Conversations that would take mere moments in real life can take several days to pan out. Fights (like the on in Grrl Power) that would take minutes in real life can take months to display in comic format. And then, once some action or dialogue is over with, the comic can suddenly snap to and span several days or even months, from one comic to the next.

In El Goonish Shive, on the page published 2013/01/22 a character suffers a blow that will knock him to the floor. The next 3.5 pages are the conversation that character is engaged in *while he is falling*. So, roughly a quarter of a second. The second page after that, there's a six-month time-skip between panels.

Grrl Power began a flashback on 2010/09/20. In-comic, in the flashback, it was Tuesday morning. It's now lunchtime Wednesday. This comic has one or two new pages a week (I think originally one and currently two).
