You’re scared to have a Summah? Don’t be crazy! Let the yucks linked below warm you up before getting out of that recycled air and to the boardwalk.

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is so bright and vivid
Posted by Game Mania in Joystiq, Youtube on July 11, 2010
All we’ve ever wanted from this humble weekly feature is for one reader — just one! — to react as passionately to our favorite comics as the now-infamous Hungrybear did to those full-on double rainbows . We’re not sure how to go about accomplishing this feat.

Posted by Game Mania in Joystiq on June 27, 2010
The Joystiq Podcast wasn’t the only regular feature that we were to slammed to produce last week — the rigors of E3 2010 also prevented us from doing the Weekly Webcomic Wrapup. As such, we’ve decided to include our favorite comics from the past two weeks this time around. We’re sure you won’t mind; as busy as we were writing the news last week, we’re sure you were equally busy consuming it

Posted by Game Mania in Joystiq, Uncategorized on May 2, 2010
Can you see it, folks? It’s the future! And it’s filled with Bungie and Bungie-related spinoff games — and it’s soon! That’s right: for the next ten years, we’ll be seeing the world through our Bungivision-tinted glasses , forgetting all about that scuttlebutt that went down between the “Modern Whatsitfare 6″ (or whatever) developer and Activision, like, forever ago . For now though, we’ll just keep right on reading these weekly webcomic releases and looking forward to the next pew-pew title, hoping that if we miss any especially fantastic comics, you’ll let us know in the comments section below

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is probably art
Posted by Game Mania in Joystiq on April 25, 2010

If April showers bring May flowers, what will the next month bring to us, considering the first tenth of April has brought us nothing but sunshine and blue skies? The answer is, of course, ghosts . We’re going to be dealing with an inordinate amount of spectral visages next month, so we suggest taking the necessary precautions right now.

Readers pick best webcomic: The Gods of Modernity

We never considered the possibility of an Xbox Live moderator being elevated to folk hero status — the topic of last week’s Wrapup winner, Penny Arcade’s ” The Gods of Modernity .” Then again, we suppose it’s not unthinkable. In our minds, the moderation of a massive gaming service is roughly equivalent with being a giant, ox-domesticating lumberjack
