Full Comic: Passing Afternoon by Kean Soo
I promised myself when I posted an Iron & Wine song I would be sure to highlight this webcomic the same day, so here you go. Kean Soo has a whole series of webcomics he writes along with a rather excellent selection of music.

In his own words: "Usually when I decide to write a music comic," says Soo, "it’s either spurred on by a particular song (Passing Afternoon, for example), or I’ll write a story and then later go back and try to find a matching song for it (as in Snowstorm). I think in these cases, I’m definitely trying to use music to enhance a particular mood or feeling.(webcomicsreview.com")

I can't remember where I read the following instructions, but they are dead on...when reading music/webcomics be sure to let the music fully load and then start the song before reading. Also, pace yourself as you read, wait a couple lines before moving to the next frame, it makes for a greater overall experience. I will definitely be highlighting more of Soo's work in the future.
