    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: A shopping trip. A confession. Spontaneous development of a sense of humor. Plus: Meowr. Other things happening this week include the continuation of the "World of Hearthcraft" storyline on NPC, featuring Mary's in-game rogue, who has some tricks up her sleeve. The plot of the murder mystery on Gratz thickens when a new clue is discovered. Plus, both Contested Territory and Sara & Kleeyo posted new content. We are also treated to a guest post by Rug (Arugadh) on Gnomeregan Forever, in which she goes shopping for something not "soooooo BC". If it has gotten you in the mood for some transmog ogling, you might also be interested in the transmog posts over at Chat Channeling (which are not comics), or in revisiting the most excellent Transmog Crisis Make-up! from WoW, eh?. However, we are missing a few of our usual contributors this week, such as Dark Legacy Comics and Kibble & Bit, as well as Teh Gladiators. If you're looking for a little extra reading and viewing material, though, we have you covered; Gratz updated its Extras page, and Best in Slot also posted a new extra, How to Magic.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: Business is booming. Hearthstones save lives. Hell, illustrated. Ghosts are learning the highland fling. Plus: Bones. And something really bad happens to a cookie! (And I think it's too late to save the cookie.) If you missed us last week, you might also have missed out on the start of NPC's latest WoW-related storyline (which is also Hearthstone-related), World of Hearthcraft. If so, why not Pull Up a Chair? In other storyline-related news, Away From Reality has been doing a series of Karazhan-themed comics, which anyone feeling nostalgic should check out. It starts with Endgame. There are a few other things of note happening on the list, including: The first page of From Draenor With Love Chapter 3 went up this week. (The cover art was posted last week.) Guilded Age concludes "Mental Health Day", a short story, and starts up Chapter 31. Space Rocks (Dark Legacy Comics) comes to a weighty conclusion. Plus, if you hadn't noticed, Kibble & Bit is back!

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: An elfie. There are dungeons to plunder. A resurrection is performed. A plan to not get killed in space is hatched and executed. Plus: The power of magical friendship! There are a few goodies of note on the list this week. To start, the Chapter 3 cover for From Draenor With Love is up. No more hiatus! The chapter is titled "Violence". Plus, NPC has started up a new WoW-related (and Hearthstone-related) storyline, which features Mary's rogue in game. You might also notice that Guilded Age has started posting a series of comics as part of a short story called "Mental Health Day" (funded by the Friggstarter campaign funds). There will also be a second short story on the horizon. Plus, next week, Chapter 31 starts up. Experience Boost is also closing up its current storyline, and moving on to something new. Sara & Kleeyo is on the list this week (it is typically up alternating weeks, you might recall), and our relative newcomer, Best in Slot, has posted another extra. Finally, well, someone might just be making a comeback. And if our resident undead gnome cheerleader is done busting out the backflip sprocket-targeting kicks (which I fully support), then I see cartwheels in our future.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: A secret identity is revealed. A good friend is rewarded with betrayal. Well-prepared explorers head into space. Plus: If you've been sleeping in, I bet your favorite authority figure totally knows about it. If you missed the column last week, you might be surprised to find a new addition to our fold, Best in Slot. As there were 14 available comics last week, I've included the newest, #15, today. But there's also a new "extra" feature (and it's really cute). Speaking of extras, From Draenor With Love has posted a thoroughly amusing, genuine script for a comic they never did create. I've included it in this week's list; it gives great insight into some of the creative processes that go into that comic. Plus, apparently, chapter 3 will be posted next week! If you haven't been reading Experience Boost (for some reason?), but have noticed the admirers in the comments section and wondered where to start (besides the beginning), Roster Opening is a great place to join that will bring you through the current storyline. Finally, Gratz posted its questions and answers feature, available below, which addresses Lackinganame's favorite parts of the comic ever created, as well as some future potential plot developments.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: In the mood for veal. An alphabet review lesson. Where chocolate comes from, revealed. Plus: Someone gets demoted! At the top of the list this week, you'll notice a new comic, Best in Slot. I've linked to the archives, and next week, will start listing the most recent comics. Best in Slot is about a death knight named Will who seeks to reclaim his soul. In the process, he not only loses something precious, he unleashes something very powerful, and very vengeful. If you enjoyed last week's editions of Gnomeregan Forever, in which Tridyna 2.0, gnome of the future, made an appearance, you should check out Rug's comment, as well as Trig's (Tridyna's) gnome model suggestions (with links to Photoshopped models). While perusing the list today, you might notice that Gratz will be doing a special Q&A this week. If you have any questions you'd like to see answered, you should submit them ASAP, because the answers go live tomorrow! Finally, as a quick reminder, From Draenor With Love is on a brief hiatus between chapters 2 and 3.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: No crime goes unpunished. We've all got nervous habits. It's time to catch a sha. Plus: A new character is introduced! In comic news, From Draenor With Love closed Chapter 2 last week, and will be taking a short hiatus before releasing Chapter 3. However, Contested Territory is back from its hiatus, with two new comics to enjoy! Gnomeregan Forever is showcasing the new gnome models that will be coming in Warlords of Draenor, by showing you how future Dyna will look, and highlighting some of the improvements happening with it. Finally, we have a Massive Pwnage comic on the list this week. Both Gratz and Guilded Age have released extra updates. And, both Experience Boost and Sara & Kleeyo are back! Check out this week's WoW-related comics:

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: Sailor Moon (sort of)! Linola tries out a new companion. Tax season is afoot. Plus, there's a lucky worgen. The comic news this week is light, as is typical of a week leading up to a holiday, let alone a week that included tax deadlines. There are a few notable absences, including Experience Boost and The Trolling of Azeroth. Contested Territory is scheduled to return to this list next week, however. In the meantime, Gratz has posted an Easter comic. WoW, eh? is back with a new, not depressing, even kind of sparkly update! It's nice to see Cadi happy again. And although our list is a bit short this week, Trigonometry came through with two installments of the Trigonometry interview (on Gnomeregan Forever). As always, we are accepting suggestions for inclusions on this list, as well as tips relating to WoW comics. If you have a tip, drop it into the comments section. And of course, enjoy your holidays! This week's WoW-related comics from around the web:

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: A pattern of revenge is brought to light. A bribe is offered. Some bad advice is dished out. A newfound appreciation for game content is earned. Finally, the hunt for the sorcerer continues (because, fuzzy!). In comic news from the past week, the Looking for Group site has been redesigned. Plus, the kraken is still around! And he has a name (Scooter). The creator of Chat Channeling has answered a questionnaire (as part of a blogging game), so if you're interested in getting to know Witty Warlock, you should check it out. The interview with Trigonometry continues this week. You know, our favorite undead gnome? Who may be our only undead gnome, but that hardly accounts for the love. (I, personally, think it's the cheeks. Anyone?) (Rug is also apparently trying to recruit me to prank Trig more often. I, for one, would be smart enough not to deny Rug something she wants!) In sadder news, Gnomeregan Forever features a comic to commemorate the life of a recently departed in-game friend, Xiaolong. I am sure that even though many of us have not suffered a loss in quite this manner, we all know what it is to make real friends in this game, who are there for us when we are sick or down or out, as well as when we really need a new piece of gear or a partner to take on the world (of Azeroth). Our condolences. As a reminder, in case you missed us last week, Contested Territory is on an unexpected (but brief) hiatus. It will return April 18, and show up here again on April 27.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week in comics: Someone is really lazy (and pays for it). A deal, and a neck, are struck. A kraken plays with his food, and it's adorable. What else? Oh, yeah! The end is nigh! Also on the list this week, Away From Reality has a comparison of some of Blizzard's plans and attitudes "then" and "now". And if you're a fan of Richard's antics, you won't want to skip this week's Looking for Group, either. Everyone's favorite undead gnome is giving an interview. Finally, there's one leftover April Fools prank on the list. Can you spot it? In comic news, The Trolling of Azeroth is back, and so is Kibble & Bit! However, Contested Territory is on a brief hiatus due to scheduling conflicts. It is set to resume updating on April 18, which means it will reappear on SMF by April 27. If you missed us last week, you might want to check out Gnomeregan Forever. There was an April Fools special, featuring a very amusing prank. And me! I made a guest appearance, and got to have some holiday fun. I was a bit vague about it last week because I didn't want to ruin the surprise, but if you skipped it, you should check it out. Finally, if you're in the market for a gaming PC (or you simply enjoy ogling themed merchandise), there's one available with everyone's favorite cats decorating its side.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: Baking with vanilla is never as boring as it might sound. An assault is launched from a garrison. A negotiation devolves to threats. Finally: Afraid to sleep outside in the dark? No living reason you should be! Well, folks, it's almost April Fool's Day, and this week, we have an extra special Gnomeregan Forever just for the holiday. It even features a guest appearance! There's also a special edition of Away From Reality up this week, and I wouldn't miss it if I were you. It's excellent. Fans of Gigz' Kitchen will want to make sure not to skip DLC this week, as well. In sadder news, Surviving Azeroth Chapter 1 concludes this week! It will go on hiatus and we will be notified when Chapter 2 is afoot. Plus, Shields and Sheep was discontinued, sadly. Zuulzilla (the artist of both): Enjoy your break! Finally, although there is no WoW-related NPC this week, I thought I would do a shout-out to Mary's Patreon page, in case anyone has missed it. The perks are great for even $1 monthly donors (sketches and behind-the-scenes content) and, you know, cats that play WoW.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: A kitty is trapped and only Narya can, uh, save Whiskers? Cadi is drowning the world's sorrows. A dwarf bursts into song, though maybe not the song you'd expect. A brother is slain. A moat makes someone very happy. Last week, Gratz uncharacteristically only posted two comics, when typically there are three. Obviously, this could not stand. To make up for it, we have four this week, plus a new drawing in the Extras section. (It is worth noting that few comics on our list typically post more than once or twice a week, so three most weeks is excellent, and four is a nice treat!) Surviving Azeroth was missing last week, but is back this week with a new comic. Next week, Chapter One is scheduled to conclude, at which point, the comic will go on hiatus. We will all have to wait for Chapter Two, it seems! Rug popped into the comments section last week to hint at a "certain calendar idea." Why do I feel like the theme might be something along the lines of "sexy ripped male dwarves with beards that waft wonderfully in the various breezes of 2014"? Here are this week's WoW-related comics:

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, in comics: Fans of Donald will not want to miss Dark Legacy Comics, as he struggles to make sense of his world. Guilded Age features a guest comic. NPC has two strips up about friendship and being social. Plus, Thizzible has had a garrison all along! (Gasp in envy!) Last week was Vidyala's (of From Draenor With Love) birthday week! Happy birthday, Vid! In honor (and to take a break), there are some really cool behind the scenes images up this week instead of a comic. I recommend checking it out, even if you don't normally read the comic, as it's interesting and not dependent on you knowing much about it. (Though you should totally be reading the comic.) Plus, if you are really into before-and-after shots of artist studios (and who isn't?), there are more photos on Vid's tumblr. You may notice a few other comics taking a break this week, including Surviving Azeroth, as well as a couple comics that are doing fewer updates this week, such as Gratz. However, all is not lost, for Fox Rain is back, and Chapter 6 of Contested Territory is upon us! On the list this week is the Chapter 6 cover artwork and the first page. Enjoy!

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. On last week's list, we were mysteriously missing a few of our regular comics. Well, this week, you will be pleased to hear, two of the missing comics are back! Kibble and Bit even updated with a fun illustrated explanation that I won't spoil for you. Sara & Kleeyo is also back, although that was never terribly mysterious, as it updates a bit sporadically (by design). Fox Rain is still missing, however, and The Trolling of Azeroth is out again this week. However, Trolling will return to regular updates again soon, we have been recently assured. As a reminder, Contested Territory is still on hiatus. However, it begins updating tomorrow! Of course, the next chapter won't appear on our list until next week, because I (unfortunately) cannot link from the future. I can't wait though! I'll be here, posting as usual, gobbling up the new content. In the meantime, this week, there are some sketches up to check out, including a really cute holiday-themed one. And, if you missed us last week, you might want to peruse the list for a couple of new comics! Shields and Sheep is done by the same artist as Surviving Azeroth, while Chat Channeling is by a new artist. Finally, there was reportedly a glitch with the Teh Gladiators site last week. It seems to be working now, but leave a comment (or remove the www from the address) if it is bugging out for you. And now, for this week's list of WoW-related comics from around the web:

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. It is March, and every March, I can't help being reminded of the "lamb or lion" exercise we always had to complete in early elementary school years. Like, journal entries and drawings and posters on the wall and everything, because this is super important stuff. March 2014, at least where I am, came in like a lion (the perfect excuse to stay in and read comics, I think). As for this week's comic list, we have a couple of new additions, thanks to zuulzilla (of Surviving Azeroth). Firstly, because one of them is a new project (to be updated in addition to Surviving Azeroth, not instead of), called Shields and Sheep. Secondly, for pointing us to a friend's project, Chat Channeling. I know I only almost always say it, but tips are always welcome!

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. Alternatively titled, "Your graveyard or mine?" On this week's edition of Sunday Morning Funnies, both Experience Boost and Surviving Azeroth are back with new updates! Contested Territory is still on hiatus, but in the meantime, Herding Cats (the first-ever comic drawn by Maiu) is being posted, and there are new pages up this week. Massive Pwnage posted another WoW-related comic, so check it out! The list this week is nice and full and has some very fun stuff happening, as well as some heavier, more serious stuff. Here's a quick taste of what you'll find: An existential crisis Setting a loved one free Dancing cats A lot of breakage... A valentine A pile of trash and assorted unlucky people And this week will also probably mark the last of the Valentine's Day (or Love Is in the Air) comics. Trig pointed out in last week's comments section that although he didn't celebrate the holiday for many years, he's coming to appreciate its potential for the acquiring of free chocolate. That's the holiday spirit, and pretty much sums up my childhood experiences with it, too. So, Trig probably spent the day munching (and making comics, because he's unstoppable). I did a belated dinner out, though it totally involved chocolate cake. How did everyone else spend last weekend?

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. Since last week included Valentine's Day, there are some holiday-themed comics on the list this week. This includes special tidings from Gratz in place of regular updates, which will resume next week. There is also a guest strip on Experience Boost due to the family emergency situation noted last week. By next week, regular updates are supposed to resume with this comic as well. If you missed us last week, Contested Territory is on another hiatus while the next chapter is being prepared. In the meantime, her first ever comic, "Herding Cats", is being posted. With cats! Our other absence is Surviving Azeroth, which is out this week, but will return in time for the February 23rd edition of SMF. But, the list still has some pretty fun stuff going on. Here's a taste: Decapitation! A tutorial A passion for dance A spray bottle with water and vinegar Finally, although Massive Pwnage is rarely WoW-related (and thus rarely featured here), it was featured last week. Just in time for the creator's new baby girl, Luna, to arrive in the world, so I couldn't resist sending a congratulations, and a welcome. (Luna is apparently a Level One Human, though I am not sure how fun they are to party with. I suspect they need to pretty much be carried, no?)

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. Happy February, comic lovers. To kick off a short month, we have a shorter list than usual, with several comics skipping the week, or missing the cutoff date. To make up for it, I'm including a bonus comic: Pinned! from NPC. You can imagine that Lisa is playing WoW, there. It's also the next comic posted since last week, so if you like to keep up whether it's WoW-related or not, click through and read on. But, there is still quite a bit happening on our list, including romance, fights, reminiscing, sneaker, and more. Curious? Here's a tiny preview: A question and answer Several comics with storylines involving parents (love, abandonment, the usual!) A plot diagram Snowshoe rabbits Get reading!

    Still not sure what to get that special someone for Valentine's Day? our favorite doodling gnome is here to help by taking your Valentine doodle requests on the forums. So if you're not sure just what to say or how to say it... why not say it with a romantic (maybe) doodle? We can't think of a better expression of affection. If you want a doodle of your own, head to the forums to request one. But if you just want to see the latest Doodlegnome masterpieces, here are our favorites: The traditional Valentine's murloc A story of love and toast Zarhym's Valentine wishes Crithto and Sylvanas' forbidden love Just remember: Doodlegnome is but one gnome and might not get around to all requests.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. This week, WoW, eh? is back. Plus, there are some bonus drawings posted to Facebook: Magical Girl Tier Set, Leather Magical Girl Tier Set, Plate Magical Girl Tier Set, Cloth Also on the list this week is NPC with two WoW-related offerings. Plus, one of them is also about Downton Abbey, which fans will appreciate. (And, if you've never given it a go, you should consider it. Bink is!) The other is (sort of) about Sherlock, which I'm certain you can't pass up. From Draenor With Love has done up a bonus comic, as well, showing some character color keys. Last week, reader Rosend asked how to go about getting a comic added to this lineup. Any web comic can be submitted to us either by dropping a link into the comments section, or by contacting the team and putting "SMF" in the subject line. We are always taking suggestions and submissions.

    Sunday Morning Funnies is your weekly list of WoW-related web comics. In comic news this week, there is still no WoW, eh? to be had! Hopefully your technical issues are resolved soon, Kelly! Also, last week's comments section was definitely worth a read if you missed out on it. One reader has been inspired to consider starting a comic, which is definitely cool. Not only are we always looking for more comics, but it's exciting to be able to feature someone new, and add to our list, which is full of comics that use various techniques and are created by people with various skills and skill levels. So, doooo it, I say! Any of our regular readers will remember that Trig deals with daily pain. Last week, Trig left this comment: "I've finally have a possible diagnosis and am undergoing a treatment plan involving a TENS unit. Who knew that electrical shocks would help so much? Feel lots better." Congratulations, Trig! It's about time, and we all hope that you continue to feel better and improve!
