Killer Comback
I played my first live game in a while today and thought it turned out really interesting. I went through and picked out the mistakes I noticed I made, but feel free to make any comments you want. I always feel really cool when I manage to come back from a major deficit like this

Re: Killer Comback
I would say that after 102, it isn't so bad for you at all. The capture was sealed, and you have solid outside thickness with sente.

Re: Killer Comback
g9 at f8 and there's no need for a comeback.
Also for move 23 your suggested push is indeed good, but only because of the 3-4 stone making the cut work. White's knights move is a shape problem even without that support: the punishment is n3 as if white plays natural n4 then l3 and white can't block. White can only m4 and then you n4 and white m5 for a mutual broken shape trade but black looks better.

Re: Killer Comback
I think that Black should win the fight outright with this 97. This kind of throw in is a standard technique for reducing White's liberties. Learn it! Note that your 97 did not reduce White's liberties so you fell behind in the fight. 
White's bottom area is worth about 80 points. I don't see Black making up the difference if White simply played the hane underneath at 104.
Nevertheless Black's counterattack after 110 was very nice.
