I've been scanning inks into GIMP, then moving them over to Inkscape for
tracing to make the lines smoother. Is there a way to do this in GIMP alone?
I don't mean vector tracing, just getting rid of the smaller abnormalities
or fuzziness around my inked lines. I already scan at 600 dpi.

This is something I've struggled with as well. I'm not sure if I've
ever found a good solution, but Selective Gaussian blur comes to
mind. It's in Filters > Blur > Selective Gaussian Blur. Just tinker
with the settings and see what happens.

Sure. Here's an original panel straight from the scanner:

I tried unsharp mask and selective gaussian blur, but no luck either way
(converted to RGB).

OK, try this: apply a Gaussian Blur to the image (I used it at 7 or 8
pixels) to smooth those lines up, and then apply a Unsharp Mask to
sharpen it again. You should end up with fairly smooth lines. You can,
of course, tinker with the settings of both filters to fine-tune the
result.
