Top ten comics of 2008

I know there are more than 10 here, so I’m leaving it up to you to decide which of these are the best

Pick a few of your favorites, and let me know and I’ll narrow down the selection to the actual top ten. There will be a small reward for participating.

Thanks for making this site the internet’s funniest daily cartoon!

Sorbet

This cartoon caused much debate about the final spelling of the cool creamy treat which I shall choose to decline to identify how I think shall be spelled correctly.

Funy cartoon by Gabriel Utasi about the recession and eating cat food

Talking cats are funny, especially when they will eventually have to eat cat food.

Don’t try this at home kids.

Motorcycle

Being creative is as easy as combining stuff that normally isn’t.

Number one

There’s more than one reason why this is my number one cartoon. I LOL every time I see it.

6

Funny t-shirt

I’m glad people really don’t have shirts like this.

I know, I know. The report should have read, “A meteor the size of a cat is about to crash into Earth. More at 11.”

You know I’m not a religious cartoonist…

17


Funny cartoon by Gabriel Utasi about an ass that makes pants look big

Just reverse anything you know and it becomes original.

Funny cartoon by Gabriel Utasi about dying

Sometimes I have a deep, provoking thought. Then it goes away and I make a comic like this.

    My vote is for #3. Great job on all of them though.

  2. not Arantxa Sánchez Vicario says:

    wow. it’s a good sign when it’s so hard to choose. and all of these were done without the super artist glasses!!!!

    my faves:

    1. hilarious. i love a timely cartoon that holds up long after the event. and i love sherbet.

    2. your best stuff is always twistedly ironic. we laugh so we don’t cry.

    5.this is one of the cartoons that would make you a million bucks in t-shirt sales if you were at all interested in money. so sad.

    11. it takes a gift to take a phrase that you use every day and plop it into a totally different situation. this one is just stinkin’ brilliant.

    14. the best cartoons are the ones that come out of your life. i’m sorry that this stuff is happening, but it still makes me laugh.

    18 and 23. variations on the same theme, equally effective. one of those cartoons that make you laugh, then think, then laugh again. really well done.

    29. what can i say? i’m a runner. again, millions of dollars of t-shirt sales to be had.

    it’s funny, because i had just spent a half hour on comics.com reading the daily offerings. nothing amused me anywhere near as much as seeing these cartoons again.

    and i’m sure that if did the list again i’d come up with an entirely different list. they’re all that good.

    jeez, i’m sounding like a stalker. anyhow, thanks for sharing your genius over the course of the year.

  3. watterson says:

    gotta be no. 17! sometimes the simple ones are the best!

  4. bk katz Says says:

    my faves are 2, 7, 19 and 23.

    yeah, those ARE all cat cartoons. what are you implying?

  5. ah chihuahua!!! says:

    gotta be 13. really clever use of turning offensive on its head. or bottom.

    runnerup would be the 25,26,27 combo platter with their excellent political commentary. well done

  6. brett favre says:

    i gotta go with 20 and 30

  7. amanda says:

    2, 3, 5 noseless cats rock….but really I like all of them very fun read! These are just my favs… I also liked the cloud animal one…

  8. amanda says:

    17 too LOL

  9. little enrique says:

    meester ootasi? can you not include the cat mitten cartoon on the list? i laughed so hard when i saw it that milk would have shot out of my nose if my village had any milk. thank you.

  10. bubba lou says:

    28 is your most brilliant concept to date. get a large corporation to take you to court. david v. goliath. huge international exposure. website tattooed across your forehead. new jerseyer magazine, here we come!!!!!

    p.s. your best cartoon of the year was “i don’t have an opening for you.” a superb idea that’s wickedly subtle and then smacks you atop the head. i assume it was such a slam dunk for top 10 that it’s already on the list and these other nominees are just to fill out the 10.

  11. mr. immoral says:

    what about the “beer: not just for teenagers?” cartoon. that was another instant t-shirt classic. set up outside an asu game and make a million in one day.

  12. cartoon cop says:

    no. 25!!!!! even though it should say “whose” fault. harumph. but i love pie ….

  13. bubba lou says:

    no. 16!!! this one haunted me for days. more disturbing the more you think about it. excellent work!

  14. bubba lou says:

    (i hope i’m not disqualified for voting twice. please?)

  15. Dude, do you know how much cat food costs?

  16. Gabe says:

    This is really really tough but here are my choices for the top ten.

    To all who participated, you shall receive a signed print of the number one cartoon of 2008! #5

    2, 4, 5, 8, 12, 14, 17, 18, 22, 23

    I can only hope that the decision is this difficult again at the end of 2009.

  17. Tad says:

    “meester ootasi? can you not include the cat mitten cartoon on the list? i laughed so hard when i saw it that milk would have shot out of my nose if my village had any milk. thank you.”

    I think this is funnier than anything. Make a cartoon out of it, and then I’ll vote.
