Aabh one of the nice things about DAZ Studio is that it's free.
I have Poser 7 but I never use it.
I do 90% of my animation work in Carrara Pro 6.
I think your comic looks fantastic.
Regaring Manga Studio - I looked at it but it looked too complicated for me to deal with and like I said before, I think it's important for the artist to find tools that work with the artist, not the other way around. Manga Studio gave me brain cramps!
LOL!
