Surely someone could come up with a great primer on running an Agilent 1100 in comic form. Until then, Peanuts comic strips will do. (comics annotation by @badphysics.)

    And Agilent could publish "Everything I know about NMR". First frame would be Charley Brown, Lucy, and the football.

    Or a comic book hero, HPLC-Man. Bitten by a radioactive HPLC, he has gained the capability to separate complex mixtures in 10-45 minutes.
