There was a really cute instance of meta-humor in the comic strip
CROCK yesterday (9-Dec-85). It was a three frame discussion of whether
the surrounding enemies would attack. One of the characters was
convinced that they would.  When asked why, he said

	"Well, just look at the next frame"	(or something
						 to that effect)

... of course, in the next (last) frame, the enemies did attack
