Although other comic strips may touch on, or even major in, the
technical realm, the true geek strip is "User Friendly," found online
at http://userfriendly.org/.  There are anthologies of the strips in
print, starting with "User Friendly" (cf. BKUSRFRN.RVW).

This book contains some of the earliest strips, and a few others
chosen as illustrations, but it primarily deals with the questions the
author gets about the origin of the strip and various characters. 
There are also, well, I suppose "essays" would fit, about various
subjects dear to the cartoonist's heart.

As well as a few pieces by members of the User Friendly community.

An unusual work, but, for fans of the strip, insightful and
intriguing.
