Two of my favorite webcomics are xkcd and Irregular Webcomic.  I’ve got quite a few webcomics plugged into Google Reader, but these two stand head and shoulders above all the others.  The primary reason is because they are intelligent comics, relying on a brand of humor that appeals to the mind rather than relying on what I consider to be locker-room humor.  Nearly all the webcomics I read deal with geek humor in some fashion, but only xkcd and Irregular Webcomic rely pretty exclusively on ‘smart’ punchlines.  Comics like Ctrl-Alt-Del and Penny Arcade focus a lot on crude and crass topics and the main reason I keep them in my list is because of the occasional appearance of something truly witty.

Here are a couple of my favorite strips from the last couple of days:

See?  Smart humor.  Funny without the crudity.  That’s my kind of funny.
