The Comic Olympics Get Started!

I should have started the medal competition when the olympics started on Friday but I'm lazy so we'll get it going today! The 3 best comics of the day will be ranked from gold to bronze each day until next monday. We will then post our first readers poll for DCR and you'll get a chance to vote for the best gold medal cartoons for our ultimate top 3 medal winners. Exciting!

Cul de Sac 8/12/08

Cul de Sac gets the gold medal today for funniest Tuesday daily comic. If I could pick one cartoonist to design a banner for my website I think it would have to be Richard Thompson. Whenever Alice gets excited her expressions are priceless.


Adam@Home 8/12/08

Wait, did Adam use a whole strip to make this one joke? Ha ha ha, another joke about how much he likes coffee, how original! Maybe tomorrow we'll hear more about how hard it is to work from home even though he is his own boss and doesn't have to commute or be someone's bitch. If it was about sleeping and lasgna Adam would be Garfield, get some new material!


Lio 8/12/08

And coming in second with the silver medal is Lio! That sandwich actually looks more edible than most of the others Dagwood makes with his wild ingredients.


Curtis 8/12/08

It's really great to see Curtis finally adding some diversity to his inner-city world. Even though he looks pretty stereotypical, Andy seems like an interesting character who has a bright future in the comi...... WHAT IS THAT? TERRORIST FIST JAB!!! TERRORIST FIST JAB!!!


Jump Start 8/12/08

This is the first time in a long time that Jump Start actually made me chuckle. For this return from crappy comic land they've jumped up in the rankings to grab the bronze medal for today!


Diesel Sweeties 8/12/08

As a tempermental aquatarian/vegetarian, this Diesel Sweeties web comic was just what I needed to not take my eating so seriously and not be too hard on myself; plus it's hilarious.
