Since Yahtzee has burned quite a few people in his reference to CAD this week, and some people are really annoyed by this, I'd like to ask the people of this site what webcomics, if any, you read so as to see what the general consensus is. Personally, I don't read CAD, but I don't see anything horribly wrong with it either. Here's what I do read:
*Penny Arcade, for a triweekly filling of people nerdier than me
*VGCats, because even though it has some bad execution, it has a good mindset and still manages to hit the bullseye once in a while
*8-Bit Theater, for sheer awesomeness
*Order of the Stick, also for sheer awesomeness
*Megatokyo, because I'm into that sort of thing

Hard to not like Penny-Arcade, they've been around for so long and watching the style evolve has been great fun.

VGCats I think used to be better, over time it seems to have gone a bit downhill. The irregularity of updates can also be a bit of a pain, especially when you compare it to the consistency of Penny-Arcade.

Gone with the Blast Wave I've also thought to be an interesting web comic. It's updates are extremely infrequent, you can read through the entire archive very fast, but it has great artwork for a web comic and can be rather funny.

PAKtS - Awesome webcomic! Nuf' Said!
Ctrl-Alt-Del - Except for when it gets into the plot. :p
Penny Arcade - What GrowlersAtSea said.
VG Cats - Pretty funny, but updates once every 9000 years...
F@NBOY$ - Really funny! Always!
Cyanide & Happiness - YOU HAVE TO READ THIS. ITS THE LAW.

I read the following:

-Penny Arcade, good stuff.
-Ctrl+Alt+Del, that was my first webcomic ever.
-VGCats, I do so love my rat flail.
-Gone with the Blastwave, although I really only read this by technicality, the guy who writes it manages to do about 18 pages a year.
-Looking For Group, because Richard is awesome.
-Sinfest, because it's like Calvin and Hobbes gone seriously, seriously wrong.
-xkcd, because of that guy in the black hat.
-Roosterteeth Comics, which are good.
-Applegeeks, there's some good stuff there.
-Dr.Mcninja, because it's hard to get any cooler than a Irish ninja doctor.
-Holy Bibble, these guys deserve to be read because they're making a comic version of the Holy Bible, from the Creation onwards. They're still in Genesis.

I've also browsed through a few pages of Dinosaur Comics.

Penny arcade is the only one I read with any regularity. I just don't have the time really.
Although I do enjoy joystiqs webcomic wrap-ups on the weekend.

I used to read half a dozen web comics, but many of them lost their funny over time. The survivors are Penny Arcade, and xkcd. I also occasionally check on VGcats, and Perry Bible Fellowship to see if anything new has been posted since they don't exactly update on a regular basis.

XKCD, Perry Bible Fellowship, Cyanide & Happiness and of course CAD.

I sometimes wonder why I post simple things like this. It's not like it was really important or would be read by all.

Oh, boy, I haven't cleaned up my webcomics bookmarks in a while, so it's full of a little crap, but here goes:

8-bit Theatre (the defacto sprite comic)
Alien Loves Predator (the recently added, haven't read it yet comic)
Applegeeks (good stuff)
Bob the Angry Flower (another recently added one I haven't read yet)
Chopping Block (oh, Butch, why do you like the stabbing so)
Deep Fried (recently added, haven't read #3)
Dresden Codak (explain it to me sometime, please)
Drowtales (cause I've been reading it too long to just delete it)
Fallen (come back, Adio, we miss you!)
Gunnerkrigg Court (it's a good one, go read it now)
Kid Radd (if only all sprite comics could be so... good)
Looking For Group (the poor man's WTF)
Lackadasiy (brilliant, better than many printed comics, now get a decent release schedule)
Megatokyo (I'm gonna delete this soon, I promise, just after they finish this next chapter, I swear, I mean it this time)
No Need For Bushido (cause manga parodies can be funny when done right)
Platinum Grit (cause I can't really think of a good reason to like good writing/art)
Questionable Content (I like it, and I don't know why)
Rooster Teeth (Red vs Blue is awesome, comic, not so much)
Sinfest (the only webcomic I really, honestly need)
Sexy Losers (cause I wanna know things...)
Templar, Arizona (insert witty comment here)
The Dreamland Chronicles (ugh, deleting as I type this)
The Wotch: Cheer! (I honestly don't know how this got in there)
Wapsi Square (cause it's weird in a good way)
WTF (the comic LFG wishes it could be)

Those recently added ones are from Yathzee's list, which I disagree with on a lot of them, but there are still others on his little list that I haven't had a chance to read yet: http://www.fullyramblomatic.com/features/goodcomics.htm

Megatokyo: Is my kind of thing, I guess
Cyanide and Happiness: I have a dark, dark sense of humour.
XKCD: Stick-figures rock.
Dominic Deegan: I dunno. Sucker for fantasy, I am.

Dresden Codak is by far my favorite right now although I also read Sinfest, The order of the Stick and occasionally Penny Arcade.

XKCD, Penny Arcade, and PBF are the only ones with any regularity.

Almost every other webcomic sucks hard.
