Nominations are currently open for Washington Post’s Best Webcomics of 2011: Please consider nominating Blue Milk Special if you think us worthy. Does our Star Wars parody deserve a shot? We’re talking Washington Post! If we get a mention then this’ll be our first official recognition in nearly three years of making webcomics, but we can only do it with your help. You can go to Comic Riffs blog and comment or you can email him directly. See below…

Today, we begin with webcomics. In 2011, such perennials as “xkcd” and the commentary-enhanced “Pibgorn” proved as popular as ever; the history-laced “Hark! A Vagrant” and the graphical charts of “The Oatmeal” gained new fans as well as new books; “Girl Genius” (couresy of MATTHEW INMAN – The Oatmeal) repeated at the Hugo Awards; and the guys at “Penny Arcade” and “PvP” teamed for the new comic “The Trenches.”

So now we turn the stage over to you to ask: What are your nominations for your Favorite Webcomics of 2011? Feel free to e-mail them to comicriffs@washpost.com or share them in the Comments field below.

Based on your nominations, Comic Riffs will cull the finalists and conduct reader polls next month in the various comics categories.
