I find that sci-fi is an excellent blend of story telling and social commentary. So does anybody know any good sci-fi Web comics? Hell, post links to your own if you want!

Derelict
Dresden Codak
Powernap
O Human Star
Quantum Vibe
Space-Mullet!
Spacetrawler
A Mad Tea Party (there's other stuff on this site, but this story is sci-fi)
TUNE

And probably a few more that escape me at the moment and others I'm not sure qualify so they're left out.
Mine isn't sci-fi (so you can ignore the signature at the bottom), though I would like to try my hand at the genre eventually.

I'd add to that list with three from my RSS feeds:

Station V3
Legostar Galactica
El Goonish Shive

And a cheeky inclusion of Commander Cottontail, which is set on space station and has aliens and time travel, so probably counts. Smile

Edit: I suppose Gilbert and the Grim Rabbit also counts to some extent.

SF is my genre and I adore it. Which flavor do you prefer?

Post-apocolyptic: Spine, What It Takes, and the now-finished FreakAngels.

Space-based: Schlock Mercenary, Runners (not currently updating, but totally worth it), Galaxion, Dicebox, Free Mars, Outsider, the now-finished Hunter's Moon, Drive, Riven Sol, and of course the other, finished Foglio comic, Buck Godot.

Cyberpunk: A Girl and Her Fed. Also Cetiya, which is sort of fantasy but has always scratched my cyberpunk itch, so that's what I call it.

Borderline stuff: Templar, AZ is alt-history, so I'm calling it sf for the purposes of promotion. And Skin Horse is... um... well, it's Skin Horse.

So, by the way, I really like SF comics.

And yes, the comic in the sig line is also SF, if you can handle the crappy art....

Ooh I hadn't known about Space-Mullet, that's really nice looking.

A couple I like that haven't been mentioned--neither is still updating though:

Nine Planets Without Intelligent Life

Mannie Marine (animated episodes)

EDIT:

Oh! Also Astray3 has gorgeous art...but also seems to have stopped updating. :|

Yep, definitely forgot some.

@smbhax.com - Nine Planets has ended but the guy's doing a different sci-fi comic now - Opplopolis.

It does seem like a lot of promising sci-fi comics disappear! Sad

But maybe it just seems that way to me because it's a genre I notice more.

Another nice one, which has a somewhat erratic update schedule, is Our Intrepid Crew. Also, have a look at The End and Valkyrie Squadron.

Ooh! :)

Ah and there's also the pretty-far-out The Big Crunch.

If I had to pick a single genre for Zombie Ranch, it'd be science fiction, and when I did a reader poll about the topic way back when, the majority agreed. Now as to whether it's good science fiction or not, I'd be hopelessly biased.

There's one about spacegirls that I've heard of. The name escapes me right now.

Ahem.

Heh, I used to run one... some years ago. It was called 'Synthetic Life'. Not sure if I was very good at it... I don't plan on bringing it back tho... There are too many comics with the same theme out there right now. :\ So, yeah.

If I were to list a comic: I really like this one: Fallout Toyworks. If it's not what you're looking for, at least I tried. Very Happy
