(now with Beta-Carotine and new, minty <A HREF="http://www.keenspace.com/cgi-bin/ubb/fo ... LastLogin=" TARGET=_blank>Forum</A>!)

OK... I can't really put it in any order, because it really shifts every week depending on storylines and whatever. But here goes:<P>Chopping Block
Boxjam's Doodle
Framed
J-Walkin
Hell Sweet Hell
Blotto Street
JoBETH<P>Those are my all out faves.<P>The ones I check frequently are:
Inside Joke(Which just recently started up again)
RPG World
Silly Cone V<P>Pauly<P>------------------
Any artist can call their piece "Untitled", but there's only one <A HREF="http://untitledagain.keenspace.com" TARGET=_blank>Untitled Again</A>.

What pauly said essentially applies to my choices as well~~ the "rankings" really change fairly often, as people's storylines change... I just offered my faves of the moment, I guess...

Hmm...<P>1. <B>Blotto Street</B>
2. <B>Boarders & Sister</B>
3. <B>C.Ulture Shocked</B>
4. <B>FRAMED!!!</B>
5. <B>POCKET</B>
6. <B>Ko Fight Club</B>
7. <B>Floating Henry Rollins Head Haiku</B>
8. <B>Tonja Steele</B>
9. <B>Jackie's Fridge</B>
10. <B>Dylan</B><P>What I think has potential
1. <B>Queen of Wands</B> - Yes, I know it hasn't started yet, but judging by Aeire's fan art and guest strips for the Keenspotters, it'll be awesome
2. <B>Life by Design</B> - c'mon, Consul! Restart this sucker!
3. <B>Regina Felina</B> - great premise, artist is unfortunately AWOL
4. <B>Ancient Messages</B> - it hasn't been around long, but aside from the occasional confusing drawing and some corny dialogue in places, it seems to be getting the Lovecraftian formula right (which isn't easy). And the flying-ball-with-face reminds me of Phantasm, which is an awesome movie.<P>------------------
"Truth hides on the other side of a two-way mirror
In countless documents sent straight to the shredder
That might finally give us the whole of the picture
But until the day we decide to dig a little deeper
We know that truth will hide
Under fallen rocks and stones
At the end of a disconnected phone
Down an unmarked street
And buried, deep beneath your feet."
- Asian Dub Foundation, "Truth Hides" from <I>Community Music</I><p>[This message has been edited by gwalla (edited 12-06-2000).]

As stated before very clearly I don't read enoughtoo many webcomics (aren't they the same thing?) and so I'm on a campaign to bulk up. Right now I'm reading<P>J-Walkin'
Pigman Diaries
SporkMan Chronicles
Ko Fight Club
Keenparody (Whether I like it or not)
<B> lint <P>Sorry about accidentally posting!</B><P>Yeah... I'm some kind of speed reader here.<P>Comics that I want to read are too large to list, but since I don't actually read my own and no one else has mentioned it (through some sort of freak accident that no one should clarify), I would like to sit down and read <P>Nerdz <P>some day.<P>------------------

10. Offbeat<P>I'm not gonna bother with the half point comics since I could easily list a full page of those and it was already hard enough deciding on that top 10 list.<P>Also, this listing your own comic biz is gonna wreck any analysis you'll be making because half the cartoonists are doing it and the other half isn't.<P>------------------
