I still need to get the cover letter for the deck together and toss it at possible publishers. o.O
I don't really think of Absinthe as a "webcomic"; it's very much a comic that happens to be premiering on the web. So I'm not setting my sights on being better than your average webcomic; instead I'm aiming at being better than your average professional printed comic. Most web comics are, well, amateur projects done for fun. I'm comparing my work to stuff people were willing to spend big bucks to print a zillion copies of in the belief that there would be a market for it. I'm not doing anything especially "webcomic" - all my excursions outside of the usual page size are in the form of double-page spreads.
Being traditionalist is oddly progressive, somehow.
That said, my labor of love is a dirty furry comic. Well, maybe it'll redeem those sectors to some extent too!
