Lotus Cobra is Evil is a yonkoma Webcomic by Sixten about all sorts of aspects of Magic: The Gathering. It was originally centered around the adventures of planeswalkers Nissa Revane and Sorin Markov, but has since expanded into strips poking fun at cards, characters, or Magic personalities.
Notable for having high amounts of moe and random crossovers from characters from other works. Can be found at MTG Color Pie
or on the author’s blog.
Or all of them, at the 10th Anniversary Collection on imgur.
