* ''ParticleFiction'': 'A monthly comic book that just happens to be online' which passes through a variety of genres, but recurring character Ideasman takes meta-concepts literally, getting him into difficult scrapes with the fonts of his comic and walls of text.

* ''{{Webcomic/HATEFARM}}'': Absurdist, obscene and sometimes offensive humor.

* ''IrregularWebcomic'': Specifically the "Me" theme, in which [[@/{{Dmmaus}} David Morgan-Mar]] tries to be as self-referential as humanly possible.

* ''TheWayOfTheMetagamer'': Start with NoFourthWall, have your characters walk behind the panels and read each other's speech bubbles, then get them jumping out of the work entirely through {{plot hole}}s. Yeah. [[http://wayofthemetagamer.thecomicseries.com/comics/pl/32150 This example of]] InfiniteCanvas has received particular praise, as noted in the comments.

* ''Webcomic/APTComic'' http://aptcomic.smackjeeves.com/ - The adventures of a [[{{RealityWarper}} reality-warping]] [[{{CatGirl}} cat girl ]]named Ammika and her [[{{SonicTheHedgehog}} Sonic the hedgehog]] [[{{OriginalCharacter}} fan character]] sidekick Inferno, [[{{SuspiciouslySpecificDenial}} who looks nothing like Shadow.]] Along the way, they go through places like [[{{Kirby}} Dreamland]] and [[{{KeroroGunsou}} Pekopon.]] [[{{TropeOverdosed}} It's chock full of]] [[{{Tropes}} Tropes.]]

* ''{{HATEFARM}}'': Absurdist, obscene and sometimes offensive humor.

* ''TriangleAndRobert'': Long-running, now ended comic about two polygons, the fourth wall twist is that the presence of the cartoonist as narrator actually changes the nature of the world.

* ''[[Webcomic/TwoGamerz 2Gamerz]]'': A webcomic similar to VGCats but also includes anime and many internet-related topics.

[[Main/{{NoFourthWall}} No Fourth Wall]] doesn't come close to describing what the author Tailsteak has done. Including physics. Not to mention that the characters are fascinating in their own right.

* ''FredoAndPidjin'' [[http://www.pidjin.net/2007/03/12/catch-me-if-i-can/]]: Note how the old frames around the images subtly betray that the 4th wall was broken before a redesign of the website.

** Oddly enough, the actual author has said he wants to tone that down, and make it less of a 4th-wall breaking comic ... which might take another 100+ episodes (or about 2 years ... 50/50 says it'll never happen)
* ''ReelFiction'' [[http://splurd.com/comics/about.php?comic=8]]: Has 4 characters that jump from 'verse to 'verse, and are completely aware of it.

It ran from late 2000 to late 2005, and then some.
* Webcomic/TheCrossworlds: By J. Powers, featuring two former webcomic characters who are now "free" of their former existence and find themselves in The Crossworlds, the city between comics.

* [[Main/{{HelloEarthling}} hello earthling]] breaks the fourth wall for a good quarter of the jokes. It's pretty much a meta comic that's trying to be SliceOfLife, but just can't manage it without falling into the pits and perils created by the character design and style. Doubtless, if the author had given them hands, the comic would not be what it is today.
* HowNotToRunAWebcomic
