Microsoft Comic Chat
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
Microsoft Comic Chat was an IRC chat client that tried to represent a chat in the style of a comic book, with participants as graphical characters and their messages displayed in speech bubbles. It could use custom background and character graphics, given the extensions ".bgb" and ".avb", respectively. Characters and backgrounds were initially greyscale, but version 2.1 allowed the inclusion of color.[1] It was conceived, and its development led, by David Kurlander.[2] Comic Chat was released 1996 and last updated in 1999.[3]
