That comic is made of fail.
Let me explain. First thing that struck me was "Why do people look so stupid here? And what's with the eyes of that penguin?" - Seriously, that penguin looks like its using something highly illegal for recreational purposes. Further on, the story seems really, really, really weak, mostly because they don't actually tell the story. And then, the wall of text attacked. I recognize Linux as The One True OS, but even I got bored before I got halfway down the page.
So some critical words from an anonymous bastard : Ugly, uninteresting (it doesn't capture the readers), and on top of that, if you force yourself to read on, its boring. Really boring. Like "political speech" boring.
This is of course all based on the preview pdf. I hope the author read this and don't take it as a personal insult, but rather as things he should work on and get better before the final result.
