Some of them are not appropriate for the website, but my favorite is the one where someone is teaching gophers or something to throw grenades and skydive.
It doesn’t go well, obviously.

The crocs are the best part of this strip.

I’ve seen the newspaper versions i believe, and they are hit and miss… i tend to be interested in other online comic strip series nowadays such as Questionable Content which has more adult themes and a very strong storyline focusing around ‘love and friendship and the incoming robotic apocalypse’
For something published, I do love the edge this strip has. The strips with the creator are my favorite.

Boondocks was also known for it’s edginess.
I do enjoy the strip. I recall recently Bill Waterson of Calvin & Hobbes guest drew some of them.

'Twas an enjoyable comic, and one of my favorites back when I read the comics in the paper. I still liked Pickles, For Better or Worse, Retail, and Bloom County more (though I believe that one has gone by several names over the years).
Personally, as enjoyable as comics in the papers are, there are several web comics that just outpreform them so much that I’ve not been reading comics in the papers lately. I guess the internet offers more freedom in terms of creativity, I mean, there’s no way a comic like Romantically Apocalyptic (warning: there’s some swearing in that comic) would ever be in a newspaper. Not just because of the content but also because of the intricate, full-page art style, and the story serial-esque writing that accompanies it.
I actually love this series.
I haven’t read it in a long time, but I remember it fondly.
