I promised those in the session I&#8217;d make a list of them, but rather that put it on the conference forum, I figured this should be shared with everyone. So here is a rather mighty (although by no means definitive) list of science comics. If you know of anyone who isn&#8217;t on here, feel free to tweet me and I&#8217;ll add them.
