My own, personal top 5ish webcomics would probably be
1. Penny Arcade
2. Dr. McNinja
3. Hark! A Vagrant
4. Perry Bible Fellowship
5. Olgaf
6. Nedroid Picture Diary
7. 8-Bit Theater (I know, I know, I like a sprite comic, I'm sub-human)
I have been following 8-bit since it started, and I wasn't even in High school. It's not like I can quit now.
It's not even a question of liking it or not at this point, it is just something that I do.
i dunno what my favorite webcomic is right now. achewood has been in a serious lull and supermega doesn't update enough. probably either PA or nedroid.

Heh, yeah that's pretty much my story as well.
I just went to the archives, and it turns out I've been reading that damn comic three times a week for eight years now. Amazing.
Of course, around that same time, Bob and George was my actual homepage. Sustain me with your hate.
I read Goats, Hark! A Vagrant and PvP pretty regularly (and F Chords but Straub isn't updating it anymore ), but the only comic I really make a point to read every update is PA
so I voted for xkcd

xkcd is the new Dilbert. I have started seeing it posted in paper form on professors' doors and in peoples' cubicles around NASA. If it ends up winning I won't be surprised, especially considering the type of audience who reads the Washington Post.
That list is really terrible. Hark a Vagrant, PA, and PBF are the only halfway decent ones on there and PBF hasn't been active in over a year. They left out a bunch of good ones and included some that are just mind-numbingly terrible.
"I think xkcd is the best because of its innovation: roll-over text to provide a second punchline to each strip, online forums for fans to discuss the strip or whatever else, and perhaps most of all, the real world meet-ups between fans. I am simply unaware of a single comic EVER that has inspired so many Live Action events (comic BOOKS sure, but a daily or weekly strip? No way.) Personally, I prefer continuing storyline strips (Girls With Sling Shots, Questionable Content, Legend of Bill.) But xkcd uses the internet to actually transform the way readers experience the comic: it's not just a funny or edgy strip scanned and posted. xkcd has really created something different, which is why I rank it "The Best" of the past decade. (On a personal note: Michael, what are the chances of getting an interview with Randall? I have SUCH a nerd crush on him.)"
Hurrrrggg this must be what brain cancer feels like. I was considering just fakeposting this straight but I couldn't do it.

If this guy loves alt-text so much, he should worship Dinosaur Comics
i heard this xkcd guy had lots of comics about ~~~his girlfriend~~~ but he never had a girlfriend.
this is probably not true but I want to believe.
The running joke with my coworkers who read xkcd is that whenever he gets on a string of comics about relationships or girls or dating or whatever is when he's seeing someone, and when it falls back to more math/internet/science stuff is when he's single.

what is crazy is that 8-bit is pretty bad, but his actual comic, Atomic Robo, is pretty good.
Other than that I read:
PA
PVP
Wapsi Square (not sure why, but I can't not click on it)
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
I chose or Penny Arcade. It's two more letters than Penny Arcade, unless you just can't handle those extra millimeters.
There's a penis joke there, I know it.

They changed how they do tracking.

I heard he had a girlfriend, they broke up, she married someone else, and he wrote this creepy comic about it.
Also he drew her boob and vajayjay or something.
oh my hell greatest
The winner is clearly Penny Arcade.
awwwHAHAHAHAHA
It's like Jerk City gagged with an American history textbook.
awwwww
cry some more, the plants need water
I am pretty sure she talks with her new husband
Wee
As I often said, I came for the comic, but I stayed for the dongers
