Sunday Morning Funnies: Unlikely transformation
It's Sunday Morning Funnies Time! Coincidentally, this could coincide with Peanut Butter Jelly Time, if that is how you roll at breakfast. Today we explore the origin of a mysterious sound, find out how Worgen came to be Druids, and then escape from a Blizzard dungeon, all while drinking our morning coffees. Dark Legacy Comics: Clink Clink. Well that is one way to save money, isn't it? Check out the latest from LFG. Pay extra special attention to the discovery made in panel six, because it isn't made by looking! Teh Gladiators: I Am Your Father. I wonder if martial arts are a rat racial ability? The Scout Report #75 suggests that Scout may be stuck as a Gnome for awhile. She may be slow to take a hint, but she eventually figures it out, although that fight probably would've been amusing. Noobs: The Deadmines. I think someone is about to get schooled in loot etiquette. Beyond the Tree: Staggering Knowledge. NPC: Kiblets. NPC: Tail of Escape Part 1 and Tail or Escape Part 2. Part two is so awesome and adorable that I can't even begin to comment! WoW eh: Yes, Google Is That Old. I love how disinterested the Worgen looks in the last panel. Cru the Dwarf: The Exorcist. I love the artwork in this one!
Sunday Morning Funnies: Bow chicka wow wow
It's the last weekend in August, and the summer is slipping away. To soothe you, here's your regularly scheduled dose of WoW-related comic goodness. Well, except for the chicken. That's just a wee bit traumatizing. Dark Legacy Comics: Kabobs. That'd Be Sweet. GU Comics: You Have a Choice. LFG. NoObz: Supply and Demand. Teh Gladiators. The Scout Report #73 and #74. Noobs: Tauren Paladin. Beyond the Tree: The Price Steak. Experience Points: Vincent reflects on a great BlizzCon 2009. Vincent has a zombie (no wait that's Ozzy!). Steve plays with the iPhone. NPC: I'd Rather Be Hiking. NPC: Imprisonable Offense. NPC: Sunset. World of Warcraft, eh?: Nice One, Elune. World of Warcraft, eh?: The Bold and the Beautiful.
Sunday Morning Funnies: Scared straight
This week's list has quite a few new listings, with one that I am particularly excited about. Without further ado: Noobs has posted part two of Gold Issues. On Scout Report, we find out the word that is actually worse than "kittens." While the ensuing squabble become unintelligible, we do learn a bit about their mother. Cru: Holy Brown-Nosing. Dark Legacy Comics: Bill #307A. I know they come right out and say it, but I still think that ending is lame. Experience Points: Vincent has a nightmare. Vincent packs for BlizzCon. His costume plans are not going so well, however. LFG proves that you should stay in school to be awesome. NPC: Driving. I love his facial expression in that one. I've also never seen anyone this excited about doing Dailies. NPC: Sorry. Well I suppose it kind of was her fault. Check out the latest from Teh Gladiators. GU Comics: Given the Choice. GU Comics: My Frustration. Patches are a cruel mistress, my friend. NoObz: Profiling. The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf: The Instance Portal Shuffle. Oh my! Check out the latest from Kuo. Beyond the Tree: All Going South. The Battlemasters: Into the Fray. This is the first entry from a new comic that I'm really loving. The artwork is awesome, and the coloring, especially on the bear in the second entry, The Oil Refinery, blows me away. Read below it to learn about the contest for a custom forum signature! To learn more about the duo behind it (including our very own Zach Yonzon!), check out their About page. I decided to link you to a rather NSFW selection of comics this week, ala Supermegatopia, By Way of Booty Bay. I don't think that they go in any particular order, but it's a good page to bookmark and visit when you have some time. Here's another comic, new to the list but certainly not particularly far in, Nitropie. I'll have more to say about it next week when I can figure out how to make my browser navigate it properly.
Sunday Morning Funnies: Lookin' familiar
Once again, I have a new comic to list! Keep the tips coming. Somewhere in the list today is the secret identity of last week's "mystery" picture! Check out Noobs, a new comic, and one that is not to be confused with NoObz, which isn't WoW-related this week. Scout Report: We finally find out why Scout's sister is hanging around! This of course leads to a rather strange conversation, about kittens (of a sort). Cru the Dwarf: Bless This Thy Holy Boot. Well, they've reached the Scarlet Monastery. The message at the bottom says it all! Dark Legacy Comics: Gretta's Plan. Experience Points: Vincent is planning his trip to BlizzCon with his new pal, Steve. Experience Points: Vincent hangs out with Steve on patch day. I am kind of afraid of his sandwich. LFG: Meet the Mistress of Magma. NPC: Overcome. NPC: A break seems to be in the couple's future, but Smelly Demographics shows the flaw in the first activity suggested. So, they decide to take a different sort of trip, because they've had Too Much WoW. Check out the latest from Teh Gladiators. Kuo: This guest comic is awesomely cute, and in translation. For regular comics, evidently, Sylvanas just wasn't as cool before she died. Beyond the Tree: No purse, no pursuit. WoW-eh: The Mis-Adventures of....
Sunday Morning Funnies: Awakening
Today, not only do we have a reader submission and a few unexpected updates, a long-dormant but awesome comic has awoken. The Scout Report has updated! Looks like last week's whining was but a moment too soon. Hurray! Cru the Dwarf: Slobberchops. Dark Legacy Comics: Marmalade. Experience Points: Vincent continues on his journey, and finally gets to meet the person who sent the iPhone message. Check out the latest from LFG. NoObz: World of Stars. NPC: Binge. This is exactly how most days start for me too! NPC: Break. Note: Looking at your Twitter feed, that's hilarious that your Mom said mats! I love it. Teh Gladiators. The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf: I Blame Blizzard. I totally know this feeling. By now, I should have at least two Azure Whelpling pets, but no. Reader submission from themightysven: Nobody Scores. Warcraft the Dark Spider Wrath Thing from Kuo. Beyond the Tree: It's all green. WoW eh: I Always Feel Like Somebody's Watching Me.
Sunday Morning Funnies: Facepalm
It's a thrifty list this week, but with three from NPC and a newbie to the list, you should still have a fair amount to read. Disgraph is set to start updating again, Cru is on a break, and Kuo is being delayed due to studies. Flintlocke vs. the Horde has officially ended, Shakes and Fidget was shut down awhile ago, and I'm missing my Scout Report pretty hard. Just throwing that out there.Now that that it's Sunday morning and you know where your comics are, carry on! The Secret Meeting. Dark Legacy Comics. Experience Points has posted quite a few updates on a new story arc. I recommend starting with this one, which was linked last week, and then shuffling forward on your own. GU Comics: Call it Research. The latest LFG is quite interesting. I don't know if I'm more perplexed by his decision not to put on pants, or if I'm mostly nervous about his eyes in the last panel. Coercer has pointed out a comic I haven't listed before called Beyond the Tree. Check it out, and next week I'll start posting from the latest rather than the first. Thanks for the tip! NoObz: Undercover. NPC: 5 Pounds of Turkey Livers and Bink Quits WoW? and finally, Picked On. Teh Gladiators: Face Off! There will be no Road to BlizzCon this year! Still, if you're nostalgic or you missed it, now is as good a time as any to catch up. WoW eh: Dual-Speculating. I love this one! Particularly diabolical. You should also note that World of Warcraft eh?'s first store has been opened, and there is artwork to be had! Check out the latest from Two Lumps: the Adventures of Ebenezer and Snooch.
Sunday Morning Funnies: Bearded Snuggle Bunny
Last week's Funnies had quite the commenter turnout! To add my two cents (sorry, Canadian money), I would like to point out that despite the name of this column, web comics do not actually have to be funny to be included. Serious submissions, especially when coupled with stellar artwork, are always welcome. Incidentally, the name of this column was probably created just to confuse you.I'd also like to know when everybody allegedly started to prefer one-shot comics to those with a story arc? Personally, I love both types. I also enjoy recurring themes and "inside" jokes. I do try to feature comics that stand well on their own, but I'm not going to omit something good just because it doesn't appeal to everyone. Cru the Dwarf: Bedsheet Bump in the Night and the rather comical Brain Freeze that ensues. Experience Points: Vincent has his hands full with gear disputes, an overactive imagination, and the new iPhone Armory app that's acting a bit strangely. Flintlocke vs. the Horde: The Showdown, part 22. LFG: #270. Monkey Punchers: Turning Point. Kuo: Chapter 3, Kobold's Ambition 6. WoW eh: Milk: It'll Do Your Body Good. I love that last frame especially! Teh Gladiators: Fight it, Papa! NPC: Speciesists. The cats write a forum post in to Blizzard with some, er, suggestions, and Blizz Responds. I love these kitties! NoObz: NoobyNoob. The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf: Hail the One True King. Thank goodness I wasn't drinking anything when I read this! In fact, I think I've learned instinctively to put the cup down before I start reading this one. I recommend reading it over a few times, because the awesomeness doesn't fade. Side Note: Not WoW related, but totally kitty and MJ related, from The Adventures of Ebenezer and Snooch. Next, I will include a link to something that we've been tipped off to all week.
Sunday Morning Funnies: If you wannabe
This week's list is short but sweet. Tried and true. We're still missing Disgraph (cries) but most others are present and accounted for. Check out the latest from LFG. NoObz: Who's Up For.... NPC: Outrage. (I miss my kitties). Teh Gladiators: Papa! WoW eh: The End of a Memory. Again, I love the artwork. It's always evolving. The armor looks fantastic. Check out the latest from Kuo, and be sure to read the description underneath the comic. Flintlocke vs. the Horde. Vincent checks out Twitter in WoW, and tests the Mountain Dew drinks. Well, at least one of them. Society for the Betterment of NPC Characters. Dark Legacy Comics. GU Comics: Wannabes.
Sunday Morning Funnies: Just a quickie
It's Sunday, the 5th of July, and somehow I think that some of you guys are either traveling, sleeping in, or "mysteriously" a little ill. This one's dedicated to all of you. I hope you had a happy Fourth of July, and here's a quickie to enjoy before you realize that today is the last day of the Midsummer Fire Festival and you never did get around to finishing those achievements. Cru the Dwarf: A Pile of Dried Plums. Dark Legacy Comics: On the Run. GU Comics: If the Armor Fits. On Experience Points, Vincent finds a way to solve his problem. Flintlocke vs. the Horde.

Sunday Morning Funnies: A frightening button
It's officially summer, or Midsummer, if you like. This week's list is pretty hefty and even has a few seasonal entries. Enjoy! Cru the Dwarf: Sir Lothar has been given some cryptic orders. Dark Legacy Comics: Invention Time! I really liked this one. What could go wrong with Invention Time? GU Comics: Ingenious Plan. I have not yet done this, but I can't say I've been looking forward to it either. I did however spend some time screwing up my karma by the bonfire in Silvermoon City. GU Comics: More Fire Catching. I echo these sentiments. In the conclusion to Victor's plight from Experience Points, the punishment is laid out. I for one, agree RedWoodElf's comment. Then he ventures out onto a date "IRL" but doesn't get what he bargained for. Personally, I like comparing their head sizes. Oddly enough, he bravely pushes through. Check out the latest from Flintlocke vs. the Horde. I am totally jealous of that dude's button. In LFG's latest, the gnomes are getting restless, though they remain content to do nothing about it. NoObz: I'm Worth It. I never find any good options either. NPC: Kitty Names Revealed. It seems that cat identities are similar to those of females on the Internet. NPC: Perspective. Heck, people need guild bank alts these days! I have two. Teh Gladiators: The Beast Rares its Ugly Head(s). Kuo: When the Kobold disappears, the adventurers employ their own methods of finding him. World of Warcraft, eh?: The Battle is Lost. I love the detail of the creepy centaur's fingernails. I can't wait for the new features!

Sunday Morning Funnies: Do I sound fat?
Today's comic list is full of surprises, including great artwork, plot development, hilarity, and one or two that didn't really tickle my fancy this week. Perhaps if I were a bigger fan of tacos....

Sunday Morning Funnies: 98% agree
Another Sunday arrives, and now it is almost June! This means less than a month until servers flood with children, Barrens chat takes on new life, and we're all being asked for "golds" and dungeon runs. Savor the next couple of weeks. Check out the latest from Cru and the one before that! After all, I can't have you all missing the drunken bar scenes.

Sunday Morning Funnies: A murder of crows and a crew of dwarfs

Cru the Dwarf is making fire. Nifty things are afoot! Experience Points examines the latest content patch. Flintlocke vs the Horde: War Party part 11. GU Comics: It Figures. This is related to a recent story that we covered involving hacked accounts, a GM item, and some very naughty players. Read all about the Martin Fury Scandal, and then tell us what you thought in our polls. GU Comics also hosted a guest strip by Stormhaven, called Inconsistent Know-How. Don't forget to read the explanation underneath! Before I did, I thought it was about the fact that Mustard Dogs seems to never come up. I have stacks and stacks of the Rhino Dogs, but no dice. GU Comics also posted a comic about last week's Noblegarden festivities, Rabbits Everywhere. This is the second-latest LFG comic, but I thought that it stood better on its own than #248. NoObz: Useless. NPC: For the Taurine! I love this one. If you don't know what Taurine is, you don't love your cats enough. Yep, I said it. Check out the latest from Teh Gladiators.

This week, we have a couple of comics that haven't updated because the authors are otherwise occupied. Namely, these are The Adventures of Disgraph T Dwarf and World of Warcraft, eh?. Enjoy your hiatus, Cadychan, and good luck with your story D (I can call you that, y'see, we're tight or something. Plus, you won't know if I'm really calling you Dan, Disgraph, or "Dwarf", which is slightly better than "You" but not quite as polite as "You there!", and I do like to antagonize Dwarves!).
