Following a link regarding Comic-Con photos from Scott's site leads one here: http://www.icsi.berkeley.edu/~shweta/ComicCon.html where, after the photos (way down at the bottom), our host, Shweta, drops some comments in passing about reading comics via trails and the how we understand the comic by following the convention (as new a convention as it is). Food for thought.
Scott- Any chance of seeing a better image of Sky's fourth-wall-breaking trailed comic?

Wow. That breaks so many of the conventions that we've seen so far, I think it's a perfect illustration of just how much ground there is still to cover before we can even think about what digital comics conventions might be!
Aside from the fact that it's a simple story/narrative idea and is drawn simply, there's so much going on at once that it actually is rather mind-blowing.
