Relating to Tycho's post today- Webcomic

Ok- so I'm a long time avid PA reader, but this is my first time on the forums-- only because after reading Tycho's post today about Guitar Praise, I had to share my own Webcomic relating to this very topic. Its a little over a month old now- and oddly enough was done before the whole RockBand N64 mishap:

I'll apologize in advance to the slight similarities between Boodachitaville's Eric and PA's Gabe.. but, heck, PA just has that big of an influence on me

Whoa wrong board... Where am I?
As far as critique on this one: I'd say the whole thing would have more punch if you just dropped the second panel. The jokes in there are kinda' weak, but they could be worked into a funny second strip on the topic.
Dude, I just love the name Cross Rawk alone
Thanks a bunch dude-- it would bug me to post anything less... still, as this is mostly a hobby of mine, the amount of work only allows me to fit in about one comic a week (and remain sane
Big Luke Nasty--
Maybe some crazy, intrepid DIYer will make something like that controller
For real man... it seems like 3/4 of the people who post their webcomics in here dont care enough to do that kind of work. So yeah, nice job, very clean (and funny... the cross is definitely an awesome touch... and the N64 bit made me laugh pretty hard)
Well, first, archive your stuff better.
Second..."Wow" was because you have some pretty great artwork in there. I've only read a couple strips, but as I scrolled through them all I really got the feeling of a classic comic strip. The coloring is pretty awesome, and you really go the extra mile with the backgrounds and speech bubbles (though I'm assuming the backgrounds in the strip on this page are downloaded brushes).
I would seriously take some of your better looking strips and post them up here, because when I just saw that one I wasn't too impressed with your work (people around here generally don't like to go out of their way to click things).
I'll finish reading them, then I might have more of a critique. Just wanted to say I'm impressed. The quality of the art (mainly the dynamic nature and the non-repetitive poses) is above most webcomics (definitely Ctrl-Alt-Del).
ManonvonSuperock-- I have thought the same thing for awhile about the goatee. While it is a part of my character's look, I may start drawing it a little more integrated into the face (starting next comic).
srsizzy-- Thank you! I never considered posting any of my comics until Tycho made Friday's post and I had a good excuse to. I do want to archive my stuff better, but unfortunately my web programmer skills are pretty limited. I am currently using Comic Press (a plugin for Wordpress) to run my site, and I don't know exactly how I might better archive my comics than the default settings. If you have ANY advice/ideas in this area, I'd love to hear them- I'm always looking to better the site, but as I said, my abilities are fairly limited in this area.
