Hard SF. Haaaaard SF. But silly too. Not a bunch of in-jokes based on other Science Fiction, just unabashedly technical story lines and jokes. The concept centers around a mercenary unit that travels the galaxy taking whatever job promises money, and when they're not working they still wreak havoc wherever they go. As the comic progresses, the artwork, writing, and our heros' situations improve. They move up to larger and larger ships, with ever-increasing political intrigue and plot complications, while never failing to deliver humor at the expense of either the charaters or the genre, every single day. This comic has been going since 1998, I'm not sure how I missed it until now, but there are now over a thousand comics in the archive.
