That was my goal in this. Xander and Serena are comic heroes in the vein of
the Hercules and Xena television shows, so there will be a reasonable dose
of comedy in it. As for the photos, I planned them such that I could easily
stick the text in, yeah. I'd hate to obscure character faces :)

Indeed it does go very fast. There are 14 images in the storyline, but
without much text on each image, the story moves quickly. Even so, it took
about 6 hours to make this issue. It may be easier to read, but it takes a
lot more work.

I actually borrowed the layout of the character page from your Castle page.
I hope you don't mind :) Tables inside tables inside tables. It makes the
head spin!
