Anyone have any good webcomic recs?

Which is to say, TV Tropes has a surprising amount of info on both Friendly Hostility and Other People's Business where, apparently, Fox and Collin broke up and now Fox is a friendless unhappy guy? :( This makes me a little sad. I think I need a romance novel STAT.

http://www.oglaf.com is my favourite (MY FAVOURITE), but I don't think it's quite what you're looking for? (It's also incredibly NSFW, be warned.)

Man, I haven't read a proper plotty webcomic in ages. Do they even still make those? Oh wait, I lie, I started reading FreakAngels a while back, the one written by Warren Ellis. That was pretty good actually, not sure why I stopped reading again.

Also, have you ever read Demonology 101? That's complete and all. (And I should really re-read it some day, it's been ages.)

Ohh, I'd totally forgotten about FreakAngels, I remember I stopped because it was updated so slowly?

And you are the second trustworthy source to recommend Oglaf. I feel like I need to start reading it stat!

Do it! Oglaf's amazing, probably the funniest webcomic I've ever read. Really nice art, too.

Oh, I also love Metanoia, but that hasn't been regularly updated in years and I don't know if they'll start again. :/ That's more of a traditional graphic novel.

And do you know Hark! A Vagrant by Kate Beaton? She does these really off-beat and snarky historical(ly inspired) comics.

OMG. I love Kate Beaton so, so much. I did an assignment with my kids where I deleted the text from some of her comics and had them fill the dialogue in. It was hilarious.

BRONTE SISTERS LOVE. And any of the Sherlock ones, too.
