I don't like the new one quite as much as the first. It looks rather lazily done, almost copy-paste looking. Don't get me wrong, I do like everything else, I just think it could've been put together more nicely. The text could be smaller too; it was just fine in the first strip, if a little hard to read. I think it would be better in a new typeface at the old size.
Will there be an overarching plot?
