Chip on my shoulder

Well, I hadn’t finished a comic in over a month, but there was this prompt:
comixwarriors:
Thoughts? Suggestions? Should I go back and rewrite it?
I know that I haven’t been ignored that badly, and I’ve suffered more due to suddenly quitting every time I start to get exposure than from anyone’s attitudes. But it does feel like some (most?) people don’t know what to make of my artform. Sometimes I haven’t been sure what to make of it. I just wanted to address the attitudes I’m afraid I will run into.
Edit to add: Revised version!
I think this is better than my first draft.

One great thing about assembling strips in Photoshop is that I can move pieces around. I'm still an ass in this, but I think I have a better ending.

comixwarriors:
Comix Warriors Prompt #1: Introduce yourself!I put something together, but I haven’t submitted it yet. I’m not sure about the giant chip on my shoulder.
Submissions open from 09/18/13 - 09/24/13, due at 11:59pm.
For your very first CW entry, I want to get to know you all. Who are you, and what are you doing in my private treasure dungeon?!?! In all seriousness, make a comic about yourself, it’s as simple as that.
As always, submissions should be a single page, and PG-13 or less. Other than that, go hogwild! Get creative! Make the comix that your heart cries out for.
