Before clicking, I wondered if this was going to be a comic produced by ML. Has such a thing been done?

I wondered exactly the same thing and scrolled to the end for the human credits:

  Script by Dylan Meconis, Scott McCloud, Syne Mitchell
  Art by Dylan Meconis
  Color by Jenn Manley Lee
  Japanese localization by Kaz Sato, Mariko Ogawa
  Produced by the Google Comics Factory (Allen Tsai, Alison Lentz, Michael Richardson)

Even GPT-2 can’t create long, coherent stories; I doubt that such an AI which can explain things and draw useful pictures exists.

Ahh! I thought it looked and read like Scott McCloud[1]. He's got some great books on comic theory that I highly recommend.

I trained a model on Isaac Asimov stories to produce 3-panel webcomics that get served onto a Twitter feed a couple of times a day. If you'd like, I can share it and you can check it out!
