Now you’ve gotta figure out whether they’re talking about climate change or The Rapture

Every high civilisation in history thought they would witness the the end, I doubt we are the special ones to do so

Those civilizations thought that it was the wrath of a god or two, or some war would consume everything. We have actual scientific evidence that our completely unhinged and largely unregulated use of resources that natural creatures have no access to is destroying our planet.

If the difference is hard to grasp then I’m starting to understand why the U.S. has undecided voters right now.

No civilization before us has ever caused such massive damage.

They were all right though, if by ‘the world’ you mean ‘the world as we know it’.

To be fair that’s valid today too. The world as we know it is ending but maybe there’ll be some mad max style pockets of civilization after

Or maybe it’s just the ‘we’ that’s going to be out of the equation, which is fine too I guess. Our particular form of life just isn’t that important in the grand scheme of things anyway.

Of course, when you change into “the world as we know it”, it was already “destroyed” several times in recent history by things like cars and the internet…

Yeah. Statistically a small vestige of us may well survive to tell horror stories of our coming experiences.

  • The comic must be a complete story.
  • If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
  • You may post comics from others or your own.
  • If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
  • The comic can be in any language, but if it’s not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post’s ‘body’ field (note: you don’t need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
