Soap on a Rope by Bob Roberds. Adventures of cartoonist Max Slacker and his loser pals, occasionally involving visits to alternate Earths and entanglements with suspiciously Nivenesque aliens. (Dormant since November 2009.)

Goats by Jon Rosenberg. Thor's spare goat, a Satanist chicken, zombies, love, a beer-dwelling fish, two wacky pervs from the stars . . and then it gets weird.

Fluble by Christopher Mastrangelo. Surreal, satirical. Frogs, exploding cows, a clown who ran away from the circus, doomsday, that sort of thing. (Dormant since 2001 May 15; now "closed".)

Freefall by Mark Stanley. A spaceship whose captain takes dishonesty as a moral imperative.

Bobbins by John Allison. Good old English eccentricity. (Concluded; Scary-Go-Round retains some of the characters.) (Domain parked.)

College Roomies from Hell by Maritza Campos. Fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer ought to like it: it's weird, funny, tragic and, above all, human.

When I Grow Up by Jeff Rowland. Four friends, a stalker, and a talking donkey; described in an interview as a parody of twentysomethings sitcoms. (Concluded; see also Wigu.) (Domain parked.)

Absurd Notions by Kevin Pease. Housemates: a cynical sysop, a prank-loving cartoonist, an idealistic programmer, and Biff. (Dormant since 2007 October 30.)

Alice by Michael McKay-Fleming. A girl with hyperactive imagination. (Concluded 2006 July 7.)

Snail Dust by Jenny Rowland. Life of an introverted young woman, with the obligatory magical talking snail. (Abandoned 2005 August 12.)

JoBeth by BJ Hiorns and Joey Hetzel. ‘Dumb blonde’ gags; sensibly, it stopped when the creators used up their backlog. (Domain now gone.) (See also Jackie's Fridge and Tonja Steele.)

Schlock Mercenary by Howard Tayler. Military sci-fi. Demonstrates that you needn't be a flaming leftist to take violence seriously and still be funny.

Tonja Steele by Joey Hetzel. “A happy, friendly comic about the wholesome goodness that comes from a single adoptive mom [an amazon] raising her 8-year-old demon child primarily at a local bar, surrounded by mom's socially retarded friends.” (Dormant since April 2010.)

Chopping Block by Lee Adam Herold. Panel gags about a serial killer, rendered in an unusual way.

Flem by James L Grant. The pointer is to the beginning of the semi-factual Tale of Jay: a sick & twisted saga of sex & drugs & violence, and a bright spot between series of unfunny gags.

Shaw Island by Zach Stroum. A young man moves to the San Juan Islands (Wash., U.S.) to forget love. He sometimes gets entangled in the wars of the crabs and the hamsters.

The New Adventures of Bobbin! by Joycelyn Yik. Schoolgirls (in Singapore) who are rather more innocent than they would prefer to be. (Vanished; her new site is draw me, DRAW ME!!!.)

The Gods of Arr-Kelaan by Chuck Rowles. A colony ship crashes (on a planet inhabited by people who appear to be human) and its passengers, somehow scattered, find that they now have godlike powers. (Consequences)

Casey & Andy by Andy Weir (author of The Martian). Two young mad scientists. One really has the girlfriend from Hell. (Concluded 2008 August 25.)

Sam and Fuzzy by Sam Logan. A shy cab-driver and his sociopathic pet.

Scandal Sheet by Troy Smith. Behind the scenes at a crank tabloid.

Scary-Go-Round by John Allison. One could call it a grown-up version of Scooby-Doo (without the damn dog or ... well, any of the cast) if one couldn't think of a halfway decent way to describe it. (Concluded 2009 September 11; succeeded by Bad Machinery.)

Catharsis by Jen Boeke. A young woman, her pet dragon, his pet squirrel, the dustbunnies who live under the sofa . . (Missing?)

Irregular Webcomic! by David Morgan-Mar. Spoofs on anything from Indiana Jones to Nigerian spams. Photographed rather than drawn; almost entirely done with LEGO. Daily comics stopped in October 2011; now weekly essays on science.

Questionable Content by Jeph Jacques. Subject matter reminiscent of Something Positive; mannerisms and loopy banter reminiscent of Bobbins. I wonder how many readers are, like me, completely unaware of the music scene to which so many of the throwaway jokes allude, and enjoy it anyway. For all I know, none of the bands mentioned really exist.

Everyone Drunk But Me by Laura Beth Brandt. True stories of an exchange student in Russia. (Concluded 2006 May 28.) (Domain parked.)

Dead Winter by Allison Shabet. A plucky waitress, armed with a mop, faces the zombie apocalypse.
