I love the crook’s line: “Ha – a customer!”
You like that “cloud of thought” in the first panel?
I can’t quite explain why the third-string semi-pro quality of these comics is so appealing to me. Maybe it’s the humanity of it. It’s more than halfway between a clunky amateur job and a respectable pro story. Not quite there yet…but he’s reaching for that goal!

Great eye-catching cover! Nothing more fun than drowning your friend in a frozen lake ;)
