So, yeah, I almost missed it, but my next update will be # 300!

According to rkolter's calculations (in the general discussion forum "What's the average life expectancy of a keen comic"):
viewtopic.php?t=63613
that puts me ahead of the average!! huzzah!

Take a look at it and lemme know what you think, what I'm doin' good, how I could keep improving it, you know the drill.

Oh my. I love this.

Of course, I'm a yaoi fan, so you can take that as a compliment or a slight.

Colin and Allen are wonderful. If only it were true, and people really could connect so quickly with someone at a comic store! Er, as opposed to being constantly monitored by creepy, spidery guys.

The characters are entertainingly dorky, and I love the art style (although Allen's eyes look a little soulless to me o.O;; ). Plus, 300+ comics! Impressive!

Awesome work, man.
I love the art style, and as Fei mentioned, the very dorky characters.

Here's to #400! *takes a shot of coffee*

You know I read this one already. You're just bragging.

Oh, but he does do some well thought out and devised fanart!

Koalas in the family tree...honestly!

Heh heh, YAY - thanks all!

I'm glad the relationship came across nicely.

As for Allen's eyes... just like the monkey in the closet from Family Guy... He wasn't always evil!... but that's to come...

Aaaanyway, my ego has been sufficiently stroked

(hooray!), so anyone else - any criticism or things you'd like to see? And, as Phalanx was pointing out to somebody in another thread, being blunt isn't rude, it's "the essence of a good critique".

Its interesting to see how different your comic was when it first started. I read the first few of them - reminds me of some things that happened to me - skating around and being called a loser... mmmm. memories.
