notabigthreat: Zooming in sort of recommended. Random things you can see:
About half the panels are from March 2011 to January 2012.
The camera moves around especially unpredictably at Sigrid's. This doesn't have to mean anything.
You can see the panic meter pretty clearly on the right.
Those strange regularly-sized spots on the bottom are cage bars!
The most discernible parts of the average panel are a centered Katia, another Katia to the left as seen talking with Stephane, and of course QW's house. You can also spot the Anvil chapel.

Now for the fine print. My definition of a panel was that it has to be at least the standard size, and it can't be very obviously an asset for a greater picture, like the vines in that page. User-submitted images count. Panels larger than standard got cut off.

Any suggestions of other data-ey things to do with the comic?

PermanentFace: What happened after 2012? There really is a clear turning point there, isn't there?

notabigthreat: @PermanentFace: January 2012 was the well arc, if that's what you're asking about?

@damrok4321: Meh, it really is just an average.

SilentOrbweaver: This is awesome!

Here is the cleaned up version of the average. Made by adding contrast and applying "color dodge" filter.

PermanentFace: @notabigthreat: No, I meant to wonder what happened in 2012 and 2013 that caused the rate of updates to slow down so dramatically. The first year and a half of this comic's life seems to have more pages than the following five and a half combined.

scoopski: @PermanentFace: My theory is that that's the point when it shifted gears and became something more. More refined artstyle, less of a MSPA vibe, and doing more with Flash than just adding sound to a scene.
I heard that it was also started when Kaz was in high school; it's fairly likely he'd have started college and adulthood around 2012/2013, thus leaving less time to work on the comic (even though the comic is his main source of income, he's gotta merchandise and get commissions.).

PermanentFace: If you go back and look, though, there are plenty of high-quality features and panels in the updates that occurred before then. It's not the quality that's holding it back.
