In our exhaustive analysis in the forums we found that all of the mind-blowingly insane webcomics fit neatly into five categories, which we have arranged in order of most innocuous to the very nightmares of the Devil himself. So hang onto your sanity good and tight as we tour these five circles of webcomic hell, beginning with Level 5, where we find...

Not that I'm criticizing; I wrote a horror novel about dongs , I'm not going to throw stones from that glass house. But man, there is something about webcomics as a medium that really drives people to reach their craziest potential.

A recent study by the New England Journal of Medicine found that 86 percent of all webcomic artists are, quote, "clownshit insane."

Crazy People with Good Causes

Even the simplest and most banal message can turn into a glorious display of wild-eyed madness when filtered through the spinning kaleidoscope that is the webcomic creator's mind. A perfect example is the anti-smoking comic called...

#10. Easy Breather:



"I told you my bulge has no comment!"

Sure, the 3D-rendered characters in Easy Breather are a little terrifying. And sure the comic seems a little too obsessed with the "quit smoking" thing, pretty much blaming smoking from everything from rape to the Holocaust...

...but if you read the very first episode, it seems pretty harmless. It's an innocent tale of a little girl finding some cigarettes on the beach. Curiosity gets the best of her, but luckily her wise friend is there to intervene!

Well, that's pretty common sense stuff. Now go tell Mom and Dad, kids, so a valuable lesson can be learned!

Aaaaaand they're naked.

See, this is why webcomics are a thousand times better than newspaper comics. This is why I think James Vipond, the creator of this comic, is a mad genius. A character's mother dies? Gee, what would be a nice way to make the dreary mourning scene go down better?

The answer is titties.

I assure you, the censorship was added by us. People make fun of Mr. Vipond, they call him crazy for making a comic where at utterly random times the characters' clothing vanishes into the ether. But dammit, 20 years from now that will be a staple of all entertainment. He's crazy in the way that Tesla was crazy. The world just isn't ready for his brand of genius.

We leave you to your work, James, and continue to...

Wait, do you mean that her breasts are the source of her superpower? Because it doesn't make sense to say that the breasts themselves are a... wait, you know what? That actually sort of does make sense.

"...and her sidekick is her baby, always carried in a sling and prominently (politically) suckling at her exposed breast."

Well, that seems reasonable. Let's see her in action!

Aaaand... POW! Public nudity.

I stopped and wrote down all of the questions raised by this particular strip. I wound up filling three spiral-bound notebooks. Including:

Question #1. If she's part cow, how are all of her children human?

Question #73. If the point of being a cow goddess is her superior milking ability, why just the two nipples instead of four?

Question #876. Is that a nipple on her scalp?

Her pet cause seems to be that the world will be saved, not just by breast feeding, but by breast feeding
