These are looking really frigging sweet right now, though page 2 - when you go to print it all together, if at all possible I'd try to make the text bigger. Personally, I only really glanced over the page. With a cursory familiarity with what the text ought to be (it's been a few years since I read it, but--) it was too much trouble to try and make out the tiny lettering.
Otherwise, looking fantastic. Especially compared to the other Palahniuk graphic novel(s) floating around the 'net -- not that the artists behind them aren't utterly fabulous. But say, the Lullaby one which I scanned over, the style it was worked out in was a little abstract, and left a terrible feeling of disjointedness on the reader. It was mostly impossible to spot the characters in the artwork, and thus made it a difficult read visually. Not as easy to identify with squiggles which you think ought to be a man and a chandelier, but can't really make heads or tails of.
Regarding page 2: I guess that only applies to the size that you had posted on Deviant Art! I didn't re-check-out the pages before I went ahead and started babbling.
