The sashing could mimic the breaking up of the frames in comic books. But, I have a feeling your honey might like it "as is".
I also have to add my two cents in agreement with Logofflater and Suze9395. My husband loves to read the comics and I find them irritating to read because they are so busy. He will love the quilt! I actually love the way the quilt is laid out as a collage and I love your quilt. Maybe you are discouraged just because it is not your usual choice for fabrics in a quilt. I certainly think you should complete the quilt for your husband and then your next one should be one totally done the way you like it, fabric, color, etc.!
