Happy holiday weekend - and Noblegarden, of course. This week's selection is pretty varied, although there are no newcomers this week. Only you can change this. Send us tips! Also, let everyone know if I missed an updated comic in the comments section. It happens.

Thanks to everyone who posted various comic archives last week for the perusal of those who hadn't heard of them.

For next week's challenge: What percentage of the comics listed will be about Noblegarden? Guess. Predict the future.

Challenge #2: I'll add a second one, since the first one is pretty... well, based in nothing. Whose artwork really struck you this week, and why?

I've been laid up all week with a nasty case of the flu.

Fortunately, I think I have managed to avoid passing it on to anyone by staying indoors and suffering in silence. Here's hoping that all of your weekends have been better!

We have a couple of new comics to add to the list this week, as well as some updates from comics that only refresh sporadically. What do you guys think about the newbies?

To compensate for my lack of trivia inspiration this week, I shall send everyone "flu immunity" vibes. That has to be at least as good, right?

You'll also be happy to note that Battlemasters is back! Zack, coincidentally, had the flu a couple of weeks ago. Isn't spring wonderful?

Last week's trivia challenge produced several great answers, although no one guessed what I had been thinking about; My Pet Monster! Still, that was only worth bonus points. Thanks to shadowQQ for guessing Bull from Where the Wild Things Are, and Correlation and Undra for guessing Sully from Monsters, Inc.

The other bonus trivia question was of the "one of these things is not like the other" type, and Noekh was the winner; all of the items were something that Canada is known for. Cartmensfoe also gets points for noticing that everything included in the list was edible. Apologies for forgetting to exclude the elephant shrews wearing berets with the ascots and toast. That probably confused a few people.

As for your virtual and imaginary prizes, you have all earned robots that know how to do laundry (although they are known for their laziness), bottles of detangling spray that are rumored to bring good luck when used, magical and unpredictable pink highlighters, and a lifetime supply of butterscotch-flavored gum that will help you see the future.

Alas, this week's list is merely an average size. What does that mean? Many artists are busy, away, injured, or have websites that aren't working. Fortunately for us, there are some really great comics this week to make up for the loss of bulk.

As for last week's trivia, GI_Prophet wins with 'American Psycho.' Hex will share the glory for recommending the book. You both win a virtual and imaginary lifetime supply of custom business cards, which happen to taste like jelly beans. They're non-toxic, don't worry.

This week's trivia question is: What is being referenced in LFG's comic #332? I will accept several answers, so feel free to be creative. Of course, the prizes aren't real, but there's always the glory, right?

As always, I'm taking tips. Have you seen a WoW-related webcomic not listed here? Has an older such comic been reactivated?

Drop a note and a link in the comments section, or respond by sending a tip to the site's main tipline.

This week's list is huge. Massive. You have to click through the break to even see it! But I warn you: before you do, you might want to make some preparations.

Cancel whatever you have scheduled today.

Make a pot of coffee.

Do some stretches; long bouts of sitting are unhealthy.

Feed the cats. Let the dog out.

Seriously, this list is big. It's unruly!

P.S. I tried to get you guys a good Long Cat picture but I failed you all. Maybe next time? Yes. Next time.

In a related note, I have a distaste for the new way to search through the icanhascheezburger site.

Ready? Set. Go!

Last week's post included a whole slew of commenter tips about WoW-related comic strips, so in addition to reading through your favorites, check out some of these newcomers:

• The latest from Torment of the Week. My main comment here would be: WTB perma-links.
• Here is one from Real Life Comics that is about Diablo 2, but I'll include it because it is also about Blizzard's patching habits.
• GRATS! The De-Evolution of the Quest. I love how game issues are discussed beneath the comic. I also love how the old guy is a dead ringer for Disney's Jafar from the first Aladdin movie when he pretends to be a prisoner in order to convince Aladdin to go into the cave and retrieve the lamp.
• The Battlemasters: Guilded Butterflies.
• Here's a new one: Guilded Age. Start reading from the title page, and next week I'll start posting the updates.
• Working Daze also recently posted two WoW-related comics, including one about patch day.
• Teh Gladiators: They're A Hungry Bunch.
• Da!ly Quests: Goblin Ingenuity. This is exactly what I thought when I first read Allison's The single greatest thing that has ever happened in this game.
• Dark Legacy Comics: Ammunition.
• NPC: Cuddle Cats. That one isn't entirely WoW-related but it rocks, and it does tie into their alt leveling, as well as the next storyline. Declaration.
• NPC: Intervention Cats.
• Beyond the Tree: Chekov's Gunmen.
• LFG #313 and #314.
• NoObz: Ninth Commantment.
• Slash AFK: Fish Pwned.
• Check out Complex Actions #44: Swimsuit Edition by going to their main page.

Juice really shouldn't be warm; but doesn't M just look so happy? It almost makes it okay, although that's primarily because it's not my juice.

• The Scout Report: #88, Scout is back to being Scout! Well, sort of. #89, and I'm trying not to imagine the sprocket party too.
• NPC: Breaking News. This totally ruins our next April Fools Day! Sensibilities. I'm jealous of your turkey pet, for I was tragically unable to participate. Special.
• Teh Gladiators: T-t-t-eee?
• Dark Legacy Comics: Crappy Table.
• Da!ly Quests: Revenge is Sweet.
• LFG #309 and #310.

• Battlemasters: Old Flames. Such a Womanizer!
• WoW eh: Need More Rage. Love this one! Well, I love them every week.
• Cru the Dwarf: Turkey Filler 2009. I have to say, that as far as filler goes, this is pretty premium, and got me laughing.
• Experience Points: Easier.
• NoObz: Seventh Commandment.
• Newish Fail Druid!
• The Adventures of Disgraph T. Dwarf: They See Me Rulin' They Hatin'. But what about the silly hair Dan?
• GU Comics: Aces Over Threes.

All I can say is, "Mmm, gnome brain."

• Dark Legacy Comics: Gnome Brain.
• Teh Gladiators: They Come to Disturb Our Peace.
• NPC: Asil's Question. Kitties never learn though do they? Appreciation. I especially love this next one: Ahem.

• Dungeons and Draenei: 2012 WoW.
• Beyond the Tree: An Unfriendly Reception.

• WoW eh: What Have You Done.
• Battlemasters: A Fine Mess.

This week, we have a quiz and a new comic to enjoy, along with updates from many of your favorites.

• NoObz: Fifth Commandment. This one feels unfinished to me.

Happy Thanksgiving weekend Canada! As for everyone else, well, you can enjoy the comics knowing that soon enough, you too will be feasting and we Canucks will have to hear about it. And watch all those mouth-watering food commercials.

• Daily Quests: A Simple Re-Quest.
• Battlemasters: You...I Remember You. This fairly new and awesome comic is still settling into its own artistic groove; something that was interrupted when Zach was separated with his art supplies. Now that he has replaced some of them, we can settle in and watch the two artists refine this comic's style.
• Dark Legacy Comics: Mr. VanCleef.
• LFG #294: This one reminds me vaguely of that Alien Ant Farm song, Happy Death Day.
• Teh Gladiators: Brewmaster's Revenge.

• NPC: Choose Your Butt. Careful; Cadychan draws a pretty nice cow butt!
  
• NPC: Noob Unleashed. She doesn't quite have the terminology down, but she seems to be settling in.
• Happy Belated Birthday, WoW, eh! Do You KNOW How Much Mats Cost These Days?!
• Beyond the Tree: Gryan the Fierce.
• Cru the Dwarf: Adieu. She really likes to give that Chapeau away.
• The Scout Report: Scout reflects on her situation. Fortunately, she meets someone interesting, although perhaps not in the way that she thinks.
• The Scout Report: All is revealed!

• Battlemasters: Blast from the Past. I love how much supplementary material is given with this comic.

• Ctrl+Alt+Del: More sillies. This one is sans Fail-Druid.
• This one contains Fail-Druid!

• NPC: Stupid Game and On Your Side. I see a Zhevra incoming!
• Kuo: Smashed.
