Those "trappings" are the very existence which gives art meaning. I understand the importance of things outside the spacetime of a given artwork's inception, but you're throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
Yes, I'm purposely avoiding today's comic because DANG, that was depressing. It seems Jeph remains unafraid to strip the concept of "comic" from the trappings of its etymological root in comedy.

Looks to me like a Neko Bus grin from 'My Neighbor Totoro'. Though I don't know if Studio Ghibli does mugs.

What it looks like to me is that she sees the road he took in front of her, and the end of that road is off on the horizon - not close, but visible.

He's exactly like Batman that way.
Wait a minute...
Have Jeph and Batman ever been seen together?

My reaction to that last panel: FUCK YEAH! WE'RE GETTING BACK TO THIS!
Now that I think of it, Faye might not have shared that if Claire hadn't left.
