show_comic(thumbnail) — display the current comic file(s)
This tag displays the comic files for the day being shown. For comic posts that have one or more comic_file custom fields set, those files will be shown. Otherwise, stripShow will search for files matching your chosen date format in your comics directory (see the section called “Date-based comic filenames”).
What form this takes depends on the format of the files themselves. Image files get displayed via the HTML <img> tag, Flash files via the <object> tag, and text and HTML files are simply inserted into the page as-is.
For graphical comic files (such as GIF or JPEG), the show_comic tag automatically determines the image's dimensions in pixels and uses those as arguments to the <img> tag. The comic post's title is used as the tag's title and alt attributes.

Example A.11. Advanced Usage
