Comment Script

1. Not bad!

I feel that Nicky's eyes should be open all the way in the final panel, but other than that, this is an impressive comic. You're improving greatly with your writing!

True, point-blank in-your-face missile ker-launches would elicit more of an "EYOWW!!" reaction from me, than "oh dear." (Not to mention the bank customers who are about to pay dearly for Nicky's faux pas.)

Nicky needs to work on his listening skills. "Her" + "her" usually =s "girl." Even if she's a hulking, drooling, skull-faced cyborg with six-foot-wide shoulders.

Highlight: Quiet debate about who should beat up the puppy.

Lowlight: What's with all the specks in the middle of the final panel?

7. Establishing Shot

@ Luckster, Nicky is far too polite to bulge his eyes at a lady, even if she's showing her missile ker-launchers to him.

For a character that you can only do so much alteration with the mouth you work a lot of great expressions out of Extreme with those eyes and head shapes.

Great Stuff Ker-Kyle and Ker-John

I think only the robber will be the victim...

Explosions do not work that way.

10. Nitpick time!

It's a minor quibble, I know, but I really don't like how panels that are placed right next to each other (like the first three are) lose their panel borders. Is there any way that could be fixed in future comics?

Other then that, this comic is good. You're really getting into the swing of things.

This was well done. The last panel was especially artistic. How did you fade Strawberry's head so it makes the impression of a 3D room, thats quite difficult.

lol it's very very very easy.
Open any photoshop program. Then goto filter->blur on the layer want and there you go. It's like common knowledge for those who know.

13. Blarghy

An awfully tame for a scene with flying missiles. The facial expressions, background, and sound effects realllly need work.

This comic and Skadi both score major points for feminism. How often do you see a female character acting completely looney or tough or masculine?

You go girl(s)!!
