Sorry if the title is a little misleading, but it was the first thing that came to my mind.
Anyway, being comic book (and webcomic) readers, we are bound to stumble on some pretty wacky stuff. The kind of stuff that makes you wonder what was the writer/artist inhaling when he/she thought of it. And yet, pretty good stuff when you get used to it. So I was wondering, what is the wackiest comic you've read and enjoyed? what's the weirdest thing that strikes your fancy?
Personally, I'd have to say right now Chew is the weirdest, craziest and funniest thing to come to comics in a very long time. It is no surprise it comes from an indie publisher, because Marvel would never have approved an issue that revolves basically around vomiting, save of course if it happened in Deadpool. And speaking of Dis.. I mean Marvel, I really can't believe something like Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers got greenlighted. And the most amazing thing is that it is totally awesome. Way better than many books with human superheroes I've read.
ANd last but not least, this here site hosts one of the wackiest and funniest comics I've ever read, and I only wish it didn't update so sporadically: Scorch. The scene with the cook book still cracks me up.
Well, that's my share of weird stuff. What's yours?

The old Tagalog short comics are the best.
One weird storyline was about a guy who was able to cut off the tail of Satan then successfully steal it and bring it with him to the human world.
Then he got superpowers. Until it came to a point where the tail of Satan corrupted him so as he goes to hell upon death.
In the end, Satan wins. The protagonist ends up burning in hell.

I've never read it, but I have heard of something called "The Frank Book", and...well...
Just look at it.

Boys club by matt furie, it's hilarious and weird. There's places to download it online, i have no clue if this is still in print. It's also where the 'feels good man' frog comes from.

Here's a great topic about creepy comics like banana man, not safe for work at all.

Every issue of Toxic Comics I ever read...that stuff was STRANGE and twisted.

I've read a lot of pretty strange stuff. Eightball and ACME Novelty Library were pretty odd. Now that I think of it most of the stuff I've read by Fantagraphics was fairly strange. Nate Powell's books have a surreal sort of quality to them, particularly Swallow Me Whole, which is partly about living with mental illness. There's also Flaming Carrot. Too Much Coffee Man is an odd one too--briliant though.
The weirdest comic I've ever seen was Dirty Boxes-- I found the trade paperback in a used bookstore for $3.50 so I figured that it was so strange I couldn't not get it, especially for the price. Most weird comics I've read have a weird art style or weird dialogue, Dirty Boxes has a weird art style, weird layouts, weird characters and no dialogue. I liked it though, because of how well it all came together.

Marbles in My Underpants was really weird. And, like so many other things here, really twisted and NSFW.
