    What is are favourite comic stirps, and post some of your favourites here.

    I am personally a huge fan of Calvin and Hobbes and think Bill Waterson's work is pure genius,

    Calvin and hobbes and the farside are the only comics to ever cause me to audibly laugh. Sadly, just about everything else is total crap. I wish I could be a cartoonist because when I read a Garfield strip, I know that I'm capable of creating something funnier. Although just about anybody could make something funnier than Garfield. Some of the very first Garfield strips from the 70's were actually pretty funny but Jim Davis sold out and merchandised. Thank God Watterson didn't do the same.

    I'm tempted to go and just scan pages off of the Calvin & Hobbes comic collection books I have.

    Hooray for Garfield minus Garfield.

    But I'm a sucker for xkcd, not only for its lol-science jokes, but it has the best mouse over text of any comic.

    First off, I think you mean favorite. Damn foreigners adding unnecessary letters. Now, would anyone like to explain what a stirp is?

    What the fuck? Why did they switch the letters? Do they use the word strip at all or is it just with comics that they don't?

    Adding letters? Didn't the Americans leave them out instead? Speaking of which, why is "don't ... no" regarded as either "don't" or "no" when it's "yes" when you think about it...

    Anyway, I really like C&H and VGC. And of course, Donald Duck, he's awesome. Oh, and some Belgian and Dutch strips, and Asterix & Obelix are pretty awesome as well.

    It's favourite. Just like 'color' is actually colour or 'meter' is actually metre.
