So Nymeth has challeneged everyone to take some time to check out a web-comic and share with the class. In my case, I read about four comics on a normal basis. I found most of them through some of my more geeky friends and love them.
The first, and one of my favorites, is Real Life Comics by Greg Dean. This comic has been around for a few years and relates a bit from Dean's real life (thus, the title) and then takes some of it into the more fantastic. For example, his friend Tony has a space station and has almost taken over the world a few times in the past. Not so much reality, but lots of fun. Another I love is Girl Genius, which is about Agatha Heterodyne, a genius with inventing and someone who seems to get into trouble. Also in my list, is Something Positive, a very cynical but amusing comic, and Ctrl-Alt-Del, which is usually pretty funny and makes comments about the gaming world (which I only understand because of some of my friends.
For some reason, I usually don't think of these as reading, but then again, it is, in essence, an online graphic novel. Oh well, my prejudices regarding reading are constantly shifting and here's one more idea to change!
Back to the books!

I like Something Positive too. The others are new to me, so I'm going to check them out. Thanks for participating in the Mini-Challenge!
You won! Look at Dewey's post, here: http://deweymonster.com/?p=807
Congratulations, Aria!
I didn't orginally count my webcomic reading in my reading numbers either, but Dewey told me I should. That helped challenge my conceptions too.
And cograts on winning!!
