Wicked, was not updating for several months but is tentatively starting 
up again.
http://queenofwands.net/ ... It's finished, as in Aeire the 
writer/artist has moved on to authoring another strip: 
http://www.punchanpie.net/ ... so far, equally funny, good stuff.
http://www.narbonic.com/ is finished but going through the old strips. 
The adventures of a crew of Mad Scientists.
http://www.graphicsmash.com/comics/unafrontiers.php is by a Canadian, 
Monique MacNaughton. Post-apocalyptic adventure strip.
Jennie Breeden draws http://devilspanties.keenspot.com/ , about her 
alter ego, a webcomic artist and RPG player.
