I'm not trying to be mean or anything legend, I often put 100, even up to 200 hours worth of work into a comic, and I don't think that it's totally unfair to ask for a few dollars for all my hard work. I'm sure I work just as hard on this comic as you do at your job
Plus the company I worked for just went under...so at the moment this is my only source of income. *le sigh* (T^T)
