Hey everyone reading this,

I'd like to introduce my sprite comic real quick. It's a bit confusing, the plot isn't exactly linear, and it could be rough for new readers/critics to read.

I'm working on ways to improve my spriting cabilities moreso than my comic-making capabilities, so if you would give a little into that in your critiques, if you choose to do one, it would be much appreciated.

Comic Description:

Two mortals are alive in a world of wicked ghosts, uncanny demons, undead paranormal, and mystical creatures. Yet their path has crossed, only time will tell if they can make it through the many obstacles that await them...

Page Length:
73 Pages:
18 of which are fillers.
55 actual comic pages.

What I know I need to improve on:

-Paneling: I use Gimp 2.0 for paneling my sprite comic. I'm trying to make it look more like a manga page, or at least have that feel to it, though it is still read from left to right. I feel this is an area I could improve upon, but if you wish to, any tips with using Gimp 2.0 for paneling would help.

-Spriting Edits: I'm not the greatest sprite editer. Most of my sprites are recolors, or guest sprites from readers. I do bitmix in my comic, towards the end with the Arch-Angel Zero given to me by Rage Nakasa. Any tips of this sort would be very helpful as I plan to work with edits. My very first edit was the edit with my character Elaine, when she's in the bikini. Basically, I took Jennifer from Disgaea and a Magician and combined the two. The other edits are mostly of guest characters from readers.

-Other Areas: I have a list of things, word ballons included. Any tips with using Gimp 2.0 for word ballons rather than the word ballons I am making now with Paint. Net would help. I would like them to look more professional, so a critique in this area would also be very very helpful.

-Page Layout: I'm not a master of HTML, however I hope that new readers/critics find my page easy to use and not an eye sore. If there is anything wrong with my page, it would be much appreciated if you would let me know. Please note: I'm hosting a banner competition for my extra pages, so there are no banners/titles yet.

Thank you for reading all of this, and if you decide to do a critique thank you in advance. Any kind of feedback is appreciated. ^-^ I hope you find my comic to be an interesting read.
