Whenever I see the noses in this cartoon, I think of him:
fallout ghoul

I can't help it, I'm sorry.

The noses are quite distracting aren’t they? It leaves me wondering if the author actually intended that. Do they want people discussing the noses every single time they release a comic?

I suppose it's a distinguishing feature, whatever the reason.

The Author seems to like em this way. I don't. The author seems to think: my comic, my rules, let the haters hate, I can't please everybody. And the author is right. Still...

And that’s fine. I’m not going to criticize the author for having their own style and sticking with it, not caving to pressure.

My critique is just a question of goals and what is most effective for conveying the intended message. I am not an expert though, so maybe a focal point like that is a conversation starter rather than a distraction.
