Boring but Practical/Web Comics

• Parodied in this xkcd strip, when MacGyver uses a gun.
• In Sequential Art when the cast tried a tabletop wargame, Scarlet could do only The Loonie part, so Kat called her "sisters" to play with Mad Scientist Hive Mind. Two strips later it occured to Pip that Think Tank accumulates Mana, so he attacked before they can cast uber-spell wiping out his whole army. In the next strip, he lost. They simply disabled his leader, for just long enough to let their allies win the war.
• Clan of the Cats: Just how dangerous can a portal sorcerer be? The correct answer: Very.
• In Misfile, Vashiel is an angel of punishment, so he gets a Big Fucking Sword that flames and can smite evildoers in a second. His brother, Rumisiel, is a filer, so he gets a multi-filing tool, with a recorder, web access, and other things like that. Guess which one comes in handy?
• Vexxarr had the Bleen meet the Humans on neutral ground... after failing a half-assed invasion of Earth and getting their fleet kicked out of Sol system by ships using hardware reverse-engineered from the first invasion.

(A single missile random-walks into the nearest Bleen ship. The target's pieces fly apart.)
Bleen commander: ...albeit of exceedingly fine craftsmanship...
