I've been perusing a lot of web comics lately, and I found Sidescroller.

http://sidescroller.robotmartini.com/

I found it entertaining.

Anyone else have any good ones?

My top webcomics, in no particular order, are:

PA (http://www.penny-arcade.com/)
XKCD (http://www.xkcd.com/)
Kate Beaton (http://www.katebeaton.com/Site/Welcome.html)
Wondermark (http://wondermark.com/)

No huge surprises there.

Oh, and if anyone's not reading FreakAngels (http://www.freakangels.com/?p=23), the first and only (?) webcomic by an already established comic writer (Warren Ellis, of Transmetropolitan fame), they are a foolish fool of the lowest calibre.

The dark sense of humor VG cats never ceases to amuse me.

Kate Beaton is my favourite.

And then the dreamer is also fairly good. Completely different genre but I love the historical setting.

Yaaay!

She's just so... brilliant. Who else makes such wonderful and intelligent historical comics? Also I just love the facial expressions on all her characters.

Gunnerkrigg Court (http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=496) isn't so much a web comic, more a graphic novel, but, dammit, I like it.

Maybe because of his eclectic attitude to mythos. There's not a belief he won't pinch, if he can work it into the story.

The only ones that I regularly come back to are XKCD, Questionable Content and Misfile. Lots of other ones I liked have stopped updating regularly, which to my mind should be a hanging offence.

Agreed.
Especially in cases like "Gone With The Blastwave" for example.
