Yeah, it takes getting used to, but not bad. The way Kit stands up there so abruptly in the second to last panel, kind of defiantly, yeah, that seems like a mannerism of the Kit we know and love alright, so to me this is still the same comic despite the style change.
I applaud you, Mr. Speroni. Art is about gut feelings and doing what works for you. It's your work after all, you should enjoy it.
