History

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

But wasn't it closing it not opening it that made it go critical?

Yeah, wonder if they're confusing it with something else. Here's more info for anyone unaware:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demon_core

The demon core was a sphere of plutonium–gallium alloy that was involved in two fatal radiation accidents when scientists tested it as a fissile core of an early atomic bomb. It was manufactured in 1945 by the Manhattan Project, the U.S. nuclear weapon development effort during World War II.

It's weird that they made it look like the Demon core, but not behave like it.

Don't let reality ruin a good joke ;-)

It's like the spider man glasses meme. Maybe on purpose.

Maybe it’s galaxy-brain engagement bait.
