Looks like gaming icons need therapy. VG Cats sat down with a few popular characters in their recent strip, resulting in the "most popular webcomic of the week" crown. However redundant you might think it is, we wouldn't mind seeing a few more episodes returning to this theme.Second place went to recently-centennialed Fanboys Online, with a strip (no. 104) on PS3 heroics.

Readers double negate VG Cats as "not not best" webcomic
With a well-established name, a gem of a muse (Phoenix Wright), and sticky sex jokes, VG Cats was the obvious winner from the start of last week's webcomic wrapup.

Readers best webcomic: vegonomics
Despite many objectors in the comments, VG Cats' not-so-subtle vegetable-console analogy took the top spot as the webcomic of the week. Ctrl+Alt+Del's diabolical Sony conspiracy took second place, and Digital Unrest's physics / history lesson takes third.However, our personal favorite, and a favorite of the commenters, was Fanboys' clever "I hacked your board game" strip. Props to you, Scott.Thanks to everyone who voted, and be sure to let us know of any game-related webcomics you stumble upon this week!
