High Fantasy looks the most promising so far. Perhaps that's just me, though.

Your sci-fi looks very retro, though, I like it as well.

Based on the three samples I like the Fantasy the best, but all three look good. :D

If you are going to do the Fantasy style then I would ask are you going to include magic? If so, then a mage, dragon, goblin, etc would be a nice addition. If you are going with the SciFi then you need some ships and a space station.

Well, Fantasy and Zombies are perhaps you best "area". Also, you must be a good joke teller, otherwise no deal you know?

I'll tell you something I've noticed about web comics and comic strips in general - comics based on jokes are never funny. The only thing that really sells and has lasting comedy is funny situations between funny characters. When a joke works, it's not because the joke is funny, it's because one of the characters has a reaction to the joke that's funny.
