I've been trying to click it, especially knowing a date comic is up now or soon, and curious to see if it's my turn.

Unfortunately, keenspace no-worky. :(

Yeah, I went and tried to read some after posting but had very little luck getting through the archives.

Letting someone else tear it apart would likely put me in writers/drawers block for a year.
Don't worry, I'm into reviews so I can learn from others mistakes

I would really love to have people notice the strip...honestly...good review or bad just so long as someone goes "huh...I wonder what the fuck they were talking about "characters traced from a Bloom County Collection"....

Reviews are great. I've previously used them to (hopefully) better my comic and work on a few of the negative points mentioned.
Seriously, for everyone who's scared of being reviewed, don't be, it's a useful experience that helps you to develop.

I showed your comic to a friend saying my character would be in the date part sooner or later...and his first comment was "Doonesbury, much?" then a second elapsed and he said "Oh...and I see Bloom County too".

Seeing as how I've never seen nor heard of Bloom County till you said your style rips it off....I never noticed. :P
Caught in the headlamp glare of your own blinding vanity/Mesmerised by the stare of your shallow personality
Gorging the junk food of flattery you drag your fat ego around/Everyone floored by the battering you give to whoever's around
Oh Narcissus you petulant child admiring yourself in the curve of my eyes/Oh Narcissus you angel beguiled unsated by self you do nothing but die

I don't think many people here will 'freak out' when their playful poking is taken seriously. They just tend to go 'look at that goog!' and point.

Well, you know, it's not like there's any Bloom County to read now, and Opus is a waste of ink and time, so it's kinda nice to have a new strip that is both enjoyable and reminiscent of the good old days. Sir, I salute you.

Hey, I actually really liked those reviews. It's a great concept.

*wanders in, wondering why the hell I didn't find this thread sooner*

Hmm, well, here's some other webcomic review sites I know of:

Comixpedia
The Official Time Waster's Guide

Tangent- I've been checking out your site. Pretty interesting, I'd have to say.

And korsil=teh rock. 153 reviews and counting. (Yes, that was a shameless plug.
You know, i should work on this.

Well... I guess I should be updating webcomic finds again. But I'm still bitten by the drawing bug, I feel less motivated to write but more to draw.
