The A.V. Club is an entertainment newspaper and website published by The Onion. It comes included with the print editions of The Onion, and maintains its own separate website. Unlike its parent publication, The A.V. Club is non-satirical. Nonetheless, it strives for a humorous tone. It reviews newly released films, books, comics, music, DVDs and video games, publishes an array of regular features and includes its own crossword puzzle. The online version of the A.V. Club, in addition to the regular articles, features the comic strip Red Meat and the syndicated sex- and relationship-advice column Savage Love by Dan Savage. Though Savage Love and Red Meat may be found in some of the print incarnations of The A.V. Club they are absent from others, usually as a result of their having been syndicated by other publications prior to The A.V. Club’s arrival in these cities.

The A.V. Club, as bundled with The Onion, is distributed in print form, free of charge, in Madison, Milwaukee, New York City, Chicago, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Denver/Boulder, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Austin, and Washington, D.C.. Following a recent redesign, the eight print versions of The A.V. Club have subsections called A.V. [City] (e.g., A.V. Milwaukee) that include comprehensive event previews, regular features, and dining guides. This section also features regular special issues with even more content (e.g. “Summer Concert Guides”). The print redesign also saw the addition of more comics, including a strip called Postage Stamp Comics by Too Much Coffee Man creator Shannon Wheeler, and “Wondermark” by David Malki. More additions are planned for the near future.
