{{Infobox webcomic| | title = Doctor Fun | image = | caption = | author = David Farley | url = http://www.ibiblio.org/Dave/drfun.html | status = Updated on weekdays | began = 1993 September 24 | ended = | genre = | ratings = }} '''''Doctor Fun''''' is a webcomic by David Farley, begun on September 24, 1993. Most often compared to ''The Far Side'', ''Doctor Fun'' is a series of bizarre one-panel gags. Topics range from the mundane to the obscure—readers with interests in science are most likely to get all the jokes. ''Doctor Fun'' was the first comic on the World Wide Web (but not the first comic on the Internet: ''Where the Buffalo Roam (comic) Where the Buffalo Roam'' had a Usenet group in 1991). Its appearance was noted by the NCSA, creator of the Mosaic (web browser) Mosaic web browser, as "a major breakthrough for the Web". Farley states that he "hope[s] to be allowed to continue ''Doctor Fun'' after the superintelligent robots have taken over and made us all their slaves," or for 520 weeks. 2005 As of May 2005, the comic is in its 479th week of production (the author does take frequent breaks from publication).
