Art change?
Mlle Germain:
My take on the art change: (Verbatim copy of what I posted in the WCDT on the art)
Hanners looks scary and ridiculous like this.
I way preferred - actually, I loved - the art style when Jeph was going for making the characters look like actual adult humans; the era ~1800-2300, especially around 2100. Since then, their heads and eyes have gotten bigger, so the characters looked more child-like again, but I still thought it was really good to pretty good (depending on the day) up until this really drastic change.
This new art change... Marigold and May are ok, but Hanners is really off in my opinion. And since she's one of my favourite characters, I'm very sad about that. I mean, just compare today's comic with this, for example - I just randomly picked one comic that had Hanners in it from the art-era I like; you can look at any of the others instead: http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2244. Or even just the one a few days ago: http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2759. For me, that's a big step backwards, sorry.
(While I'm complaining: I also by far preferred Dora and Tai in that era of comics I specified above.)
Nepiophage:
I agree with Mlle Germain 100%. i much preferred the old style especially the old Dora.
Stonewolfe:
I like this new art style. But that could be because I recently started getting into anime and stuff and it kind of reminds me of that, but with the artists own... flare for it I suppose would be the wording here.
I say keep at it, looks great to me!

Since we're all expressing opinions, I thought I'd chime in and say I liked the art style around the 1200 era.

Yeah, I really liked that style. I feel like the new style kinda aims back at the more rounded feel (compared to the pointy-chin profiles in http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2762), but goes way past rounded and softened.
