Web vs Newspaper Comics

Well I was looking at the comics today and saw this:
http://www.gocomics.com/foxtrot
I'm left a bit speechless by the awsomeness, I'm left soo speechless I left my normal grammar nazi boundaries and said awsomeness. XKCD and other web comics are finaly recieving the recognition by the mainstream comic media it deserves in a comic I love.

I'm fairly sure that Foxtrot is not a webcomic, it is printed in many papers, both major and local, and I do believe that is where it started, but it is quite amusing never the less

I think Renatus was talking about Webcomics like XKCD getting recognition in Print comics like Foxtrot.

But yeah, Foxtrot has been around for as long as I can remember.

And XKCD deserves a lot of recognition. XD
