I was curious what the result of JPG compression would be. At quality 95, the file size is half of the png. And no visual differences, even zoomed way the hell in. At quality 75, size is halved again. There’s some blocking artifacts, but you have to get pretty close to see them. Closer than you’d probably be reading the comic, considering it’s pretty large.
