    For some reason, I see "Redone Art for ROKA" posts in my email feed but
    not my Usenet Eternal September one!  So I'll respond here.

    I admire redone art.  I've secretly been redrawing my own web comic art
    all along.  (Usually to fight Color Error King.)  I think in your redone
    art, I am reading the stuff approaching the climax of the ROKA story. 
    But that's only because I've read it before.

    So I checked Ripping Off King Arthur .com to see where this story arc
    was.  It showed up as *after* everything else - as an introductory
    story!  If you'll forgive my observation, King Arthur, your story is
    fine but this arc is not an introductory story. https://www.rippingoffkingarthur.com/new-readers-please-read/ is good at explaining the other options.  And who cares how bad the art is for the beginning.  (whether ROKA #1, or Powernaut #1.)

    Your navigation is fine, if I use forward arrows and back arrows; the
    redrawn stories fit right in.  (You're ahead of the Powernaut web site
    in arrow navigation.  Heh, I might have to consider those arrows at some level.)  You have overall navigation; perhaps there is a way to bring
    the redrawn stories in to that without them being at the end, while
    still emphasizing them to new readers.

    Yay, ROKA!

    Scott was raised as the Last Son of Planet Scottron on Scott Island.
    There he learned that criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot, especially of Scotts. So Scott secretly went to Scott High School and
    trained himself to become a Scott to confound them. There he built a
    suit of Scott-armor, and was given a mighty Scott-hammer plus an
    invincible Scott-shield. Scott's mighty armament is only subject to
    other Scotts. This is an incredibly common problem, though. So
    Scott has to rely upon his Scott-Sense to identify possible danger.

    So sayeth Scott.

    Redrawing my old stuff is like 50% of what I draw nowadays. The other
    half is pokemon drawings.

    Nifty. I should probably work on my website navigation, but like I'm not
    very good at web design and I don't want to go through 150 pages with
    the janky neocities web-editor.
