You can check out my post <a href="http://thinkingpictures.blogspot.com/2006/08/notes-on-prehistory-of-speech-balloons.html" rel="nofollow">here.</a> I am also framing a response to Kevin Huizenga's assessment of the issue on his Balloonist blog as I think his analysis makes some bad distinctions. He's certainly more of an expert in this field and there are some points we share opinions on (some "comix" as data visualizations rather than storyboards) but I think a dialogue is in order. I will link to my counterpost in the next few days after I get some materials together.

Ha, ha! I was looking at some early Christian paintings ie the Codex Egberti - Jesus meets Luke and Cleopas (c. 980) and it would be great fun to put in speech balloons. " My son the force is strong with you etc". It is truly some kind of miracle to realize all of this. Ha, ha!

It's like a light just turned on. Thanks.

I think its possible that things like speech bubbles have had a dual evolution in the East and the West. I bet there is a Japanese version of this, looking back at the history of Manga.
