Looking for more light reading (web comics)

I had, earlier this year, a list of good Web comics to check out. I think it was from Arisia. In any event, I can't find it and I'm soliciting new material given that Freakangels' run is now done and several of my regulars (Punch 'n' Pie and OotS in particular) update very slowly.

The only one that I read with any regularity that you haven't listed already is Dominic Deegan, updating every weekday. It's a fantasy world piece, where the main character's magic is mostly related to being an oracle. I'll admit, though that the story can take a while to move along.

I second Spacetrawler. I expect it to be a Hugo nominee next year.

Hugo nominee. Humorous space opera with a hard science underpinning.

What if Star Wars were a roleplaying game?

Here's the write-up from the panel: http://kjc007.livejournal.com/242406.html

I would personally recommend
http://dresdencodak.com/
and
http://www.viruscomix.com/subnormality.html, along with the other comics on the same site by that author.

Also http://oglaf.com/, but it is porn. Funny and well drawn, but totally explicit.
