Not exactly. What I _would_ recommend, though, is to check out the other McCloud books if you haven't already. (Understanding Comics, Reinventing Comics, and Making Comics) While I don't consider them required reading, I'd say they definitely fall under suggested reading since, while not the be-all end-all law of comics, he hits so many of the high points that you can't go wrong with at least acknowledging them.
While the 24-hour Comic challenge has a lot in common with SF!, that book looks to be the end result of a breakneck chase. SF!, even when doing comic book or gn scripts, is just the first step. Dream big, but don't put the cart before the horse :)
