Many thanks to Rich Burlew for obvious reasons, Bloodyredcommie, for the help with inkscape, and Sneak for getting me noticed!

This is great, the last panel made me laugh. So, if you continue to make these, I will read them.
Just thought you should know.

Mmm, good. Easy to follow, nice jokes and the art is okay.

(I see some small letters where capital letters should be - call me a nitpick, but it makes the comic look like it's made in a rush)

Quite funny, actually. The colors are a bit garish, and you might want to run it through a spellchecker, but the pacing is good, and the characters have an original feel to them.

Oh, and I suggest you edit your first post to show all comics you've done so far, not just the first one. That way, people don't have to dig through the discussion thread to read the story.

EDIT: One more thing, the relative size between the (gnome wizard?) and the (human rogue?) seems to vary from panel to panel. I presume that's not intentional.

Then again, if it WAS intentional (Or he just rolled with it now that it's pointed out...) that would probably be pretty cool.

Huh.
Make the text bigger - it's barely legible as is, and if you make it any smaller, as you did for Reduce Person - or even just saying something less important - it flat out can't be read.

I use 12 Font and export 90 DPI. It looks about right. So, if you use 90 DPI, use 12 font. Otherwise, make sure that the font size times the resolution is 1080.
