Well, without "real credentials", it's a webcomic. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. I completely forgot this was non-fiction until I read the HN title again.
Agreed, it's not really anything more than a gimmick. However, if it only appears once in a few thousand applications it's going to grab attention while someone is trying to figure out what the heck it is.

It's cute, but it's only popular because the guy actually has some real credentials. If you tried this with a medicore resume it wouldn't work.
