Very cool... love the concept and the execution of the layout and the color.... I'm not as big a fan of the drawing, but the design and the story sucked me in :)
Thanks for all the kind words, everyone! (And thanks for even reading this thing through in the first place, it means so much.)
Liv, I debated about whether or not to use softer colors for quite some time, but ended up with this. My next comic will probably be a little less stentorian in its color approach. Maybe.
Sean R, glad you enjoyed! I'm not the biggest fan of my drawing either, but when you're working at the limits of a skill set that's only informed by having looked at a bunch of other comics, you take what you can get. I hope to improve. I am really glad you dug the layouts, however, as they are what I spend most of my "drawing time" on. Baby steps.

I like the drawing and the story, but I think some softer colors would have worked better. ;)
This is great! I'm glad I read the intro first so I understood the context.
