Hey man, I dig your comic. Some of the jokes are very good and I love the way you draw your main characters... I have two recommendations... 1) Use a computer generated font, draw your word bubbles, etc, scan it and then use photoshop or paint.net or whatever to add words. it is very hard to read some of your hand-done text. Secondly, and this is a personal preference, I would like to see this comic inked and not just pencilled... again, just me but there you go. I'll keep reading either way... fun stuff (Opium? HA).

You forgot link tags.

I'd suggest making your text easier to read as some of the strips have tiny/scrunched up lettering, along with panel dividers. As a whole I like the concept and it's amusing, but does have a risk of becoming stale based upon your use of the same set up three times already (Opium, capitalism, Lolcats).

Good luck.

thanks for the comments,
I basically dont know how to use photoshop or anything much like that, as it is the cartoons are drawn out when i'm bored in school and scanned in on my bro's computer, so in the first few my writing is terrible and its all very sketchy. Im trying to improve the quality of a few of the later ones i've drawn which I'm yet to scan and upload. Tea, opium and capitalism are effectively a bit of a running joke, each time I use up an A4 sheet of cartoons I finish it with a cartoon of that set formula where I just experiment with what words to use.
Cheers for all the views and feedback
