Sunday Morning Funnies: Epic win

First of all, I would like to congratulate Keyra for winning the virtual cookies! This batch is vegan upon request, comes with a nice tall glass of cold soy milk, and I'll even throw in some fresh berries. Khloe Kardashian was the right answer to last week's impromptu trivia question!

Watch out for this week's trivia question, buried in amongst the comics.

Unfortunately, I didn't receive any new comic tips, but I don't think you'll be disappointed!

On a side note, I feel very lucky that photographing one's collection of My Little Ponies is a relatively popular occurrence, for how else would I have found such a lovely epic pony? I had more to choose from than I would have imagined, but I finally narrowed it down to the lucky pony on the right.

Sunday Morning Funnies: Jazzercise

Ladies and gentlemen, and all those with paws/hooves, etc, I think we might just be entering a new phase of the Sunday Morning Funnies. Why? Because this week's list is pretty long too.

So long, in fact, that I had to throw it all behind the break again. Have I missed any? Do you know of a comic that isn't listed here? If so, throw it into the comments section! Let's see just how long we can make this thing. Hunt them down, and leave me a tip.

Last week, I seem to recall promising you a Long Cat. Just to be safe, I've delivered two. Yes, you can all has long cats.

Sunday Morning Funnies: We're long

This week's list is huge. Massive. You have to click through the break to even see it! But I warn you: before you do, you might want to make some preparations.

Cancel whatever you have scheduled today.

Make a pot of coffee.

Do some stretches; long bouts of sitting are unhealthy.

Feed the cats. Let the dog out.

Seriously, this list is big. It's unruly!

P.S. I tried to get you guys a good Long Cat picture but I failed you all. Maybe next time? Yes. Next time.

In a related note, I have a distaste for the new way to search through the icanhascheezburger site.

Ready? Set. Go!

Insider Trader: Gadgets for the modern Engineer


Insider Trader is your inside line on making, selling, buying and using player-made products.

Engineering has quite a few useful tools in addition to their famous repertoire of toys, but not every player knows how to make the most of them. There are many reasons for this, including:
  • Not being informed on the latest improvements. Consumables may be less cost-prohibitive, for example, than the last time you checked.
  • Believing the "Engineering is useless" hype that lingers from darker days, and feeling creatively blocked after an expensive and tedious leveling process.
  • Being an irrational yet strangely normal cooldown and consumable saving individual. Awkward Zombie illustrates the latter nicely, and we've talked about stingy cooldown use in the past.
This week, Insider Trader is going to discuss a handful of the Engineering tools that you really should be using to the fullest, and why.

Sunday Morning Funnies: Do I sound fat?

Awkward ZombieToday'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: A murder of crows and a crew of dwarfs

Cru the DwarfHappy Mother's Day to all you WoW Moms, and for all you kids who might have forgotten, you'd better go say it now while you've just been reminded. Come back though, because I have a nice list of comics waiting, as well as a (mostly) friendly gnome controversy.

Sunday Morning Funnies: Look at all the femurs

www.awkwardzombie.comThis 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!).
  1. Awkward Zombie: Horse Remorse. I love the comment underneath!
  2. Cru the Dwarf is back up and running!
  3. Experience Points: Vincent gets a Mammoth, and reminisces about the old days.
  4. Check out the latest from Flintlocke vs. the Horde.
  5. GU Comics: A Touch Obvious. I highly recommend reading the story underneath it (as I always do, really).
  6. Check out the latest from LFG. My only complaint is the absence of the bunny. Usually he can be seen idling in the background, at least!
  7. Manic Graffiti: My Money's on an EU Guild.
  8. Massive Pwnage: Level Requirements.
  9. NoObz: Overcheatage. I think everyone knows how this feels.
  10. NPC: Diversion Tactics. My cats do something like this too, although I think they might just be gunning for my chair.
  11. Teh Gladiators: The Man's a Manimal.

Sunday Morning Funnies: Failed analogies

Can you believe it's almost April? I'm afraid of the impending warm weather.

This week, we have two absentee comic authors, not counting those that do not update regularly. Fortunately, both left us filler content, so it's almost as if we're not missing anything. We also have a new, one-time comic this week.
  1. Awkward Zombie: Bully Mammoth.
  2. Check out the latest from Cru the Dwarf. I like this one, or "heart" it as it were.
  3. Dark Legacy Comics points to Death Knights as our latest common enemy, but did anyone pause for the butterfly?
  4. Blizzard has a fifth game in development, you know. Experience Points.
  5. Flintlocke vs. the Horde shows that while Trolls might be questionably gruesome, they're also pretty forgiving.
  6. Giant Sewer Rat. GU Comics.
  7. Check out the latest from LFG. Man, I love that bunny.
  8. New Venture, from Monkey Punchers.
  9. NoObz filler.
  10. NPC: Toxic Guilt.
  11. Teh Gladiators: All he wanted was to play.
  12. More filler! Due to the flu, Disgraph is filler this week. I wouldn't recommend reading it though if you're eating or have sympathetic reflexes.
  13. World of Warcraft, eh?: The Horse Men Cometh.
  14. SMBC has posted a WoW-relevant comic. Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

Sunday Morning Funnies: Scrapbooking profession

This week's list has some real gems, including a new comic:

Sunday Morning Funnies: Just a dream

www.darklegacycomics.comIt is March! You can grab your free gems from The Consortium in Nagrand (does anyone still do that?), chart out whether the month is starting as a Lion or a Lamb, or lament the hour of sleep you are going to lose mid-month. Other than that, read the comics!

Sunday Morning Funnies: On a Monday!

www.darklegacycomics.comor, "They possess more flying fish than I expected."

Although it is Monday, this morning I am going to pretend that it is in fact, Sunday. After all, no one really likes Mondays, even if they're manic. Luckily for you, I have quite the list of comics for your enjoyment!
  1. Awkward Zombie has posted another WoW-related comic, Stinking With Portals.
  2. Cru the Dwarf is now on page 72 of his echoing through time.
  3. Dark Legacy Comics points out the No-Fly Zone. I lean towards agreeing with them that the general placement of said zone is inconvenient. It seems to be a conspiracy on the part of the Flightmasters to convince me to pay them to fly me to Coldarra or Sholazar Basin.
  4. Have you ever wondered what life would be like if your reputation gains worked the same way as in-game?
  5. Actually, have you ever considered bravely sending a special someone an in-game gift? Experience Points has.
  6. In Flintlocke vs. the Horde, there seems to be a disagreement about who should be included as an adventuring buddy.
  7. GU Comics is Looking for Clever. Actually, Woody is looking to whore hire himself out! Check out the various ways you can put him to work and get some cool, collectible, and/or custom stuff.
  8. Check out the latest from LFG.
  9. Manic Graffiti always gets me smiling! Check out, Noobcow and Lame Jokes Heard While Waiting for PuGs to Start.
  10. Massive Pwnage has an inkling of what might be better than WoW. You Should See PvP.
  11. I always knew Flapcat was better than Ally-bird! Air Superiority was determined this past week on Monkey Punchers.
  12. NoObz points out that, especially for noobs, World of Warcraft can be a source of Stress.
  13. I know that many of you last week were disappointed with Ding!'s re-return, and unfortunately, there's no new comic this week.
  14. Teh Gladiators: Ping-Pong.
  15. World of Warcraft, eh? warns, You Won't Like Me When I'm Angry.
  16. The Scout Report has posted #63 and I love it. Unfortunately, I found out that when I tried to hit "Previous" to see if I had missed any other comics since last Sunday, it took me back to #52. So I recommend either jumping back five comics, or just reading from #52 if you think you've missed a couple!
  17. From The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf comes Nuts Make Me Giggle. On this musical-fruit-note, I end this week's list!

Sunday Morning Funnies: Kick off 2009

World of Warcraft, eh?Happy New Year! While everyone has been a little off of their normal schedules due to the holidays, you may notice that some of your comics faves are absent this week. Fortunately, after digging a little deeper, I managed to come up with a sizeable list, including a comic that has not been previously featured on the Sunday Morning Funnies.

Sunday Morning Funnies: On the flip side

The summer season is just starting to gear up, and it seems that if you are not checking out arena season four, you're planning a trip, hosting a barbecue, or otherwise outside enjoying the sunshine. It seems that your favorite webcomic artists are no different!

Though this week's selection is small, less choice should make for a tighter run. As always, feel free to suggest new comics in the comments section!
  1. From Awkward Zombie comes In a Blink, showcasing the perils of using blink as a primary form of travel.
  2. NoObz explores the art of questing and saving for gear and flight.
  3. Kissybear is still enjoying his new alliance toon.
  4. Teh Gladiators' battle continues with the ancient arena fighter.
  5. Someone tastes like chicken on LFG!
  6. It is time for Blanc to Meet Lance!

Sunday Morning Funnies: WoW is not a religion

This week we have a nice long list of comics for you to sink your teeth or tusks into. As always, don't forget to leave your tips to other WoW-themed comics so that they can be featured here! We're also saying a special goodbye to Manic Graffiti. Great work and we'll miss you! Here's hoping this isn't forever!
  1. Connedromat from Awkward Zombie kicks off your Sunday morning with a little bit of logic.
  2. Ana Hala Balablah from Dark Legacy Comics seems intent on being contrary to logic.
  3. Shakes and Fidget have to decide whether their new acquaintance is Friend or Foe?
  4. If you liked our recent coverage of Blizzard handling director Uwe Boll, you'll get a laugh out of GU Comics' Especially Not You.
  5. Manic Graffiti sends us a parting statement, mixed with a little hope, in Good-bye is Not Forever.
  6. Monkey Punchers explores the Unplayable.
  7. NoObz #8 suggests that maybe, just maybe, justice will find that little beggar you can't stand.
  8. Ding! explores some of the effects of WoW on the body and mind.
  9. Teh Gladiators enter their first arena match with their new, unlikely teammates.
  10. From The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf comes WoW is Not a Religion.
  11. The Scout Report is a bit confused over Mr. Snuggles.
Head through the break to vote on your favorite.
