The Good
You actually used good backgrounds, I was impressed by that.

You haven't used any recolors, from what I saw, anyway.

You don't resort to having crappy gags every strip.

It's apparrent you put real thought into every strip before you make it.

The Bad
The word balloons are horrible at the beginning, but they're equally bad in the recent strips. Don't use decrease the opacity on your word balloons. Are you trying to make your readers work to read your comic? Your word balloons should always remain easy to read.

The plot seems a bit stale. You're just reviewing all that's happened in Shippuuden, it seems. How about a new story with new characters? Maybe your readers are tired of Naruto and Sasuke. I know I'm getting there.

Grammar and spelling is your friend. Remember, you're making comics, so how you type does make an impression on the reader. If you're not too good with this stuff, find someone who is and ask them to review your work before finalizing it.

Conclusion
I think you have the potential of being one of the rare (and I mean rare) good sprite comic authors out there. You just need to polish your style a bit more. I would suggest you actively practice making custom sprites and even sprites from scratch at your level. It's the only way you'll improve.

But Are my latest Word Balloons ok or do they still need work?Oh and my story is Actually a bit diffrent story then in shippuuden..I know its a bit similar though,Yeah my comic gives Sasuke and Kakashi a bit too much spotlight though..I am focusing on characters like shikamaru and Neji now..and Yeah I know what you mean about Custom sprites and stuff..But I don't have enough time to do all that stuff,Because of school and etc..At Start I agree my grammar was terrible but now it has completly changed...I am talking about 100+Strips..But thanks for the Constructive Crit.Anyway...

Alright. I guess I should let you know about the good and bad about this comic.

The Good:

-It's probably one of the best naruto sprite comics I have seen on Drunkduck.
-You have taken on a little twist in the original storyline, making it better.
- I agree with Yournobody that you don't have stupid recolors and lame gags.

The Bad:

-One of the things I thought that was pretty bad about this comic was the word balloons. I know many people like to make word balloons transparent, so that it looks "fancy." But honestly, it can sort of get confusing when the text blends in with the background. Not very good contrast there.
- I agree with yournobody, again, that the story is very stale. I have mentioned it before, but i find that this comic lacks a solid plot line. I mean, it might have one from your perspective, but from some of the readers, it's not very good.
-Grammar and spelling is okay, but it needs to get better.

Conclusion:

-Your comic does have potential, but at the moment it lacks a strong storyline. It seems to be a bit repetitive (e.g)- The same, "Save Sasuke!" and, "Die Itachi!" kind of thing. So just fix that up, and please make the story better, or I might as well read the manga considering it has the same kind of storyline, but better art.

Rating:

-I'd give this a 6.5/10. It was okay, but it could use a lot of work. Sorry if the rating kind of hurts, but this is my own opinion on Naruto the Comic.

Yes. Always keep the opacity for word balloons at 100%. It doesn't matter what any random sprite comic author tells you. Low opacity in word balloons is bad.
