Title is PERFECT, in nuance, in style, and font!

But, I am a 62 yo editor, so what do I know?

Life Imitates Art

Yesterday I was barreling down the freeway when who did I pass but the dude in your comic strip, although his leathers had some cool tassels and beads that your dude does not. However, rather than a pogo stick, he was sitting atop a three-wheeled 'motorcycle' that at the rear looked like the back half of a real old car, and the front was totally cut away to look like a real easy-rider chopper. He was all laid back as though he was sitting in his favorite La-Z-Boy recliner. All that was missing was a TV and a beer in his mitt. I laughed for about 10 minutes and immediately associated him with your cartoon strip! (Maybe he had a pogo stick in the trunk.)

Those types of motorbikes are for disabled people. The back section is so they can fit their wheelchair in and sit on it. You were laughing at a dude in a wheelchair. You're a jerk.

If I had facial hair like that AND a pogo stick, I could probably take over the world!
Good work as usual

When I first saw this, I had to glance at it about three times until I actually understood. I was like "Hell's Crickets? It's Hell's angels...OH GAWD, HE'S ON A FRIGGIN' POGO STICK LOLOLOLOL"
I mean, it was something like that. =D
Though, I must say, the title isn't as clever as usual.

I still don't get it? American Hoppers? Is that the pun, or is the joke something else?

Ach! I'm not usually one to offer criticism as an anonymous keyboard operator, but please, please do something about the title typeface! From a design point of view, it's intrusive and boorish, far too large, has a terrible, rigid, cloying font and there's no need for the overbearing "quotation marks".

When you see pieces of art in a gallery, the title of the work is subdued and subtle; not larger, bolder, and more eye-catching than the artwork itself.

For a work that's based in subtlety, the typeface is the metaphorical equivalent of being sledgehammer'd. With a "SLEDGEHAMMER"

Sometimes the titles are an additional key to interpreting the comic.

You usually offer what instead? Helpful advice? Somehow I really doubt that.

Certainly seems as though I was more curt than I intended.

I didn't mean 'remove the title text' I meant 'tone down the font' in terms of size and obtrusiveness. You know how annoying and unwarranted it is when YOU SEE WRITING IN CAPS LOCK? Or perhaps you squirm when people "pepper" their "words" with "apostrophes"? Well, the title text does that for me (replace uppercased text with oversized, boldened text)

It's really quite a small irk, and no comment on the overall (high) quality of the comic itself.

So please, reconsider the title font & presentation!

I should probably add my two bits here. I didn't take your remarks as an attack and I appreciate the feedback. I'll give it some consideration, especially if other people chime in with the same sentiments.

Personally, I find it visually appealing (I designed it that way, after all). The font I'm using on the title and most of the site for that matter is just Arial with some slightly squeezed spacing. Arial's kind of boring, but distracting or obtrusive is not something I've ever associated it with. I wonder if some other font is displaying on your system possibly?

I would like other people's feedback on this, however, this may all be rendered moot as I'm intending to do a little bit of redesign in the title area eventually, adding some nav buttons and possibly more.

I think it looks good as it is personally, I think the title size works well with the comic. I actually really like the site design, I think it's pretty effective.

Also, great work with the comic as always :) Inspires me to make my own comic, my drawing skills aren't anywhere near yours though!

You know... It is really annoying at 640x480 resolution... but at 1600x900 it's just fine.
Just don't let the title become bigger than the comic and you should be fine.

A 'lol' at work = "Great job" + pat on the back. :)

Love your work, and even though I was one of the people that didn't quite 'get' Pancake Dragon at first, my appreciation of the strip has not wavered. Keep up the excellent work.
