I'd say it's a combination of luck, links, and lunacy. ^^ And of course those special Crowning Moments of Awesome that just drag people in, hook, link, and sinker. (Yes, I know it's normally line, but link works for the web here ^^)

so true... I'm still not sure what makes a comic awesome... its not neccesarily good art or good story... because a lot of comics lack one or the other and manage to get by... there is some eleusive x factor... that must be some kind of mixture of good advertising and memorability...
@Tim, yes I expect so... but it works for me... because with it's current chapter length dspring could roll on for thousands of pages.
Nothing wrong with holding your standards in that final 5%. >_>
Not at all. Don't forget, I tend to review story-form comics rather than the comedic stuff (I find it easier to review something that's ongoing, for one thing).
I was also perhaps optimistic with that 5% good rating. There's at this point hundreds of thousands of webcomics, some of which died with only two or three updates (and even more that die stillborn with just the bare-bones of a site started and no comics). A lot of people think they can pull a Penny Arcade. No. They can't.

As I go through Dspring, I will be making an attempt to edit it down, for maximum comedic timing and flow- seeing as stu wants each chapter to fit the 12 page format quite a bit will have to be cut. I will try and bring my trademark artistic charms in to make it funny and kitsch rather than weird, in-jokey, badly punctuated and highly plagiarised.
In fact Stu, it might be a good idea for you and me to sit down with a printout script and our pens and edit it together like me and Ally do with the scripts for FL and Cherry. I've got a plan for the first 24 pages but after that, we're in uncharted drawing territory.
