I'm sorry, Sherman's Lagoon has a hammer-head shark, not a squid, and Wondermark is just strange. I liked Non-Sequitur & Brevity, though.
Here's another one:

How about the children's cartoon Sponge Bob Square Pants (or whatever it's called) that my 4 year old son watches.
I belive Mr Squidly is a squid...

Isn't this whole squid thing about played out, or is there some back story I don't know about?

I'm rather fond of Demolition Squid, at Weebls Stuff:

OFF TOPIC
Sorry, it's not squid. I *was* looking for a squid contribution, when I came across this cartoon which I feel is poingnant to recent discussions.

Beaver and Steves' '20000 leeks under the sea' has the Sausage Squid as one of the main characters:

@George Bailey: Bruce just likes squids, and tries to have a weekly squid entry.
Bruce: perhaps you could avoid these questions by renaming the blog to "Schneier on Security (and Squids)."

This is not a comic, but definitely about octopuses and quite fun (IMO):

I was a bit disappointed! I was looking for Mr. squid but he was nowhere to be seen. He is one character in Spongebob. Does it ring any bell?

The squid's name in Spongebob is Squidward Tentacles not Mr Squid or Squidly.
