Turbo Defiant was originally presented presented in both traditional HTML format and an interactive "Turbo" mode, a graphic narrative experiment Dono called "Progressive Sequential Art". The Turbo Mode allowed for pacing and certain presentation elements that don't work in print. While the comic is still developed for print and available for reading online in a regular webcomic format, Dono is still looking into reviving Turbo Mode, possibly with HTML5.
