The Exchange Student -comic-

Elliekat

So, I decided to make a sprite comic called The Exchange Student.
Summary: Dawn decides she's bored beating the E5 over and over again, so she decides to get a job at the Sinnoh Trainer Exchange, much like a modern exchange student program. But even Dawn is unprepared to get Solana, a Ranger from Fiore who doesn't know anything about Trainers at all.
Prepare for hilarity as the duo embarks on a new adventure!

Comic 1 (my first ever, the font's a bit small)

Comic 2 (fixed the font size)
 
The concept's not bad, but... oh my goood, those backgrounds. >< You don't need to use full green and cyan. Really you don't. You could probably accomplish the same effect by using, say, a map of Sinnoh, with even less effort. And what's with the mixed sprite styles? Solana's twice as tall as Dawn, and her head's half as big. It could be played for comedy, but presently it's just a wtf.

...And, uh. Neaten up the speech bubbles a bit? Don't be afraid to make your comic a little bigger in order to make it neater. Perhaps use a different color text for each character? That can help when it gets a bit wordy.

I'd like to see more, of course, but there's so many little things you can do that'll make it so much easier.

Heh, that last panel made me giggle. C: Are you planning to make a new overworld sprite for the Rangerette once she becomes a Trainer?
