and will work out the kinks for final launch at a later date." Brilliant! Here are our picks for the week's best game-related webcomic. Polling after the break; be sure to vote for your favorite!
Spartantenial (Fanboys Online)
In Due Time (Castle Vidcons)
In Tow (Awkward Zombie)
Thinking Small (Penny Arcade)
SQUIR- (Super Effective)
Great Debate (2P Start)
A Ring is a Ring (Digital Unrest)
Kung Fu Yeti (MNC)
(What? You say we didn't pick your favorite gaming comic this week? Make sure we and everyone else gets to see it in the comments below. Also, don't blame us -- we're still in beta.)

What an action packed week for webcomics. Well, it was a good week for reporting and debates as well.
BrennaCeDria @ Sep 21st 2008 11:50PM
Also, the current link is going to the new comic, not Kung Fu Yeti.

ring is a ring, omg lol
Haggard (Mr.ESC resurrection force) @ Sep 21st 2008 5:12PM
I went for Castle Vidcons (the first time ever) because it's true, though PA made me chuckle.
Ghen @ Sep 21st 2008 5:16PM
Science AND games! YAY!! (DU)
Neebs @ Sep 21st 2008 5:18PM
Vidcons this week. Fanboys close.
This is relevant:

lol
"Several other entries to the competition proved popular. Colliderscope garnered many votes, along with Black Mesa, the name of an ill-fated research facility in the game franchise Half-Life."
loof @ Sep 21st 2008 5:21PM
Great Debate by far.
ThornedVenom (Harley Quinn Defense Force) @ Sep 21st 2008 5:23PM
A good week for comics it is!
Top Cat @ Sep 21st 2008 5:26PM
not a bad week, shame PA couldn't up their horrible "standard" to meet with the others.
2p start it is!
MowDownJoe @ Sep 21st 2008 5:28PM
You should be saying your comment system is in perpetual beta.
Anyway, I went with PA. I got a laugh out of it, and then I listened to the podcast and laughed more.
Papytendo @ Sep 21st 2008 5:30PM
Bah. Cubetoons owned all those......

Ghen @ Sep 22nd 2008 3:41PM
No. I don't think so. worse than MNC
Wiinterfang @ Sep 21st 2008 5:34PM
I voted for Great Debate but the last one was so funny.
Surly Yerby @ Sep 21st 2008 5:38PM
Great debate FTW.
Alex McKee @ Sep 21st 2008 5:39PM
Jeez, are you guys google now or something? That's always been the google excuse. "It's still in beta. Don't complain to us." Frikkin Gmail's still in beta!
theJoKell @ Sep 21st 2008 5:58PM
Nice job stealing (or is it borrowing) Delicious Monster's graphic there. :)
Mr Khan @ Sep 21st 2008 5:59PM
Super Effective. Totally awesome.
Penny Arcade was good for once, and DU and 2P Start were totally in the running.
Fernando Rocker @ Sep 21st 2008 6:00PM
Wow... 2P Start is full of win this week. Very funny =p
Kyattsuai @ Sep 21st 2008 6:21PM
2P was pretty good this week, I always liked the Mushroom Kingdom's bumbling mess of a political system.
For your consideration, I made a comic of my own. You might like it... maybe.

Titanium_Orchid @ Sep 21st 2008 8:40PM
I would have voted for it.
Banstyle @ Sep 21st 2008 6:27PM
Where's VGCats? That last one about Castle Crashers had me in tears.
capt_carl @ Sep 21st 2008 6:29PM
Don't forget time travel and DeLoreans. I was crying from laughter.
TheOverlord#2 (Playing: SMRPG, SMG, & Okami) @ Sep 21st 2008 9:19PM
Yeah, put up VGCats up there! If anyone complains you can just say it's in beta...
TheMagnificen7 @ Sep 22nd 2008 2:02AM
Oh my god, hopefully that makes it in next week, it will win in a landslide. I love the expression at the end... loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
Ninja_Nun @ Sep 21st 2008 6:35PM
Gotta say thats one of the best weeks in ages, could have easily voted for Castle vidcons, fanboys or super effective but had to settle on the digital unrest one. Verily a hearty LOL was had by all.
jcmschwa @ Sep 21st 2008 8:34PM
they all suck.
MNC Dover @ Sep 21st 2008 9:56PM
LOL, you're absolu...wait, hold on a sec. You're actually wrong.
spyker @ Sep 21st 2008 10:21PM
Image stolen again :P.
Duo @ Sep 21st 2008 10:39PM
While potentially unfair for the comics themselves, it would be far more convenient for us Joystiq readers if you embedded each week's comics - either into the post, after the break; or in a seperate gallery.
El Verde @ Sep 22nd 2008 12:48AM
Not only potentially unfair; potentially infringing.
Hold control while you click the links; then you won't ever have to leave the 'stiq.
(tabs - let me show you them)
CJLopez @ Sep 21st 2008 11:42PM
Man, the decision is pretty hard, 2p or fanboys, bouth are pretty good
El Verde @ Sep 22nd 2008 12:37AM
Loving the art at Super Effective, plus the man makes a point: squirtle really could stand to slim down a bit.
dv0rak @ Sep 22nd 2008 3:02AM
Steal graphics much? The folks at delicious monster would like their beta image back.
j.howlett @ Sep 22nd 2008 7:14AM
did they say that or are you just over reacting?
ZENegade @ Sep 22nd 2008 4:27AM
Who knew Squirtle was bulimic? Ew.
PhilipWPerna @ Sep 22nd 2008 7:15AM
Castle VidCons has never made me laugh. It's just a really, really, really bad webcomic and should be removed forever from Webcomic Wrap-Up.
JCD @ Sep 22nd 2008 11:05AM
Agreed. First prize!
John Z @ Sep 22nd 2008 7:50AM
I go in for physical comedy mostly, so it was a really tough call between Awkward Zombie and MNC this week... but went with AZ just because it's a more "universal" gag. Though 2P Start had a good concept, too, just... wall of text kinda killed it.
343 Guilty Fart @ Sep 22nd 2008 1:32PM
The link to 2P doesn't work for me(?)

Again, I implore you to view my comics!
Okay, implore is a strong phrase...but what the hell else you gonna do at work today?!
