Yeah. That's one of the issues that I'm not sure how it happened. Like, it worked normal (the comments are supposed to appear below the entry), and then arbitrarily it started doing this issue a few updates in, without me editing the code (shy of entering the ad banners and such). Please update me if you find anything. OH! Yeah. That’s one of the issues that I’m not sure how it happened.

It's when you're on the page for the individual entry that's a bit wonky. I'll look at the code and see if anything jumps out at me. Since I read from the RSS Feed, it goes directly to the page for the newest post, not the main page, so I always get the broken stuff. I'll see if I can figure it out. The main page displays fine.

I'll admit, I'm retarded when it comes to CSS...any idea what might be causing it?

It is currently pretty broken in Firefox. That is, unless the idea was to have this randomly floating sidebar on the bottom of the page all by itself. I'd opt for clever CSS over flash. Some flash gets broken when people have Javascript blocked (which smart people do be default). Maybe do PDF downoads of the comic broken down into "issues" of about 24-32 pages (your standard comic size) each. Dems my suggestions at any rate. Optimize the layout for web standards.

And a bunch of animated gifs (perhaps some of dancing penguins?). And this black background? Pfft! You need to find the most obnoxious, neon color you can and then make the script on the page an equally obnoxious neon color so that your readers' eyeballs bleed. You need to make sure it takes a full hour to load each page. Then you will have acheived true web-design success. But really! The site is pretty good as is. Simple and functional.
