'''''Bug Martini''''' is a gag-per-day humorous webcomic written by Adam Huber, started on October 19, 2009. Bug features caricatures of cockroaches as its characters and uses those character to poke fun at a wide array of subjects. The comic touches on a wide variety of comedic material, with little pattern as to what Huber will lampoon. The comics themselves rarely have a set punchline, often instead having a joke in each panel, thus providing [[Rapid-Fire Comedy|multiple laughs per strip.]] (See [http://www.bugmartini.com/comic/pizza-delivery/ "Pizza Delivery"] for a good example).
