Comic:The Old Lady and the Troll

From CGWiki

The Old Lady and the Troll is a fairy tale about, well, an old lady. And a troll. It's also got a couple of kings, some pretty good food, and some ideas on the value of letting go of your anger.

The story is always the point, but for the moment, the story is beside the point. This little project is to help figure out what it takes to make the most user-friendly web comics user interface.

So, yes, I do hope you like the story too. It began life as a bedtime story, and like most stories it has a beginning, rising action, complication, climax, and resolution. And an end. So, I do want you to give me feedback on the storytelling and art. At least, I do if it's something I can use to improve. So please, by all means, tell me what you like and don't like about the pacing, characterization, composition, etc. I'd love to hear it all. (I'm under no illusion that it couldn't be more polished.)

What's really important, though, is your experience in reading it. I have lots of questions for you:

   * What's frustrating about this screen?
   * What works well?
   * Can you find everything you need on it easily?
   * What's missing?
   * What webcomic features are missing from most pages?
   * What's there but too hard to use?
   * Which webcomics do you think have excellent features and navigation?
   * Which webcomics could use some improvement? (Be nice...)

... and so on. Please comment in the forums to help figure this stuff out. The outcome? I hope to create an excellent user interface for artists, so they can make webcomics with excellent interfaces for their users. I like open source, so that's what I'm aiming at.
