First of all, congratulations on your (upcoming) marriage. I wish you all the best for your future.
As to the comic...
Well, first of all, well done! This was clearly a mammoth task, and to succeed must have taken a lot of effort.
Unfortunately, I couldn't really get in to it.
I read the first couple of chapters and the finale. I think you have all the basics there - The underlying ideas look good, the pacing seems OK (in the parts I read at any rate). The only problem I had was that I didn't like the artwork (and let's face it, conflicts in taste can happen with anybody).
I would make one suggestion: try puting the speech bubbles and lettering by hand, rather than just overlaying typed text in a computer-generated speech bubble. The biggest problem I had was the conflict between the artwork and the lettering - the artwork would have looked a lot better without the very precise effect of the speech bubbles and lettering.
Good luck with Ruby's World. Let me know when it is finished and I will give that a try as well.
Chris.

It's fine that you didn't get into it, because nobody likes everything. I appreciate your honesty and will take it into consideration, especially regarding the lettering.
