As a comment.. I'd not read your comic. Sorry. Just looking on it bored me: 1) The text is nearly unreadable, 2) The noise is not cleaned up, 3) The characters are very boring and plain.. Here's a few hints I can give:

-Make EVERY picture in your comic different. Nobody wants the same character standing and babbling the entire comic.
-Make characters' size LARGE, background TINY. The character least fill 1/4 of the comic picture, unless you are focusing on the background.
-White your text, THEN draw the text box. Unless you've an idea of how much it'll fill, most of the time the text will be pulled together and look messy.
-Make unique details on every of your characters. Don't detail them too much of course, but use it for descripe their personality. Such as scars, sun glasses, or a hat.
-Clean your stuff. Make sure on there's no noise leftover. The callender in the comic is a good example of lazy work. It's really hard to see the numbers. Use your eraser or scanners light tools to remove the shades of the paper slightly. You can also use a photo edit program to clean it.

Avoid turn your comic into a roman. That's too much text.
