You may think that making a sprite comic is just as simple as copying and pasting sprites, drawing in a few pixels, and writing dialogue inside of speech and/or thought bubbles, but... you'd actually be almost spot on. But that actually takes a lot of time. It actually took me about an hour to make this one comic, and it took me at most ten minutes to get that table right.
I'm sure that most of Dr. Light's dialogue was hard for you to read. In case you still don't know what he's saying, I'll write down his lines in the normal English language. Don't expect me to do this for every comic with him in it, though.
Panel 1: This, my friend, will be the first in a long line of robots that will revolutionize modern robotics! It will also act as my son.
Panel 2: It's nothing that special. He'll just be like a normal human boy. Only a robot.
I'm sure you were able to figure out that "nowmaw" was the same as "normal." (hint: sarcasm) For future reference, the l and r sounds in Dr. Light's speech are replaced with the w sound, as well as other things that you might be able to figure out on your own. I am convinced that Dr. Light is Elmer Fudd's grandson.
Those legs on the table are part of a Mega Man 9 sprite of Mega Man, recolored to look like armor-less Rock at the end of the Mega Man 1. Zenni is the form of currency used in Monsteropolis (not the one from Monsters, Inc. The city that the Mega Man series takes place in is actually called Monsteropolis. I promise that I am not making this up.) Zenni has been referenced in the Japan-only game RockBoard, basically a Mega Man version of monopoly, and the official Mega Man comic book series by Archie Comics. If you haven't checked those out I highly recommend it, even if you know nothing about the Mega Man series.
