I did some super sloppy editing to show you how you might improve your comic look if you use a lasso tool and some layers to build a whole page composition instead endless streams of boxes.
Here's a page with elements moved (nightfox is about 2 inches closer to coyote than original), and overlap from one frame to the next.
and here's the page with some elements reworked but forced to fit mostly in the original page panels
with a bit of overlap to make the action pop a little.
Takes some extra time and it's a bit tricky especially with Paint.net but I think you fight scenes loos impact with the the box panels all lined up in a row.
Also "this is the back of the hero, and this is the vast 3D game world he sees (inside this tiny comic panel)" kind of just stops the plot. Skip those frames Cut to the chase as they say in the business.
Open the emotes panel (type /emotes) and try a few of those with a close up, maybe something like Lookout, or lookoutkneel can make things more interesting than stiff cape and cowl.
Calamity will be a shared series, so it will not be just one of us. Me, cloud, somerandomkid, and thilil14 are all going to take turns. If our friends at Nexus wanna help then we'll let them take a turn as well.
The Long-awaited Arachnae issue #11. Due to the timing and how long it took for this issue to come out, It sets place before Infinite Enforcers #4/Calamity Part 2. Basically showing some of Arachnae's side of the story while also picking up where issue 10 left off.
Whoa, that was something special. Nice job on all the images and custom special effects.
One note though, English is read Left to Right, Top to Bottom.
That includes image panels, and text panels. So if a person is talking first in an image panel, their text should be somewhere to the left of the person or thought being expressed that would follow on the right. A few places in the comic this reverses and it creates a moment of thinking about the odd layout instead of reading. You can flip pictures to make this line up, or maybe even just get some close up shots of your characters faces on clean backgrounds and throw those into frames where they just chat with each other without any kind of special action going on.
As we bring our event to a close very soon, we'd just like to say thanks to all who have helped. We are on the last two issues right now, so let us know if you'd want to sow for the therakial battle. The poster with text
If you do know what it is let me know. World War will start after the Calamity event and new heroes will emerge as well as villains. There are teams in this is you want to join the event and hopefully some will join.^^

Here I used /unlit 2.5 in the demo player
The original scene is pretty dark and you can't really see everyone in it.
Now, a couple things to tease here.

I am pleased to announce the imminent arrival of your bouncing, badass baby brother, Neo-Spider.
:biggrin: :cool:
(Probably the last spider hero created, Unless Novarockz and the others have another plan.)
“I put a 'Glitch' in your system!”
extra gritty for gitty lovers
This, as far as I'm aware, is the first comic about a Supervillain in Infinity Universe. Hence, I made a new logo.

An unknown darkness is brewing within Arachnae, something deadly and nefariously evil....
Coming Summer 2015

Probably not like this
This tip of the week from Comic Life has some good panels illustrating the close up shots.
Have you tried this Comic Life software? I forgot all about it.
Oh boy Enforcers sure is full of action and drama!
Really snap job on this one, Novarockz. I get a real big kick at how your talents grow with each new issue.
Keep at it!
Got bored and decided to make a Marvel Cinematic Universe-styled title card.
Release date is not real or official BTW. Official release is still in planning

If we like it we will do it and Heroes and Villains. Have to see which would be better.
I think he meant Heroes and Villains of CoT whenever that comes out probably.
My main character is Blackflight
Also keep up the good work o7
Nepht and Dr Deflecto on primus
They all thought I was out of the game....But I'm holding all the lockboxes now..
I'll......FOAM FINGER YOUR BACK!
Updates:
Besides World War and Spider Wars returns
1 or 2 comics will be released a month so we can be more focus and do it like Marvel and DC.
When I say 1 or 2 it mean for its series so you can have 1 but just one or 2 for that one.
All coming soon!(Except for (Psycho Squad)
Neo Spider Issue 1: The Origin (Part1)
Thanks! Glad you like it! I'll try harder for issue 2.
Eventually, times require you to be more then 'Amazing' and 'Spectacular', sometimes you gotta be...
'Relentless'....
