Nature-inspired Comics?

Also:

  • Nothing too blue or lewd that would go against the forum’s guidelines.

  • No poo-pooing someone’s comic just because you don’t think it’s funny.

  • If possible, provide a link to the comic’s original location on the web.

Bonus: Can you ID the species involved and link them back to iNat?

OK, here’s mine, which I love because Spider-Man is my favorite superhero and I love my Pepsis wasps. Unfortunately I don’t know where this comic originated.

I love all these!

My wife and I made this brief series while I was in grad school:

I’d always wanted to continue it, but have recently moved away from coral reef work and academia, so I guess that’s unlikely now!

A bonus: one of my iNat observations that may have been an inspiration for our main character: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/5639593

A T. rex boat!

Talc, mica, kaolin and other clays, white asbestos, blue asbestos
Zircon, garnets, chalcedony, aquamarine…
Wollastonite - the “marble” that doesn’t dissolve in orange juice -
The average person knows a lot about silicate minerals.

The comic is still funny :blush:

I’m not sure the average person knows that these are all silicate minerals.

Me neither - and I DEFINITELY don’t know their formulae!

@vbjanos I think you’re proving the point of the comic… :)

I don’t know if either of these have been posted here yet, but they’re funny and the fly drawings are neat. Calvin and Hobbes is my personal favorite comic strip.
