"save it for later" is my favorite so far. It's cynical even by my standards, but the punchline is great. The other two don't do a whole lot for me, but they're not terrible.

When you let your panels get stretched like that, it really detracts from an otherwise good strip. Try to work on some techniques for reducing the amount of space your dialogue takes up. Eliminating unnecessary words helps. Using shorter words helps not only because it reduces letter count, but also because you're likely to be able to fit more of them on each line. Another option is to include a second character and split the text up into a dialogue, as long as it still makes sense. Alternately, some people keep the single character but put underscores_between_some_groups_of_words, because they form one long line which stretches the speech box sideways. I think you can use an [u] [/u] instead of an underscore, but I've never actually tried it. Experiment and find out what works for you.

Congrats on getting comic 58k, anyway. Christ, is it that time already? 60k will soon be here. Better break out the Red Bull and get ready for an all-night SC session.

The third one was a bit of a letdown, I'm sad to say. Strip Creator needs more political cartoons, and those first two of yours are excellent. The third one was okay, as far as strips about sex with small furry animals go, but it is way below the standard of its predecessors. Please do more sociopolitical stuff, you're good at it.

Acutually my thoughts are the opposite of my "clone" I loved your 3rd one, and the first two were not so great, but good for a starter. Compared to mine, they're brilliant.

Just read your 4th comic and laughed loudly, though whether this was because of the comic alone, or my image of a squirrel basket weaving, I don't know.

i could hold you and tell you everything's going to be alright, but you'd know it was a lie. if your needs require that someone smash you in the testicles repeatedly with a stick, I'd be more than happy to help...

If there's anything funnier than watching 2 newbies bitch about each other, I haven't seen it.

...see something funnier, that is. Damn, that would have come off a lot better if I'd posted it a few seconds sooner. *sigh*
