The title text (click comic to reveal)

The good news is this is the same thing that happens whenever you fall asleep, even for a second.

The bonus panel (click the red button to reveal)

That’s some well hidden stuff

XKCD, Oglaf and other webcomics have title text on mouseover (perhaps because that’s the easiest implementation, not even requiring CSS or JS) but this does not work well on mobile (at best, long press reveals some of the title text), which is why some implement the clicking.

Also, the red button is in an obvious spot in landscape mode but too far down for most mobile users to scroll (and they might think it’s some kind of promo).

Yeah, alt text / clicking as bonus content in comics needs to die, majority of mobile users will miss it. Just make it clearly visible. And the red button just seemed like a link to something else.
