Extension summary
Allows you to quickly view any xkcd comic. Quick viewing of the latest xkcd comic, along with a explainxkcd.com search bar and ability to view any xkcd comics by entering their id, except in particular cases, for instance when they have interactive elements. I am working on incorporating these. Each frame includes the comics image, title, release date, number, permalink and a link to the explainxkcd.com article for relevant comic. Also buttons for previous, next, random, first and last comics.
