yea, youre right i'm not helping. lets see. definitely look at models but also normal people too. models are usually pretty and kind of have an equatable face with proportionate attractive features (which is how you already draw you're people for the most part). it's all about giving variety to the size, placement and shape of each feature. take a look at some caricatures, they can give you really exaggerated ideas of how to draw different features.

trying to caricature real people will help you to kind of pinpoint what and why features standout on a certain person. then it can give you an idea of how to work that versatility into your own style. theres tons of differences going on in our faces, we have differently shaped chins, bigger eyes, smaller eyes, eyes set farther apart, wider faces. here's some pretty diverse people to look at

i like the hatching and rough inking in all your drawings! the variety is lacking though, the faces are still pretty much the same, i think you really push your face and body shapes farther.

yea, privately getting opinions is good. but writing isn't too difficult to critique, a list of general rules and tips for writing can definitely be made up for reference. comics are art and writing and both have objective rules that make them good and bad. and as for not being 'educated' enough, a lot of knowing what is good and bad writing is just common sense, you don't have to be an English major or something to know. you can easily tell if a characters dialog is natural or not or if the dialog is helping the story move forward. also nothings wrong with an opinion even if it is uneducated. i think a writing section would be handy.
also good writing and story telling go hand in hand. you can't usually have one without the other. as for what good writing involves, some things would be the idea: how well its conveyed to the reader and how it the events that occur within the story flow; dialog: needs to help show the theme or idea you are focusing your story on or it should develop the nature of the character among other things. usually dialog that we'd use in real life bogs down a story, so don't be afraid to cut boring or unessential dialog out. being able to understand characters and why they choose to do certain things is important too. also making sure you don't have bouts of author intrusion where the reader is taken out of the story by some spot of bad writing or a mistake (ex: having a character tell another character something they'd already know just so the reader knows, it interrupts the belief in the story)
these are some links on good writing too

a literary theme is just an abstract idea. an example is freedom and sacrifice which is what my comic with helf was about (not very well delivered mind you). and pong brings up good points about writing and themes. void has been stuck in good vs. evil genre for a long time; i think its time to add more to that. and back on just writing, if you stripped away the art from your comic and laid your story out by its bones, just as prose, it would most likely be rubbish, no matter what genre it is. some people underestimate the story and lay on some glamorous art (which is fine!) but a solid story does wonders and i think people take it for granted sometimes.
