Re: Feedback on "Changing and Growing in Las Vegas"

I'll admit I was a bit disappointed when reading it. When I first saw it, I thought that there would be a sort intangible aura to the Las Vegas environment that would lead to more natural occurring and intriguing changes. Instead I get the same old cliche, "Here, take this experimental drug and it will give you giant breasts." This whole story could've gone entirely without the whole 'running away to Vegas to be a stripper' aspect.

Also, I agree with what others have already said about the accented text. It's unnecessary and distracting to the reader. A lot of artists and writers make the foolish mistake of choosing elaborate fonts for the text. What happens is the text becomes difficult to read, the focus becomes more on what the words look like instead of what they're actually saying, and in a comic setting they distract from the images. You could just as easily get across the accent by using slang spellings common to the nationality.
