Could we establish some Dudley's Dungeon conventions? First of all, text within the panel ought to be restricted to setting messages ("Meanwhile, far above...") and windowed text (NH database entries, flavor text, dialog between gods)
Secondly, assume that text within the panel is read FIRST!
Thirdly, play around with these rules

at your own discretion. While earlier comics often shuffled interpreter text ("a - a ") into the panel, it is now expected to be found below it.
Fourthly, putting an @ before commands ("zap balsa ") doesn't really matter much, but make sure you use commands instead of interpreter text ("Zap which ? [b,k-m,?,*]") Just for consistency, that's all. |

Actually, if you use the "Zap which ? [,,,?,]" you can have amusing little messages like "Apply what? [box or *]". |

In my own comics I always have the picture reflect the text, e.g. if the text says 'The disappears', there's no in the picture. That's the reason why I don't favour text in the picture. However, I certainly dislike 5-panel comics, so there's a decision to be made. The effect in this comic is unfortunate, I must admit.
I think any action by Dudley should be prefixed with @, just like anything said by him. If any other in-game events are described in the text, no prefix should be used. |

Ah.. But in fact all game actions are prefixed by either "You" or the name of the creature. Thus the @ is redundant. After all, "& apply flamethrower" is less understandable or entertaining than "The fires the flamethrower!" |

"& apply flamethrower" is less understandable or entertaining than "The fires the flamethrower!", but "The says that nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!" becomes tiresome after a while... I think each case is different for the best comic effect. |

No witches burnt at Salem. :p (I'm terribly sorry. My nitpicky side got the better of me.) |

They have their own comic of sorts, hidden at the bottom of the comments. |
