It´s a very old comic but I hope you like it.
Written in 1993, I decided to redo its art a couple years ago after seeing the original pages.
Looks a bit dated but hey, it´s all in good fun, right?

As for the text/story, no idea because the compression makes it unreadable.
re-post some higher-res shots.
I´ve re-uploaded the pages slightly bigger, let me know if it works better....
Hey, Mayday..... what´s khajit?
The art looks great... although I'm having problems figuring out your light source on some of these panels.
Otherwise, good work all around. These really have kind of a classic George Perez/Phil Jimenez look to them.

Hey, Munch, thanks for pointing that out, I have to confess I never liked that panel. Ever! So, I guess I was waiting for someone to single it out so I could shoot it down
(ohms)Crunchy -I´ve heard about that game but never got to play it. Wasn´t it kinda like Warcraft?
At first I thought it was some exotic dish.
LOL
When I read the word khajit, I thought it was referring to the giant beast because on another site someone mentioned it looked like a turtle (hence me thinking that khajit was some exotic dish).
Originally, I called those creatures "orc asaris" but the design was much different then, more orc-like, less cat-like. Somewhere along the line it mutated into what you see here.
I am resizing them down from 11"X17" at 300 dpi but in my screen they seem alright, noit much different or more pixelated than what you normaly see on the net....
Do you have trouble reading all the word ballons or only the ones inverted with the whitte letters set against a black background?
Like when you look at your image in PS at odd resolution sizes. eg: 50% and 100% looks good but 66.75% looks like crap.
Are you doing something wack, like flattening your image, converting it to a tiff for print, and then using your tiff to resize down for the web?
If so, true type formats don't allow for resizing the same as a working file format will.
Use bombardiers advice to resize correctly.
Try using png too.

In my monitor screen it seems okay, so how do I fix it so that other viewers can read the pages?
Help!
is it a fixed pallette or b&w? Change it to greyscale or RGB before resizing it - see if that helps. Could also go to 600px wide instead of specifying 800px high.

I'm seeing orcs and druids.
I did some tinkering with the resizeing of the pages, let me know if it works better now....
And not just any gryphs but pocket gryphs
I wait patiently for another page.
Yeah, my lettering really sucks...
Sorry......
May I ask, what tool do you use for inking? Fountain pen?
I use two different tools for inking, a rottring rapidograph pen (either 0.5 or 0.35mm) and a brush.
In time I replaced my brush with this puppy and have never looked back.
After the traditional inking comes the digital post where I scan the page into the computer and digitally correct any art mishaps with a Wacom tablet (Volitos 2) and my trusty Photoshop 5.5.
