Hi everyone! I’m a big fan of clever and witty comic strips. While I enjoy classics like Calvin and Hobbes and Pearls Before Swine, I’d love to explore some lesser-known gems.
Do you have any favorite comic strips—digital or print—that deserve more attention? Bonus points for sharp humor or unique art styles!
I think you’re going to have to dig into the wayback machine (because I don’t think they’re actively hosted anywhere anymore?), but Nothing Nice To Say by Mitch Clem was a great punk rock web comic from the 2000s.
I highly recommend The Perry Bible Fellowship
Well, if you’re looking for unrelatable and occasionally disgusting comics, check out mine. 😎
I’m a big fan of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, a webcomic.
Not lesser known but my favorite: Gary Larson’s The far side always gave me a chuckle.
I loved “The adventures of Oscar Zahn” great read. Alternatively if you have never read Garfield there is a bot who posts all the strip in chronological order over at Garfield@lemmy.world
Also before “The odd ones out” made his weird and abstract comics, he did actually make a funny little series similar to the peanuts
Falseknees makes gorgeous comics about birds. Each strip feels like art
Work chronicles makes funny corporate related strips but has inconsistent posting
Rustledjimmies made some great comics in the past but I haven’t heard of him in a long time
Poorly Drawn Lines.
Newspaper style comics specifically? Maybe Fraz. Revolves around a janitor working at an elementary school. I haven’t kept up with it but the creator cites Calvin and Hobbes as an inspiration and I love what I’ve read so far.
