The Planet Hates Tomatoes! -- the best of Penny Arcade

In a recent news post over at Penny Arcade, Gabe noted that both he and Tycho were working on "best of" lists, attempting to compile their favorite strips. A normal person could resist the temptation to make his own list, but I think you know me better than that.

I present these without commentary, because they're mostly so brief that there's not much to say. I'll note that most are from the last two years, and all from 2002 or later -- they've simply gotten better with experience. And of course, it's very possible I've forgotten a few -- this list is, at best, an impression of how I feel right now. My preferences are subject to change without notice.

So then. The best twenty-five strips ever produced at Penny Arcade:
