    For reliable quality I'd go with Schlock Mercenary. It's not-too-soft sci-fi, consistent and pretty good art, a daily update schedule, very good pacing, and nothing about it annoys me.

  5. XKCD April Fools 2012 by Maow · · Score: 4, Interesting

    XKCD's Umwelt comic for April Fools 2012, the best comic ever.

    Dozens of different comics presented depending on your IP, your browser, your geolocation, and many other factors too numerous to enumerate.

    A mind boggling concept, a tremendous amount of work, incredible creativity.

    Shout out to Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal and Tom the Dancing Bug, too. Tom Tomorrow also hits it out of the park on occasion.
