I might suggest (for starters) to avoid using compressed svgz files. For one, virtually all web servers have gzip compression enabled so it almost certainly won't reduce transfer time. Also, I have had multiple issues playing around with svgz in the past, it's simply useless in my book.
I'm also going to go out on a limb and say that your comics are doing something wrong code-wise. I can't really tell what from a brief look, but I'm assuming there's just something in there that could be done better. Great drawings and animations though.I viewed them in Opera, but I'm not sure what features are or are not working for you.
