XKCD is a terrible webcomic (is that redundant?) featuring stick figures talking about things that make people who use Linux feel clever. And I fucking hate seeing it on digg. It's on there all the time. It never fails to make the top stories that day. I don't get how so many people could find it funny. In other words, XKCD is the Larry The Cable Guy of webcomics. It degrades us all.
Other terrible webcomics? CTRL+ALT+DEL, VG Catz, PvP, User Friendly -- the list goes on. I actually used to read Real Life Comics and PvP quite regularly. Now I feel ashamed that I did. I've nothing against the creators of those comics (they seem like decent people), and they may even have some funny moments, but really, they're quite "blah".
Some poor soul out there actually takes the trouble to tell you why a lot of these webcomics are so terrible. Bless him, 'cause I haven't the patience or a vocabulary filled with enough vile.
Really the only webcomics I fully enjoy are Penny Arcade, The Perry Bible Fellowship, and Garfield Minus Garfield. And I don't care, because that's enough.

Garfield minus Garfield isn't a webcomic! Its on a web and about a comic, but that there is no original work done.
That aside, I like a lot of long form webcomics like Dr. McNinja or Gunnerkrigg Court. But I'll get my daily laughs from more classic formats like Penny Arcade or Horribleville. If I have one more person tell me that I don't like the jokes in XKCD just cause I don't get it I'll murder someone. I get them okay, they're just not funny.
Not all webcomics are terrible, but its really hard to sift through all the junk that people put out there cause its free.
