Niner!

I'm updating a day early because I have a train to catch to-morrow. Also, the next comic is probably going to be a day late because I have to catch a train back.
Lately I've been hopping around DD looking at random comics, no matter genre they list themselves under. I've seen a lot of comics that are a breath of fresh air and some that, well, just aren't. At the same time I hold back from criticising because I just can't think of a tactful way to do it time after time. So, therefore, I will now use this space to share my thoughts.
1. Notebook paper is never, ever a good medium for comics. Jeeze, invest in some printer paper at least.
2. Nowadays, breaking the fourth wall should be a criminal offense.
3. Considering how sprite comics are here to stay, please try doing something fresh with them apart from taking the main characters from fondly remembered 8/16-bit franchises and attempting to conform them with the current 3-panel joke format prevalent in today's newspaper cartoons. Instead, attempt to conform them with the chaotic formats that 1920's newspaper cartoons used.
That's all for now.
