    Dresden Codak: Awesome. A little bit more philosophical than the others, especially the whole HOB storyline, but comes with robots, lasers, and time travel.

    @Ruthless, If you let me: God that story was so stupidly tedious. It's like he read all three Dune books in a single day and then freaked out and made the world's most boring comic book arc that began nowhere, went nowhere and always featured way too much dialogue.

    The only worse comic is "Goats", which is the dismal ass end of boredom squared.

    @Pope John Peeps II: Although the story might have been a little convoluted, it still doesn't deserve your diatribe.

    I am sure you are not the greatest critic of comic strips to have read ALL the comics and make an egregious offhanded sweeping statement like the one you made above.

    The arc began with the HOB, went to (as any comic strip does) different characters, and featured enough dialogue to make it understandable. Although if you are naturally averse to dialogue and like moving images without any content, Tom & Jerry might be right up your alley.

    Worth every minute.

    Must read through some of them again when I'm more awake to catch all the scientific and philosophical references.

    @InertGlasses: xkcd defines nerdy comic strips, dude. If I had my way, they'd all be xkcd.

    ....with a couple Dinosaur Comics in there....and the Questionable Content can stay.

    @OCEntertainment: I always thought QC was more hip to indie rock culture than nerds (though maybe there's some overlap there that I was not previously aware of).

    And yeah, not sure I've read much else that's comparable to xkcd's nerdiness...Phd comics might have a chance, being entirely about grad students. Hmm..

    @Pope John Peeps II: Questionable Content gets old pretty fast because it doesn't go anywhere! Even when I first started reading through, going through the first 800 or so altogether, it felt like it was taking years to get through a single scene. In real life, it probably did.

    The comic included here, though (which was actually just released recently) fits in the nerdy genre a bit, though. I'd always wished I could see more of those little Anthro PCs. They make the strip for me.

    Dresden Codak. You guys really need to have a look at this webcomic, its one of the most awesome things I have read in a long time.

    The strip boasts of a love for detail and a fascination for robots w/ future.
