Webcomic readers/artists have been known to create their own memes, which are usually adapted from other sources and printed in comic form.

Webcomics with their own subpage:


Please add entries in the following format:

  • The name of the webcomic.
    • The meme. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The explanation behind the meme, if necessary.[[/labelnote]] Explanation
    • Further mutations and successor memes, if any.


  • According to A Miracle of Science, Brazil has decided you're cuteExplanation.
  • Pick an xkcd comic. Any xkcd comic.
    • You just WON The Game.Explanation
    • "Sudo make me a sandwich."Explanation
    • "Someone is wrong on the internet!"Explanation
    • "You will not go to space today."Explanation

    • Today's lucky ten thousand. Explanation
    • Some of the memes emerged from the offcial forums:
  • The Non-Adventures of Wonderella: My home planet is dead!"
  • Multiple people and even other webcomics have edited or imitated a key panel from Ctrl+Alt+Del's Convenient Miscarriage Story Arc, either to emphasize the Narm of the original comic or for Black Comedy. This has gotten to the point where giving the Internet an image composition tool of any kind is equally as likely to result in a Loss parody as it is in porn. Some examples.
  • Dominic Deegan:
  • Gunnerkrigg Court: Nobody likes Boxbot.
    • To the extent that the first Remix Comic thread on the forum is almost solely devoted to photoshopping Boxbot into other scenes, thereby "ruining" them.

    • THE SADDEST FACE!

  • "Fap fap fap." Although Sexy Losers didn't invent this widespread onomatopoeia for masturbation (that would be the VIZ Media translation of the Manga Heartbroken Angels), this webcomic did introduce it to the Internet and popularize it through frequent use.
  • Schlock Mercenary brings us The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries — particularly Maxim 37: There is no overkill, there is only "open fire" and "I need to reload".
    • Ominous hummmmmmmmm.
    • The fact that Kevyn spends most of his professional career with an antimatter bomb floating above his shoulder.
  • While editing the comic with other ones for humorous effect is a proud tradition in the AZ forums, the only one to spread to the rest of the internet are the ones featuring mash ups of Spare the Rod, with the last panel being a spectacular recent failure
    • If someone had combined this with the miscarriage CAD strip, the internet might have imploded.
  • Nothing Nice to Say had a brief story arc that involved the comic getting taken over by two straw men of the more backwards participants in the punk scene. The resulting Stylistic Suck strips had Fletcher and Blake calling every band they could think of "selloutz!" or "gay selloutz!" and asking "amirite?" after. It caught on, especially on the comments section of punknews.org where people still follow many jokes about bands with "amirite?" (It might actually have been picked up from 4chan.)
