    Filip Schaff, the character posing as the author’s self insert, does appear in #10, #97, and #100. However this page where he lampshades the fact he repeats panels is from #10.

    In #97 Mark does meet him again and they lampshade a need for something overly dramatic needed for a hundredth issue that may alienate the readers, though the repeating panel joke is done again, but different from here. In #100 he serves as a minor part of the collage of dramatic reactions to what happened in that issue.

      I could’ve sworn I saw something like this in compendium 3. Maybe it was something about 15 different covers for a particular issue or something?

      Maybe I’m just misremembering, but I feel so sure there was something about this late lol.

      I’ll peek through compendium 3 again when I get a chance and see if I can figure out what’s got me confused.

          lol my brain must be fried. I found the 15 versions of the cover thing in issue 97, that’s one of the ones I was thinking of.

          Didn’t see anything else on skim, idk why I felt so confident I had seen that panel (mark gives the kid his bag of comics, no costume and the kid tells him comics are lame) in compendium 3.
