i noticed the address change and i like the design better, though i miss the comment feature.
and i've been hearing awesome things about shaun of the dead for almost a year now. i need to see it very much.
as for lettering, i dunno, it really is something where you should try a bunch of things and see what's comfortable. i know most people do it digitally, usually in adobe illustrator. you can find some really great free comic styled fonts over at BlamBot
one thing i suggest which i've done recently for a project and i find looks really excellent is to just take a piece of paper and write out the alphabet and all the symbols in a manner that's consistent and comfortable with your handwriting, then scan that and place the letters individually, but that could (and will, i'm sure) take forever.
another thought is to write out each balloon on a seperate piece of paper the way you like it and then photocopy it smaller and cut it out and place it on the panel.

also, i just realized i didn't post this here, but here's a crappy webcomic i did during hurricane francis of an idea i had over the summer.
i call it Derrick and Dan Do Something Interesting
you'll need a fairly recent version of Java to make it work, and probably a pretty fast connection.
