009 – Mysterious Remnants of a Once Great Civilization
on February 29, 2012 at 12:01 amLost to the ages are the remnants of structures built by a mysterious people for some unknown purpose. Scholars today argue about their exact purpose, debating if such monolithic stone structures were built to honor the dead, celebrate the living, or sanctify the gods. Some even debate if such mysterious objects could have even been constructed by past human communities and not built by, perhaps, ancient aliens.
Archeologists have uncovered various artifacts that only lend themselves to the debate of the overall purpose; small metal discs seem to be a common find among the ruins, as if they had been scattered about with abandon. Remnants of various types of food lead others to believe that these places, whatever their use, held a great communal power around its people. Furthermore, these structures are not limited to one specific place on the globe. Ancient people of all types have built relatively similar structures calling into question how well-connected the ancient world was. Where these structures a common evolution of the human mind or was there a greater inter-contectiveness among these various groups across the entire planet?
These questions will remain shrouded to the Mysts of time for more modern civilizations to ponder.
It’s all down to Ancient Space Invaders!
This comic is awesome. Simple, effective and a just plain great idea.
When going through the old strips I just couldn’t leave this one in the old hard drive dustbin. I had to tweak the grass and one of the Maoi but this one really just came out exactly as I wanted it from the very beginning.
I LOVE IT!!!!!! GALAGA LVL 64, at which point I crowned myself Queen of the Galaxy. True story.
Queen of the Galaxy eh? Can I borrow a few dozen starfighters? I want to make war on various unexplored planets.
It sure seemed like a GREAT civilization. Lots of emphasis on arcade gaming:)
If only it had only lasted a thousand years…
Pray they don’t find the Virtual Boys and all those copies of E.T. for the Atari.
It’s exactly what Mayan calendar is foretelling…
It’s all about Snooki’s baby, the tanned, hard-partying antichrist.
I hope Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition is one of those stone cabinets. The future must know of the greatest fighting game!
But will they be able to get those old games working?
I LIKE THIS ONE
Love it!
