Thanks for all the advise and critique.
I'll download those fonts and try them on. Try to make bigger letter by leaving place for speach bubbles from the start of creating panels.
I wasn't going to fill this with color but it wasn't that hard and finishing lines would take the same amount of time that filling colors on all the others - I believe that was a better choice. If I could shade I'd go with watercolor like backgrounds (if I know how to do them).

ROFLQU - I thought that Blackbird as a vigilanty suppose to be chased by the law the same way that Batman is.

I was severely disappointed you didn't have stronger blacks to back up the work you had begun with in your cover page. These blacks help enhance your work, especially when you're doing just flat colors and even if you have a wide range of colors. You've shown you have the ability to do them, now try putting together a comic with them featuring throughout.

You need to add in more interesting things in the background. Page 7 and on features nothing but grey and white for the background. It gets dull to look at after a period.

Your story wasn't exactly clear on why Blackbird suddenly had gained the ire of 'Push-Button-Man'. I was confused why they decided to have him fight and what killing Blackbird would have accomplished for 'Push-Button-Man' and 'Balding-Scientist-Figure'.

Your anatomy is improving, but keep a close eye on it.

VERY entertaining, i was absorbed till the very last page. Even though it said "to be continued", i still clicked and expected more pages to show up.
Made it look like both characters are yours.  The dry humor really hit.  I recommend using a more comic-ish font like Anime Ace or (Angie's favourite) Digital Strip.
As for the anatomy issues, it's not really my place to comment on it cuz i have the same problem (not being able to fix it without redrawing.) But there aren't THAT many.  Great work man!
You're on my watch list now.

John - Bad bad man!  You are hereby banned from the Void universe!
All joking aside,
Shit happens, alot...and it can't be stopped. Don't worry, i still believe in you :D

I appreciated the cast layout at the beginning, I've started using that myself and I've found it's pretty helpful to keep people up to date with NPCs. Since you have such a large cast of them it's definitely a good idea to keep using them. First things first, make that text bigger! I don't know if it's your font or what but it put some strain on my eyes. It sucks that you couldn't finish because I enjoyed the story. It felt very Saturday morning cartoony which took me back to the days I watched the really old Spiderman cartoons and stuff.

JOOOOHN!? D8

Oh well. At least we still get some good action and humor for Wolcik, good job man!
What I didn't like too much though, was the lack of in-comic exposition for the snake queen, we just have to take it from the intro page. But hey, it's already a lot of story for two weeks.

Very entertaining! It's great to see some superhero action going on in Void. Arena will definitely be getting in on this fun in the future

This was great. It's no wonder Mr. Awesome's aura of awesome inspires young children to want to be superheroes. Very funny and entertaining. Though you might want to watch your continuity. On the bottom of page 11 it seems his Awesome sleeve is torn, then fixed, then torn again.

I'm disappointed that nothing came from AtomicJohn, though. He may not find a more epic match-up.

I really enjoyed this.  Your strongest comic yet in my opinion.  I'll admit I was a little worried at first when I saw a long list of characters but I think you handled them well.  Good job.

Atomic John, I'm sad I didn't get to see a comic from you.  What happened?

Uploaded and Thumbnails sent! Sorry that I didn't push myself to limits - I sat drawning for over 16 hours today. My mom is having a back surgery right now, and some other stuff happened, but that's not a redhead excuse :P
No shading and 2,5 pages not done. In some places anatomy is off and I already know that, but without more practice I can't figure out how to fix that without redrawning the whole character.
I hope that the story at least seems completed and enjoyable.

Can't wait to see AtomicJohn's site XD
