avoid narration when possible.
having someone think "ouch" is really superflous (read : unnecessary), a silent character sitting there after getting the ice-burn is more effective. the reader creates closure on their own, eliminating the need for the obvious "ouch" in a thought bubble
look at some of the commenters here and their comics and take notes - it's an artform, but not something that can't be learned. it took me a while too.
short version : you have good ideas, just sloppy execution.
