    Uh, yeah. Try to tighten up the writing.

    Stick figures leave much to be desired. At least try to scribble something out for us to look at. Also, give 3 panel layouts a try.

    I don't know if the writing is funny, or if just that the usual webcomic drek people try to post in here is making your stuff seem funnier.

    From my experience with webcomics, if you're just going to use stick figures, make the writing awesome. Check this out:

    I loled at Earthworm Adam's response.

    But s_86, for one thing, we the reader, can't really tell who is speaking. We can assume that the italics are from the one on the right but we can't be sure. Use speech bubbles or lines or something to distiguish who is talking.

    For another, the four comics look exactly the same. I understand that you are inexperienced and you want to stick with the stick figures (no pun intended), but at least try to get some variation in your comics. If you have comic after comic of mediocre jokes and boring art, you arn't going to get much attention.

    Look at other comics. Find out what makes them funny and look good.

    Please post some paper and pencil sketches, at least, to let us see the extent of your artistic ability before telling you that stick figures are the only thing you should be drawing.
