Even though it’s been running for awhile, I’ve only just discovered the webcomic “Edmund Finney’s Quest to Find the Meaning of Life.” It is amazing how many of these are actually laugh-out-loud funny.

The comic follows a very loose story that usually involves Edmund, who has already traveled far off the map, getting into one ridiculous scrape after the next. No matter how bleak things look for Edmund, he always gets out of every bad situation, but only by falling straight into the next one.

Although it’s best if you read the comics in order, I have linked to my three favorites. These are pretty representational of the art and humor, so if you don’t find these funny don’t bother with the rest of them (and possibly consider giving up on ever finding anything funny again ever.)
