Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is Where the Wild Things Are

Ten sentences. That's the length of Maurice Sendak's beloved children's book, which was recently adapted into a full length film by respective geniuses Spike Jonze and Dave Eggers. Say, that's not much longer than the amount of dialogue in your standard three-panel webcomic, is it? We'd pay good money to see a gaming webcomic-to-film adaptation -- though it may lack the innocent sense of wonder that Where the Wild Things Are brought to the table. Those Things, though Wild, rarely made references to genitalia, you see.

Our seven favorite comics from this past week are listed below. Check them over, vote for your favorite after the jump, and tell us which Wild Thing is your favorite in the comments section. (Ours is, of course, Denise Richards.)

The Logic as Applied to Toilets (Digital Unrest)
Garbled for Your Protection (Penny Arcade)
Still Better than Mafia Wars (Virtual Shackles)
Better Without Subtitles (Warning: Uncharted 2 spoilers!) (Of Noobs and Men)
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 (Another Video Game Webcomic)
Half Minute Hero (Monday Night Crew)
Scott's 360 is Dead (Extra Life)
