       Yeah, Pete, smash’s question is understandable, but I think you handled the layout of that panel about as well as you could possibly have done, given what you were trying to accomplish. The speech balloons are close enough together vertically and far enough apart horizontally that the eye follows them more easily down than across, which is what you intended.

       What with all the titles and protocols and so on, this is a particularly fun strip to read right after watching the recent episodes of Downton Abbey. There appears to be a typo in the second panel, however, though I certainly agree with Mike’s assessment that “Sir” is way too formal for him.

         I read it just fine.
         This read pattern has been WELL established with nearly 800 pages following that exact order.

   Caught a word order mix-up in Mike’s first speech bubble in the last panel. You have “I what ask” instead of “what I ask”.

     It’s not a mix-up, it was a mistake, hey Pete! Can you please fix that? (You’ll probably get a lot of comments about it)

   Mike’s not manly enough to be called “sir” can you call him something like ” ” that’s right, don’t call him anything. Just kidding but really, call him something like “cookie lover”. I’m serious. Or you can call him “mike”, his name.

   In the second panel, “to formal” should be “too formal”

   I’m really enjoying this storyline. 🙂
