(...) Vogler is a poster child for the new generation of webcomic artists.
(...) His dreams of comics stardom, of finding an audience for his work, remained in the background.
Then (...) he read “Reinventing Comics.” Though he doubted McCloud’s business advice — a mass appeal for micropayments — he decided to put “When I Am King” online.


Instead of splitting the story into panels, he created a series of horizontal scrolls — something only possible on the Internet. Employing exclusively digital tools, using an orange-centric palette and rendering characters that were somehow boxy but cute, the story moved according to mouse clicks on the right arrow.
Vogler added new episodes every week or two. And as his audience grew from 20 visitors per week to 10,000, he began experimenting with motion and space. He encouraged people to hold the right-scroll button down with arrows, making the screen move fast and giving the impression that the king was running. He even added animation: a dangling piece of genitalia here, a spinning flower there.
“I just happened to discover that you could animate some of the images, so I did,” Vogler says. “I didn’t use too much, though, because it would be distracting.”
