LAST MONTH, THE world was confounded by the colour of a dress. (It was blue and black, by the way.)
Now, another optical mystery has captured the attention of the internet – a secret picture hidden in this comic book cover, which is only visible to one in 15 people.

Millar then handed it over to the artist Sean Murphy, who said that though most people only see a watch with a cracked screen, a few people should be able to see a green hourglass inside its face.
Murphy explained that only people with a certain form of colour-blindness can see the hourglass – this affects around one in 15 people, including the artist himself.
