In honor of hitting 100,000 hits over here on 1979 Semi-Finalist I’m going to steal an idea from my friend Holly over at Beyond The Air.  Holly did a great “Best Of Post” a little while ago that inspired me to revisit the comics I have really loved over Rabid Lamb’s brief year long-ish history, in honor of my 100,000 Hit-0-versary.  As usual with lists I do it half in the hope it will re-inspire me to draw more comics and half just because I love me some lists.  So here goes…the Top 15 Rabid Lamb Comics…as picked by yours truly.  Below the jump, I also list the Top 5 Rabid Lamb Comics, based solely on hit numbers…it’s an interesting difference. And at the very bottom…1979 Semi-Finalist’s first ever POLL!

15.  Rabid Lamb Comic #063. I hate the drawing in this one, but LOVE the gag.  You see, it’s funny because it’s true.

14.  Rabid Lamb Comic #155. This is the first comic in a short series about Adam with a deer head.  Adam is largely responsible for this bit and it’s great.

13.  Rabid Lamb Comic #156.  The conclusion to #155 – great stuff!

12.  Rabid Lamb Comics #157.  A little riff on the previous “deer head” strip.

11.  Rabid Lamb Comic #158. The end of that little “deer strip” – which was some of the most fun I had with Rabid Lamb – and which I don’t despise the drawing on…except panel two of this strip (just terrible!).

10.  Rabid Lamb Comic #085.  There’s something about the simplicity of this one that always loved…that and the fact that it’s an actual conversation…pretty much word for word.  Those tend to be some of my favorites.

9.  Rabid Lamb Comic #     – Guest Artist Adam Greene. This probably deserves to be higher than #9 on the list…Adam’s cartooning is so far above mine it’s ridiculous.  I will say that he took forever to draw this and at the time I was doing five strips a week…we can’t all be michaelfreakingangelo when posting five strips a week and working full time…can we Adam?  But I LOVE everything about this.

8.  Rabid Lamb Comic #124. The only strip to make my list and the “Top 5 Readers List”.  I loved drawing the Adam and Kelly stick figures, if only because it helped the creativity and allowed the strip to become something more than a journal comic….which when you live the boring life I do gets very old very fast.  Panel #4 is one of my favorite panels of all time – the expression and dialogue are just dead on.
