Pretty fun, if I do say so myself. Partially because Nerd Boy makes a
rather good bad guy. Also, I think my favourite Nerd Boy strips are
the ones where NB is the most miserable. Since the writer usually
identifies with the main character (which I do), that would make my
own misery amusing to me... Well, humour is a tool to overcome misery
and works in mysterious ways. :)

The first one is to start out below your capabilities and raise the quality from there. However, if you're lazy like me, you can't exceed your capabilites. The trick there is to raise the quality logarithmically. That way it always increases, but one's maximum capability is the asymptote of the strip's quality. :) Of course, if you can increase your capabilites, feel free. Be warned though; it's a lot of work. Relatively speaking, you can achieve the effect described above if you increase the quality of the artwork linearly and your capabilities exponentially. Good luck with -that-... -jg
