Schlock's currently highest?

I mean, don't get me wrong, the writer's update shedule is very impressive, but the comic itself isn't hugely spectacular. On the other hand, I suppose it is amongst the closest in style to a newspaper cartoon, so that may score it points.

Also quite surprised Gunnerkrigg didn't make an appearance.

You can see in the comics section that Taylor linked his audience to the poll.

PBF was good and since it was 'over the decade' I considered it despite its not being active. H!AV! really wins out because of my love of History.

PVP is still at 0%, which I think is a positive thing.

as someone who heard about this through schlock mercenary's website I will admit that I just perused the list and voted directly for girl genius... It just consistantly wows me...

I don't read very many others, on the list but penny arcade and schlock mercenary I considered too. Sinfest if it wasn't getting sort of played out and OOTS if Rich Burlew's update schedual wasn't the worst in all of webcomics, and his personality wasn't Kurtz-lite...

I can't decide. I love both LICD and Questionable Content. If Something positive was up there I would have even more trouble deciding.

I'm glad to see that Girl Genius is doing pretty strongly in the polls
