If pic related is your work, I'd postpone it desu.
Maybe do comic strips, write your ideas down and in the meantime, learn your fundamentals.
It would be a shame to pair up lots of time and a good idea with shitty execution.
Mainly composition - both inside and outside the panels. Perspective, character and environment design, shape design, values... The more, the better. Read good comics and watch good movies and don't just consume them, analyze them - how does the director introduce me to the new scene? How did they make this character feel so intimidating, is it the camera movement? etc.
Check out Every frame a painting and Now you see it on yt, they'll teach you all the gimmicks of storytelling in movie (or comics).

Fine, I'll be the one, your art is shit, and you're far from producing anything remotely good.
Which doesn't mean your webcomic is going to fail, there are great succesful comics with shit art.
If you want art tips, you're in the right place, read the sticky, learn fundamentals and you'll get better.
If you want comic tips, go to /co/ they have a webcomic thread with much more information that /ic/ will ever give you.

>that handwriting
bruh, just use photoshop to put the text in on post processing if you're gonna put it in, that way you only have to worry about providing negative space to put the speech bubbles and text in.
