Silly little comic.
I like the brothers' dynamic, but it lacks the punch I'd like. I know you're going for a comedic round, but we could have had at least a bit of action-y oomph.
I prefer drama and action to comedy, and you need to get a real, IRL chuckle out of me at the minimum to justify a pure comedy piece. I did not quite get that here
Also, I don't know why Crow gets Raven to do that.
Having the kills be out of the brothers' control is also a choice that has to be made carefully, and I don't think it worked for this comic.

Excellent action!
I kind of liked it better without the dialogue, it obscures some of that truly beautiful action and breathtaking movement.
Your art needs a bit of work, but you undeniably can convey action and movement.
Those chains!
How they flow and strike!
The fight is pretty one sided, which should be a drawback, but it is entrancing to watch Raven play with her food, so to speak, here.
The dialogue is pretty standard fare, I think Arlene is a guy with a girl's name, not someone who uses she/her pronouns, but beyond that, thumbs up.

Overall i thought this story was cute and self contained. Though it does get a bit confusing at the end. The art style is nice and easy to follow, plus i like how you managed to fit the motivations in a clear and concise way. My main issue is how the win happened. My guess is that due to her mouth being shot off, she lost control of her power? It’s a bit unclear but overall, solid work.

This one was hard for me to follow unfortunately. I think my biggest issue is panel structure combined with the speech bubble placement. I had to re read multiple pages a few times to understand the flow. However there certainly are nice high points that i really like when the clarity is there. I like the bold choices in angles. I feel like using so many similar tones throughout the comic does a disservice to the overall look. Good length and pacing.

This comic was just an absolute hoot from start to finish. I had no idea where the story would lead and the ending was real fun.
Solid panel work, really good writing. Your dialogue for the booger brothers was just real solid and felt like it came pretty naturally. The color palette was really nice.

I'm having a hard time finding anything to critique for this that wouldn't just be nit picking.
Awesome comic and can't wait for more!

Another fun action packed comic from Xeno!
your action and fight sequences are always so creative and full of energy, and this one is no different. It feels like you had a lot of fun with the chain attack, and coming up with a fight move name for the booger brothers.
While a lot of detail work, I think somethings got lost in the details as there are a few points where I wasn't sure exactly what was happening. I think Page 6 is the strongest example of this. I think pushing the values more, with some stronger highlights could help with that.
Some of the page layouts and panel work got cramped in spaces, and in others too sparse, so it made the reading flow a little difficult.

Otherwise, it was a lot of fun, and I always enjoy seeing work from you! Thank you for the comic!

It's no secret your mastery of comic humor is unrivaled, and I can't tell you how much I laughed reading this comic. From the comments on 'tearing into sheetcake' to the use of Shitheads hands as binoculars for them both to see. The ridiculousness of how these two booger brothers dispatched their intended targets is the stuff of Tex Avery cartoons and is just so silly, the making sense of it takes a back seat to the entertainment of it all. I'm excited for the methods this duo may have for other clearly formidable future opponents. Great to see your comics again

I know you mentioned drawing animals wasn't usual for you, but you did a pretty good job depicting these marmosets to not only be recognizable, but fit within your style. You have some really great angles and a wonderful knack for taking what could otherwise be mundane establishing shots and actions but applying a dynamic lens to each panel to keep your pages interesting. I especially enjoy the peeks of Raven's smile and cross legged stance before we get the full reveal of who we're looking at. The way those monkey's go out is GRISLY and these ladies clearly spare no expense on getting the job done. The inkwork on that whammy page of the booger bros head split open is super detailed. Definitely proves these gals have what it takes to be in the contract

The lack of establishing shots are what really hurts this particular comic. Most your characters and the way their dialogues go are setup like Sunday strips in a newspaper, but without anything to help ground the location out of the gate it puts the characters in a bit of a limbo-space which is probably the biggest flaw regarding the comic. Still, knowing the amount of time you spent on it, economy matters and you pull it off without issue. It's a pretty amusing comic and it's been a dog's age since there's been some proper comedy comics being done. The gags and everything else make for a great read and gives this an entertaining boost that it wouldn't have otherwise. You've adapted to digital comics very well and it feels very much like what you'd create on paper - maybe look for some nice texture to drop on your work as well? Great work.

The amount of work you chose to devote to this comic is on full-display here. You should be 100% proud of what you managed to pull out, even if you may have bit off more than you could chew with it. One of the main issues here is clarity and it probably would have been resolved if you had utilized some more grays to help direct our eyes where you wanted them to go to. In the future, you should practice playing with your greys in such a way to have stronger readability. Perhaps get an artistic proofreader who would be willing to look at some of the stuff you work on? That being said, this is probably one of the stronger comics you've done on here and the potential for you to continue growing is extremely exciting. Great job!

Reading this produced the classic Gun Comic Experience, namely going "hehehehehe" with a stupid grin on my face. Just a delight from beginning to end; all the little gags landed (particularly Shithead passing the "binoculars") and the art perfectly conveyed the necessary whimsy.

Honestly can't think of much to complain about besides half of the opposition not getting much screentime, but I think the pacing was crisp enough that I can forgive it. Can't wait to see/potentially attempt to murder these goobers again.

Xeno, I'm sorry to say, but you need to either spend more time editing your dialogue or invest in a proofreader. You consistently produce fun, dynamic art, but the nonstop spelling and grammar issues constantly take me out of the action.

Beyond things like never using apostrophes, some speech bubbles are borderline incomprehensible. Things like:

"I was expecting all of deaths tonight I wasnt expected to the first on the menu"

The lineart is solid when it's finished, but it's not enough to overcome a fatal weakness like this.

Oh man your back and forth banter is strong! I love me a good buddy comedy duo and having their circumstances being as absurd as they are really doubles the entertainment for me. My biggest crit and the only one I'm bringing up for some reason is the deaths at the end were so out of nowhere I thought I missed something or perhaps this was somehow mentioned in the opponent's bio and I missed it....still made me laugh like an idiot.

This was an impressive showcase of an action packed battle! fighting is probably one of the hardest things to draw and you managed to do it with four(?) individuals. There were a lot of expressive and creative shots I really liked, my personal favorite being the entirety of page 11. The deaths were so gruesome and well drawn I love when an artist doesn't shy away from drawing them! As for crits the premise is a little strange when you take it out of the context of a randomized death tournament. Raven and Crow are fighting two sentient assassin monkeys and I feel like someone in the narrative should've pointed out a little bit more on how weird or not weird this is. The setting looked like it could've led to a universe where the latter was the case but it never really gets established. Desired context aside what I did see really got me interested in what kind of world these characters inhabit!

Oh no her poor jaw!

I'm not entirely sure what caused the chains at the end to get her. Did her singing powers cause that? I really have no idea whats going on there.

This is a very silly comic. The humour is a little crude but it still made me chuckle. The artwork matches the vibes.

my favourite panel is the 4th on page 5. It feels like the most anime thing I've ever seen you draw.

Really ambitious layouts in this comic! Its a little hard to follow the sequence though: I think you could have really used more contrasting gutters between your panels to help the flow and keep them from blending into each other, as well as to really emphasize it when you do want them to blend with each other.

My favourite part is the panel with the kick on page 9. I just really like the harsh lighting and the motion.
