Depending on the audience reaction to this comic will ultimately lead to the creation of more.
Its extremely short and sweet.

Thanks for all the advice and replies guys, I'll try to decipher through all these intellectual posts and incorporate it in my next comic.

There's a good bit to improve in my opinion.
The humour aside, you need to make it bigger. As it is it's pretty hard to read and see what's there. Not to mention all the empty and unused space. Comics don't need to have the overlapping frames thing, and you'll generally get a lot more readability from a very simple layout. Also, remove those weird transparent backgrounds from the frames, it's a little confusing.
What I'd start with is moving the comics title to the left, and have frames go from there. Only about two frames then go down. It maximises readability and, assuming you don't use an incredibly ridiculous width, it makes sure that even those with small monitors can read it. Vertical scrolling is fine, horizontal scrolling.. Not so much.
Frame layout: [] = a frame
[][]
[][]

Also think about where speech bubbles should be placed. While it can be hard when taking screenshots in a game, you need to do your best when editing to make sure that speech bubbles are read correctly. It was obvious enough how to read it this time, but generally what you need to do is have the bubbles read vertically:
{Is everyone ready?}
-{yeah!}
--{damn right}
---{fo' sho'}
{Ok, let's go}
This makes it obvious which bubbles to read first, based on their vertical position. Doesn't always work, but it's a good idea to at least try to do it.
I'd also suggest another font. While there isn't anything wrong with Comic Sans per se, everyone hates it. Everyone. Check out dafont for some sexy fonts (also useful for signatures).
That's about it. I'd just like to say that I found it reasonably amusing. I'll also say what I say every time I review an intarwebs comic (I'm so pathetic D:): It's not hate, just constructive criticism in an attempt to generate improvement.
Now go make more.

I don't hate comic sans at all. I think it's... what... comics use.
But the layout is confusing, I agree.
