Comics are a series of images that, when combined with text (placed in "bubbles"), create a narrative. Classic comics include "Superman", "X-Men", and "Andy Capp". These days, many comics appear on the internet, and among those, a few are about video games. Most of them are about two dudes, fictionalized stand-ins for the creator(s) only cooler and more likable. One of them is Ctrl+Alt+Del, in which the aforementioned stand-ins work in a video game store and make humorous comments about the games they sell and play. If you like video games, and sets of two dudes, you will probably enjoy Ctrl+Alt+Del.

From Quadgames, in Shockwave.

Well, I still think Santa's bonkers -- and the people and pets around him. This is no way to run an airline!
Check out another bag of silliness, sites that put the season into play.

All the Video Games, Most of the Jokes, Less Inside Baseball
The legendary and mind-bogglingly successful Penny Arcade has long been a stable of the hardcore gamer's entertainment diet. But speaking as someone who does play games, sometimes the strip's subject matter can get extremely specific and inscrutable for all but the hardestcore. If you want a more populist gaming comic with a very (suspiciously?) similar art style and two male leads, check out our profile of Virtual Shackles. It's not as consistently funny as Penny Arcade, but has many more jokes that you can understand without attending a half dozen major trade conferences a year.
