Eight Bit Theater. A good a start as any. It was even funnier when I was in middle school.

Neglected Mario Characters was my first, and I have no regrets.

I think it was either 8-Bit Theater or Bob and George.

Pretty sure it was Freefall. From there I ended up adding dozens of others to my "binge list", which builds up a big-enough list in a couple of months that it takes me several weeks to catch up on everything. Most of the entries on the Furry Comic index are part of that list of bookmarks, even before I was introduced to TV Tropes. Comics with furry characters probably make up around half my list.

I recently finished a full Archive Binge of Freefall (as in, the last couple of weeks) outside of my normal comic browsing.

In order of discovery, Megatokyo, Mac Hall, and RPG World. I miss RPG World the most.

Thanks for the all fish!

Freefall. Though I never made it all the way through that behemoth.

Then OOTS. Which I finished my binge and have been following up untill recently when i stopped to let the plot move along.

After that I went Bonkers over El Goonish Shive.

Then I figured out how to write and draw effectively and went quite a bit less bonkers.

I can't remember which one was first, but it'd be either Girl Genius or Inhuman. Both of them discovered via this very wiki. Man, the amount of things this site has hooked me onto...

Ages and ages ago, my dad emailed me a link to The Grand List Of Console Role Playing Game Cliches, and I browsed out to other things the guy - Mark Sachs - had worked on. One of those things was A Miracle Of Science. (He also had an excellent link list, one of which I ignored for a long time because I was ignorant of the idea of Art Evolution. My loss.)

VG Cats. I was browsing the boards on Game FA Qs when someone had a link to it. So I decided to check it out. Keep in mind this was back when it still updated every monday.

That's also how I started reading Shortpacked! and ruined/enhanced my life.

Not In My Backyard. Way the hell back in 1998 when I was still using a laptop from 1993 to get online.

First webcomic ever? Pokemon X

First webcomic I really got into and enjoyed? El Goonish Shive

Unfortunately, I no longer enjoy EGS and don't bother reading or discussing it. Or Pokemon X.

It's hard to say. I stumbled across Bob And George, Adventurers, and RPG World around the same time, so I can't say which one I started following first.

I did enjoy RPG World more than the others, though.

Turn Signals on a Land Raider was the first one I read. I then read the webcomics that were linked from it, then the ones linked from those then the...

TSOALR was really something quite cool.

My first webcomic coincided with my first access to the internet,way back in 1998/9: Kevin And Kell. Other illustrious names were soon to follow: User Friendly. Exploitation Now. RealLife. I still follow the last one.

Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.

DMFA, before that I tried and tried to find something great through this wiki but either I hadn't searched enough or I was just unlucky. Then one day I was browsing on FA as usual when somehow I was informed of missmab.com and the comic. Once I checked it out I was blown away by the sheer jump in quality (though you probably won't be able to tell by looking at the first 70 to 80 stripes as it only starts being good after that).

I later found other awesomeness through this wiki but that came later...and DMFA is still like my third favorite comic minimum.

Order Of The Stick. I saw it back when it ran in Dragon and decided to check it out. Thinking about it, that was almost five years ago. Wow.

It's still at the top of my extremely long webcomics bookmark list because of this.

My first introduction to the idea of "online comics" was penny arcade, which almost turned me off webcomics for life, do to it's sometimes very crude jokes. My first webcomic I readwas Brawl In The Family, which got me back into the webcomics medium, and indirectly led me to OOTS, Dr McNinja, El Goonish Shive, Girl Genious, Gunnerkrigg Court, and many others.

Go play Kentucky Route Zero. Now.
