OK, bad. Very bad. The concept is good but it simply does not render correctly. It needs fixing: '' si siht ,no emoC" :b uoy bib tahW. ''

this comic is INCREDIBLY hard to read when you're as drunk as i am right now

It's hard to read for me, too, and I'm sober as a judge. I can't figure out what order the dialog lines are supposed to go in.

I read it by screencapping and pasting in MSPaint, then reversing it. Didn't look al that great but I could still read it. For reference: 3rd panel: text: What a strange direction! d: "Hu?" 2nd panel: d: "Come on, this is sick. What did you type when asked for the direction?" 1st panel: @: "Hmm, sorry. I fear I accidentally hit the < button..."

Sorry, I didn't expect the linebreaks to differ on different systems. Both of my systems (Win + *ix) render it correct. The text should look as Factorial debugged.

Fair, as this way my rating cannot be misinterpreted either with or without a mirror

On top, I just noticed the superfluous dot in panel 3.

Voting fair - comic is excellent but for the rendering issues.

xCheckPoint: The problem is there are no line breaks. Check the HTML source.

I wish I'd thought of that before :)
