Pfft, you call that in-comic animation? THIS is in-comic animation.

And to a lesser extent, this.

Gotta give up for Ornery Boy... he's utilizing Flash in a way that not many other comics have. He's including "flash-y bits" in certain panels; because Flash is used for animation, comics can insert animated bits into their comics. Ornery Boy is doing just that and doing an amazing job. It's a testament to what makes webcomics different/better than print comics.
