As you might have realized up to this point I am into all kinds of geeky stuff and as such I'm also a comic fan. Most of you probably know Superman, Batman, Spider-man and the rest of the DC - Marvel universe. Nowadays comics are not exclusively released in traditional comic books anymore but you can read a lot of them on the internet by now.
Of course you have your traditional web-comics like Penny Arcade, HijiNKS ENSUE, Ctral+Alt+Del or Reallife comics but in the last few years a lot of Tv shows started to publish tie-ins on the web.
The popular scifi-drama Heroes is publishing small web-comics to show you different perspectives of their show. It is also used to keep the fans interested during the summer break. The stories are intense and the artwork is also exceptional and have been such a success that they are now released as paperback comic books.
All of Joss Whedon's shows (Buffy the vampire slayer, Angel and Firefly) are currently continued in comic book form. Buffy's season 8 has already developed over several magazines and it's a great way for the fans to find out what happened to the gang from Sunnydale after the impressive series finale in 2003.
The popular CW show Supernatural has also released several comic books that tell the story of the two protagonists' childhood.
