Keenspace or bust?

I have my own little comic that has yet to be introduced to the world wide web. Until recently, it's just been a hobby, doodling away (and pain-stakingly inking) my pride and joy. Then someone said "Hey. That's good. Make a web-comic out of it." "A web comic?" I asked. "Yeah." they said. So I went to work. I toiled at it, but soon it was ready for it first showing to the unsuspecting masses. But I am not a rich man (currently I'm not even an employed man), and therefor cannot afford my own domain! Oh what to do!? So I went to geocities and said "Gimme!" and they said "Okay!", so now I have webspace (however little of it). Then I stumble across Keenspace, register, and now have to sit around for a month of my life I will never get back waiting for this Gawd-sent of a website to "hook me up".

Anyway, to the point. Should I put it up on the webspace I have, only to move to Keenspace shortly thereafter, or do I wait and put it up first on Keenspace?

A month, eh? Well, let me warn you man; this god-send of a site, excellent as it may be, won't be gettign around to you so fast. Did you read the conditions of acceptence? It will take 6 to 8 weeks, or a month-and-a-half to two months. It took them 7 weeks and 6 days to get mine ready.

I'm sorry. That was a small typo. It should read "another month" of my life (in addition to the weeks previously wasted away).

Pitching my pennies:
Do both. Use your domain/website as a stash, or archive. If any major parties, publishers et al., are interested in your work, direct them to your URL. Use Keenspace as your 'public' face.
(I'm not sure I should call this 'public', as I'm uncertain of the traffic.... On that note, am I imagining things, or was the Keenspace 'big list' last updated January 14th of this year? What happened to the wheat-v.-chaff purge that was supposed to go through?)
