It's a nice effort, but out of curiosity: What experiences and qualifications have you to answer questions ranging from relationship to financial?

Or will you mostly be relying on your common sense?

The questions are going to be answered by the Spartan Buddha in the comic. It's like if you were to ask Batman for fashion advice or the Incredible Hulk for cooking recipes. It's for fun.

Alright fair enough.

Another question: Are you planning to do a strip with long continuous story arcs, detailing a certain adventure or chain of events etc. (Like say, Conan the Barbarian) Or rather setting up some characters in a more open setting, with loose continuity and 1 hit strips and/or very short story arcs (like say Achewood) ?

It will actually be a combination of both. I have ideas for new characters that I want to introduce that don't fit into the main storyline. Those strips may have a different numbering system or title block so it's easier to tell the difference between the two.

That thing has a storyline?

Sweet morcel of advice for you: Don't spread yourself thin. I admire your effort, but I have a feeling you are going to make many characters and parallel arcs at the cost of any essence, that is depth of character or quality of story.

Try doing 20 strips with your one character first, see how that goes.

your storyline is confusing and/or nonexistent

Is it going to be about the conflicting nature of being a fascist competitive aggressive traditional manly man, while simultaneously being a materially disinterested peaceful androgyne? Or is it going to be "**** that King Leonidas from 300 Would Have Said?"

Yes...
