I think you're doing a pretty good job just putting out comics and making them interesting enough to read. I think you need to push the jokes a little more really. I also think you would benefit from looking at some anatomy books, I think that with your style, the characters look good, but I think that they could look better, even if it is more catoony. I think that you could also really work on expressions. When your characters get hit or laugh or imagine, they need to look like they're doing what they're doing, The very fist page it looks like walter is excited that somebody is breaking into his house. Or at least happy about it.
Keep it up though.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, I really appreciate it. I'm definitely trying to improve my art all around (and think that I am little by little), but its helpful to hear specifics on what needs improvement. Same goes for the writing, really. Thanks again.

Of course! There is no way you can do anything like a comic and not get better over time! Some people can grasp art or writing easier than others, but for the most part it is just practice and working hard. Getting feedback is the best way to know your weaknesses and try to focus on them.
A lot of professional webcomic artists were kind enough to give me feedback when I asked, like John Allison, Chris Hastings, Zach Wiener, they're all super nice and pretty prompt on getting back to me. I think there are a few who I asked who are pretty busy or get so many e-mails they can't always do it, but it doesn't hurt to ask, if they can they can and if not it's ok! Their opinions are also worth a bit more than mine cause they can give feedback based on what they have tried and has been successful for them.

Oh yeah, Prickofdestiny, I was gonna say that all that white around your comic is kinda distracting. You have such a gray site that the white pops too much, then takes away from the comic.
John Allison of SGR gave me that tip when my comic had big white boarders too. I was just hoping to pass it on! :{D

So what do you think I should do? Should I make the margins grey?
