Nothing beats Zach's for memorability.
Randy Munroe gets definite points for multiple colours.
Chris Hastings drew well for such a canvas.
For quality and artisticness of the actual signature, I'd go with Lar DeSouza.
Difficult to pick one, as each has its points, but ultimately I like the placement and look of Lar's best.

You should definitely pick up Dinosaur Comics again, Shoe. That stuff is hilariously absurd.

I'll think about it. I loved reading it before. There's just soooo much in the archives.

You don't need to read the archives to understand it. That's the beauty of Dinosaur Comics.

I guess it's sort of an OCD thing for me - I can't fully enjoy a comic until I've read through the archives.

Seriously, start visiting it every day and just spend a few minutes going through the archives. You will have a ball. Don't go through them all in one sitting.

Easier said than done. I tried it with Joe and Monkey. You end up losing your spot. I did end up favouriting where I left off at one point, but I still have never gone back and the link is still there (it has probably been a year and a half).

I did that with A Softer World, I'm halfway through and will remain that way until the summer. Somewhere along the line I really lost the patience to sift through archives for hours.

I've actually been wondering if I've been through their archives. I'm really digging that comic since Zach linked it a few months ago. It is one of the few where I look forward to updates.
Multiplex might be the only other example of that right now.
SMBC doesn't really count because I don't really have to wait long.
Red Meat would probably still be in there too.
I've grown kind of complacent about Penny Arcade.
XKCD is still great on occasion, but I haven't loved one in quite some time, and SCP updates too infrequently.
I've ceased to care about Book of Biff, and Garfield Minus Garfield has very quickly lost its charm.
C&H can be good for a laugh, but it is really just on my comics agenda, and I wouldn't miss it, I don't think.
Joe Loves Crappy movies is fine, but nothing to look forward to.
I miss PBF terribly, I'll admit.

I've tried Dinosaur comics a few times in the past. I just can't get into it.

Try clicking the link, usually works.

I guess to each their own, Gary North is just a nut. I love how the characters often delve into deep philosophical discussions, only to end with a ridiculously absurd joke, or how God is just an crazy old nut who likes to chill and muck about. It's a tad crazy, so Iyou really have to go along for the ride to enjoy it, just like MS Paint Adventures.

Isn't LIFE a deep philosophical discussion that ends with a ridiculously absurd joke, told by a crazy old nut named GOD?
