The art doesn't look terrible, but the writing hurts my eyes. I really don't need added stress to them, and trying to read that would do that. I can make out a few strips which were all in caps. They weren't great. You need to flesh out this character. The sketchy style doesn't help, and I don't know where the focus of the comic is.

This comic is in severe need of orginization, but it could get better if you'd just smooth out some details.

hmm. well, I took an gander at this.

I'm not a fan of this style of art, but it isn't so horrible that I would scream and run away.
"keep it away from me!!" :lol:

the style seems very messy to me for some reason. too sketchish.. but then like I said, there's a lot of people who are fans of that style, so maybe it's just me.

on to the text...
well, at times it's hard to follow who's talking despite the "talk lines" pointing to the people to show who's talking. maybe speech ballons would be better?

the other part of the text is that the text looks handwritten, which is very good at times, but other times it's hard to figure out what the characters are saying.
for example, http://www.drunkduck.com/drag_them_down/index.php?p=1731 , where you're saying the girlfriend are out getting shitfaced.. the "out" looks like "oot" to me, or even a screwed up verison of "at".

just the main points I wanted to address.

Psht. I like it, and I can read his handwriting just fine. The fact that mine's probably worse may or may not have something to do with that. *grin*

Edit: Just remembered - Review forum, I'm not allowed to bash other people's reviews.

I should proably say that the majority of the words looks readable and such, but in some instances there's a few words that gets hard to read.
