9	* ''Webcomic/AwfulHospital'' contains, among other hams of substantial size, mortician [[PunnyName E.M. Balmer]].
10	--> ''[about Doctor Phage]'' That dashing NINCOMPOOP? HARUMPH! HARUMPH is what I say to that! If it only had ''ambition'' in its [[{{Tsundere}} irresistible]] head, we would have achieved [[DoubleEntendre zonal amalgamation]] ''[[{{Microts}} cubeoids]]'' ago! Imbecile! What business does that short-sighted fool have being so ''attractive!?''
11	* Leodegrance from ''Webcomic/TheBugPond''.
12	* [[Webcomic/TheChallengesOfZona Yatta-ta! The greatest swordsman in all Kivallia!]]. Although he just might be.
13	* Coach Gordon in ''Webcomic/DearChildren'' has this in spades. He has seemingly no indoor voice and yells out whatever thought he has, whether it be yelling at students entering the school or claiming one of the main characters watches hentai.
14	* ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive''
15	** Mr. Verres [[http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-11-26 gets his moment]], even if only for one panel.
16	** The [[https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/pizza-02 constantly yelling]] Kitty and [[https://www.egscomics.com/egsnp/pizza-03 melodramatic]] Ashley in the EGSNP story "Pizza" (an out-of-continuity thing using AnimatedActors).
17	* The main character of ''Webcomic/EverydayHeroes''. "Who am I? ... I [[strike:ham]] am [[http://eheroes.smackjeeves.com/comics/1888385/dramatic-entrance/ MISTER MIGHTY!"]] [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] [[http://eheroes.smackjeeves.com/comics/1923209/no-return/ here]] when his wife doesn't join in the hamfest.
18	* Car Hayne the hyena from ''Fur Piled'': http://www.liondogworks.com/fur-piled/en/109 Yes, ham can come in the form of comics, too.
19	* The universe of ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' is a WorldOfHam:
20	** OTHAR TRYGGVASSEN, GentlemanAdventurer! fits this, especially in the radio play, as {{lampshaded}} [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070928 in this comic]] (of a radio play). Othar has been "kidnapped" by Ferretina, the Weasel Queen, famous for devouring young men, grilled with cheese. One of the closing questions is "And what kind of cheese goes best with grilled ham?"
21	*** Pushed even further into the zone of absolute hamminess by Cheyenne Wright portraying Othar in the audio plays.
22	** Ferretina herself qualifies.
23	---> "I think it's the loneliness that makes a...person begin to have...strange thoughts. Thoughts that drive her to explore the twisted, ''blasphemous'' back alleys of science. That allows - no - '''forces''' her to create '''monstrosities!''' Monstrosities fit only to unleash upon those sanctimonious villagers who reviled and '''mocked''' her because of her father's experiments!"
24	** Hamminess and ChewingTheScenery seem to be a consistent side effect of [[ScienceRelatedMemeticDisorder the Spark]]. Othar and Ferretina are just the ones who do it when they ''aren't'' going off on a MadScientist rant.
25	** The Jagermonsters have tendencies that way as well.
26	--->"Ve kin only redeem ourselfs vit honourable death!"
27	--->"Yez, svift, ''painful,'' honourable death!"
28	--->"Hyu knife, brodder!"
29	--->"Right here, brodder!"
30	--->"sigh Ve didn't gets ''caught,'' hyu ''eediots."''
31	--->"Whew!"
32	** The as-yet-unnamed doctor who shows up [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110525 here]], escorted by copious lampshading and enough chewed scenery to put the carpenter's kids through college.
33	** Agatha herself [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20110608 knows how to set the right tone]] when addressing unruly minions.
34	* Dr. Disaster from ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt''. He starts hamming it up with [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=168 his very first lines]]: "'''Spacemonauts!''' The '''Earth''' is '''in peril'''!" It's unclear whether he's like this all the time, or just acting. Ironically, he has a crush on Jones, the resident [[TheStoic Stoic.]]
35	** Parley [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=390 knows]] how important it is to put up a good show (later, Mort joins too).
36	* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''[='=]s [[{{Munchkin}} Vriska]], a fact which Karkat {{lampshades}} in the ''[[http://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/f8ababf5e077e0fc05bacb3acad2a4b7 AlterniaBound]]'' flash by effortlessly predicting her next lines without having any PsychicPowers at all. (Initiate a conversation with Vriska as Karkat to see this).
37	** Of course, [[{{Deuteragonist}} Karkat]] is also prone to overdramatics, especially when angry. See [[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004528 his first conversation with John]] (from his perspective).
38	** [[BlindSeer Terezi]] has a ''lot'' of fun acting as a [[AmoralAttorney Legislacerator]].
39	** [[TheHero John]] greatly enjoys (over)acting out scenes from [[Film/ConAir his favorite movie]], [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003831 much to Karkat's dismay]] (spoilers).
40	** [[AuthorAvatar Hussie himself]]. After all, he [[IncomingHam doesn't just]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003578 draw Homestuck...]]
41	** Then there's Latula, an absurdly over-the-top TotallyRadical GamerGirl. In a mild {{Deconstruction}}, both Porrim and Karkat think that it's [[ObfuscatingStupidity an act]].
42	** Jake, despite his love for adventure and his tendency for AntiquatedLinguistics, doesn't ham it up all that much until [[spoiler:Aranea "heals" his mind so that he reaches his ultimate form, which regularly bellows AntiquatedLinguistics in large, glowing, flaming letters]].
43	** Villains such as [[PsychopathicManchild Caliborn]] and [[MonsterClown sober!Gamzee]] have their fair share of ham, too, and often to a terrifying degree.
44	* ''Webcomic/TheInexplicableAdventuresOfBob'' has Galatea ("CRAZY? YOU DARE?! ALL THE WORLD IS MAD AND ONLY I AM SANE!!") and Riboflavin ("I SAID BOW, YOU HALF-SENTIENT LEMUR!"). Galatea has a big crush on Riboflavin at one point.
45	* ''Webcomic/KeychainOfCreation'' has Nova.
46	--> "I am '''[[http://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0128.html THE ELEGANT NOVA OF PROGRESSION!]]'''"
47	--> "'''[[http://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0137.html SCIENCE!!!]]'''"
48	* Rocky from ''Webcomic/{{Lackadaisy}}'' is a bit of an odd duck, and one of the ways in which this manifests is difficulty with the concept of an indoor voice and a near-complete lack of a sense of subtlety. It's not a particularly useful trait in a ''bootlegger''.
49	-->'''Rocky:''' I don't want to have to leave again! THEY TOLERATE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
50	* "I am [[Webcomic/LookingForGroup RICHARD]]! Chief Warlock of the Brothers of Darkness! Lord of the Thirteen Hells! Master of the Bones! Emperor of the Black! Lord of the Undead![[labelnote:*]]And later Lord of the Dance and [[SheIsTheKing Mistress of Magma]].[[/labelnote]] [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and mayor of a little village up the coast. It's very scenic during the springtime, you should visit sometime.]]"
51	* ''Webcomic/MaxOveracts'' is about an 8-year-old boy named Max who is, essentially, the physical embodiment of this trope. ([[http://occasionalcomics.com/79/latest-comic-2/ "Get Me The Louvre! We Must Vitamin-Enrich Their Permanent Collection!"]])
52	* ''Webcomic/{{Misfile}}:'' New KnightTemplar Xaphrael makes his entrance in [[http://www.misfile.com/?date=2008-08-13 this strip]]. "That voice, it's a [[OurAngelsAreDifferent Large Angelic Ham]]!" And the Whole CrypticConversation that follows it.
53	* [[Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick Xykon and, to a lesser degree, Lord Shojo]], appear to be enjoying themselves a little more than is entirely healthy. [[spoiler: Both of them being dead and all.]]
54	** '''Elan:''' "Dun dun DUNNH!"
55	** Belkar Bitterleaf would like to remind everyone that he is a [[MemeticMutation SEXY SHOELESS GOD OF WAR!]]
56	* ''Webcomic/{{Paranatural}}'' is a WorldOfHam, aided by Zack Morrison's amazing gift for ridiculous facial expressions, but some pork products stand out:
57	** Mr Spender. His hobby is giving dramatic monologues while facing away from people, which just means that they can't actually hear him. At one point he harvests the light glinting on his sunglasses to use as throwing stars.
58	--->'''Max:''' Oh god it ''is'' Spender. Oh god he's driving in SunglassesAtNight. ''Oh god he's wearing driving gloves''
59	** Ed, who prides himself on being quirky and outgoing, occasionally steps sideways into over-the-top drama.
60	--->'''Ed:''' She's...she's...[[MundaneMadeAwesome CHANGING THE SUBJECT]]!
61	** Hijack loves him some dramatic monologuing.
62	--->'''Hijack:''' I was born strong, so I can quell their senseless violence with violence of my own. I can wield the ''true'' power of v-\
63	'''Max:''' Oh the ''true power of violence'' look at me I'm a floating eggplant with a belief system. [[BigShutUp SHUT UP]]
64	* '''Bud Oven''' from ''WebComic/{{Precocious}}''. [[http://www.precociouscomic.com/archive/comic/2010/12/18]] LargeHam is his normal method of speaking.
65	* Princess Luna of ''Blog/SliceOfLife'', just like her cartoon counterpart. Doubly so when she puts on her Nightmare Moon costume for [[HalloweenEpisode Nightmare Night]].
66	-->'''Princess Luna:''' "Why, you miniature RAPSCALLIONS! I shall have to have a word with your parents AT ONCE about this unethical behavior!"
67	* The title character of ''Webcomic/{{Selkie}}'' has a flair for the overdramatic, as can be expected from a kid who aspires to be a MadScientist. For example, when asked what happened on her trip with her dad:
68	-->'''Selkie:''' DRAMA! Drama most fouls! A forsakens lands! A lost peoples!
69	-->'''Todd:''' Selkie, dial it back.
70	-->'''Selkie:''' A mighty beast fells upons me! The lands dids quakes at its passing! The sky openeds! The angels wepts! A single tear fells upons Jerusalem!
71	-->'''All:''' Dial it back.
72	* Webcomic/{{Snowflame}} retains this in the {{Fan Webcomic\|s}} of the [[http://www.snowflamecomic.com/ same name]]. Seven Words:
73	-->"I work for no one but Cocaine!"
74	* Dillon, the title character of ''Webcomic/StickyDillyBuns'', appears to be a competent professional actor in-universe. However, he's prone to {{camp\|Gay}}ness and flamboyant emoting, on and off stage, at least verging on ham.
75	* Petalklunk's AuthorAvatar in ''Webcomic/TragicDeaths''.
76	* ''Webcomic/TwiceBlessed'' has Cade Masters, [[http://www.twiceblessedcomic.com/?webcomic_post=9 ADVENTURER EXTRAORDINAIRE!]]
