Your comics showed the spark of funny throughout, but almost never crossed the line to actual funniness. (Right now you're running at a 20% rate of funny.)

A lot of times you had a funny idea which just wasn't translated well into a 3-panel comic, because there was no punchline. A funny set-up is great, but if it goes nowhere, it leaves the reader without a laugh.

Also watch using emoticons as dialog or thought; when's the last time you said or thought ";_;"? The characters are limited in what they can do but try to work within the limitations instead of hacking it. Part of comics is looking at the pictures, after all.

Anyway, the following four represent the 20% of your comics that were good. (I only posted the one "Internet Cooldudes" comic, although I liked 'em both.)

Your "Internet Cooldudes" comics ring so true... note the 3rd panel, Captain_Sattelite. ;>

The skull comics (although none were funny besides this one) are very Max-Cannon-esque.

This one started funny, but blew its wad halfway through and degenerated into the comic equivalent of penguin poop.

Maybe I'm just a simpleton, but I found some of those comics to be hilarious.

Like the phone that decided it was a pimp daddy. I think that's the first time I've seen a sub-plot in a strip.

The skull comics were great-tastic too, especially the one about the dog and the bus.

I'll agree with Not_Scyess on the Internet Cooldudes strip. Too true.

Also, I liked the first one, I didn't get the punchline, but I tought it was funny when the little girl ordered the tentacle to ram her. IT wasn't witty or anything, just kinda funny in a "last thing I expected" way.

Thanks for the replies guys. I haven't been able to make a new comic since the last bunch, though, which even I admit were awful. -___-;;;
