Echoes in the comic

Hmmm... The Invisible Man is in the comic? The star of the HG Wells novel and my favorite Universal Monster?

Well, he has bandages around his face, and is often shown with a long coat, so it could be him.

But he is an albino.... The book said so.

Only his skin is.

Rewatch the wedding sighting. See if there is any hint the suited person has goggles.

Then we know it's Dr. griffin.

Too low quality. First, his eyes are mostly obscured by a hat (but if he had goggles, not shades, I think we'd see them). Second, I can't even say with certainty that his face has any features - he has some shades on his face, but I'm not sure if they are corresponding to a regular, albeit pale, face, or a smoother one, like the one we'd expect from the Invisible Man. One thing I can say, though - his face is mostly monotonous, and I can't make out the bandages there. Maybe it's face paint, or a mask.

Yeah, the goggles are way too big. We'd see them. Other than that, he does look like him.
That doesn't explain why he had an umbrella, and why he was just standing there.
If we are to look for the invisible man, we're in for some trouble. :evil:

Maybe that's just where he appeared when he came through the wall or is just wandering around uncertain of where to go.
Like was it said why Quixote was where he was on the video with him in?

Well, unlike Griffin, we can ask Quixote about his circumstances... Now is not the time for him, though.

Yeah. I was just saying that what he was doing in the video may have no real importance in itself, but just to show us that's he's come through.

The latest Echo (the Arby's) doesn't match a page that we have so far. It probably is part of comic but there's no way to tell right now.

(It could be possible when scanned, it gives you the whole comic page)

Someone found an echo, http://xovr.twwf.info/i_ufecvhlv.php

It shows the argument Romeo and Juliet had, and reveals a full page of the comic that was shattered.

Is Romeo overusing tsuntsun dialogue patterns, or do I watch too much anime?

Looks a bit like Mr. A wrote the book that Romeo picked up.

Or he was watching them "through the fourth wall generated from the book." (assuming it's fictional)

Th library, obviously. Just looked for correlations to books. Nothing that looks like that one turned up. There are a couple of books by that name, however.

I think we were able to see the name of the book back when we only had the shattered panels, so I'm not sure how important it is. Though, honestly, I'm not sure what to do with this. Nothing seems immediately important from it.

Maybe it's just a "checkpoint", a little vignette to tell us we've found it? The way Mr. A was talking about the echoes, it seemed like we just had to find them and then he'd use them for analysis of the cracks or whatever he's up to. (I hope this doesn't sound like a cop-out... but I really don't think there's anything more we can do with it.)
Why are we even arguing about a dead fictional dude and hypothetical ninjas?
