    The comic is still worth reading [sometimes] so that's why I decided a vain attempt to chide his more recent further dip in quality a more fervent post.

    I can respect other people's opine of the comic, I was just expressing my own. No cause for alarm.
    You've misspelt "amusing", and "vain attempt to chide his more recent further dip in quality a more fervent post" is gibberish.
    Also, "opine" is a verb, meaning to state an opinion, whereas what you want in this instance is the word opinion. The word you were searching for is actually "opinion".
    And "Mr. Burlew" seems very formal, almost patronising rather than respectful given the context.

    What was it about #465 that made you laugh, and why do you feel that's no longer present in the comic?
