This is an example of what I'm talking about:

Is it readable? Illegible? Should I re-letter strips like these?

I'm with dhlawrence. That strip is really legible, but some of them are a bit trickier. I remember in particular that dramatic scene with Twap confronting Satan in dragon form...I remember even then being almost unable to make his dialogue out.
:icontwapa:
That one will be easier to read, I promise. XD

That one's not too bad. I'd take it on a case by case basis.
:iconsenav:
I found your writing perfectly legible through most of the comic. The main thing is who the lines aren't always, uh, lined up, for lack of a better word. There's slanting going on. And sometimes there seemed to be too many words for the speech bubbles, and things would get a bit cramped.
The fact that you had fairly neat printing made up for that, though. *envy*

It is quite readable, I do not see any reason to reletter them.

I think that one's actually pretty legible, though some of them start to push it a bit ([link]). The manual lettering is cool, but you might want to revise it if only for the sake of fixing spelling and stuff...
:icontwapa:
In the revision most of the "ghosting" around the letters should be removed, anyway, if that's the concern.

It's legible but takes effort. However I reallly want a print version of U asap! So whatever you decide >.<

What I see and what I know cannot be added to what you see and what you know because they are not of the same kind. Neither can it replace what you see and what you know, because that would be to replace yourself.
