Haha yeah, that one was pretty good.  I read Achewood on a regular basis.  My favorite ones are where they reenact movie scenes while standing on those Roomba floor vacuums.

It's amusing, but the lack of punctuation in the bubbles completely kills it for me as I can't always follow the sentence. Buh.

That's only specifically for Roast Beef though.  It's meant to capture the tone of his voice and the method of speech.

What exactly about these do you find funny?  Because apparently I'm not seeing it.

The first one was funny, but I agree that the Roomba ones didn't really do anything for me.

Achewood humor is definitely an acquired sort of thing.

I did laugh at the last frame of the first roomba comic.  It was hard not to.

A lot of Achewood is subtle, but then you have gems like this:

Ray's definitely the best character in the comic.

Well that obviously didn't work out like I had hoped.
