- Gundam GQuuuuuuX continues to delicately balance an engaging coming-of-age story about gay teenagers with a big political plot that has 4,000 references to a 1970s show I'll never care about.
- We should have known all along that the Star Wars sequels had no idea what they're doing when J.J. Abrams thought it made any amount of sense for Han and Leia to name their only child after Obi-Wan Kenobi.
- Have a little teaser, as a treat
- You can read the next page of Dark Science more than a week early over on my Patreon! It's a doozy www.patreon.com/posts/early-...
- One of the core charms of Big Trouble in Little China is that you have a protagonist-coded white guy who doesn't realize he's the comic relief sidekick in the movie. And I'd strongly argue that this is the core appeal of Han Solo. He's not cool at all, that's why he's fun!
- You could call it a regional preference, but I feel like I could scientifically prove that coffee is better with chicory root.

- Actual true story: when I was about seven I would sing the lyrics to Pryde of the X-Men as "Ex-Men, Ex-Men, super babes" because I thought they'd be more interesting as trans women. youtu.be/b1qrbAGsEOw?...
- Remember the time Hayakawa unwittingly solved the mystery of the Dark Scientific Method by explaining the labor value of art?
- Happy Piccolo Day to all who observe
- The level of theory crafting that this latest page has instigated is almost unprecedented for Dark Science, I love that people got their gears turning
- It's that wonderful time if year where I have to get up no later than 6am if I don't want my face burned off by searing sunlight.
- This isn't relatable at all, I'm always in leggings
- Machu you know what's better than narrative comphet? Taking your girlfriend to dinner #gundamgquuuuuux
- A million years ago I taught a webcomics course for one semester at CCNY in Harlem, and I wonder if anyone who took that class actually went on to make a comic on the internet. Shout out in the comments if you did (statistically this is probably unlikely, I only had like 20 students)
- People were hogging the laundry machine downstairs so of course I took the opportunity to have a two hour conversation with my girlfriend about how people don't appreciate how much leftist filmmaking technique is central to George Lucas's movies.
- I like playing any genre of game with a HUD because it lets me live out the fantasy of knowing what's going on in my body.
- "It's so unrealistic that in less than two decades everybody just forgot about the Jedi and thought the Force was made up." Sweetheart there are people who think school shootings were faked, the Earth is flat, and the Holocaust never happened. Fascism's a hell of a drug.
- Sure there's a page that just went up today, but did you know there's also a color teaser of the next Dark Science page over on my Patreon? Probably not because I just posted it! www.patreon.com/posts/color-...
- Call of Duty? Sorry, I only play girl games like Infinity Nikki, Animal Crossing, The Sims, and Dark Souls.
- Dark Science #166 - The Awakening dresdencodak.com/2025/05/05/d...
- Venus Wars and Armitage III are interesting to me as examples of great, solid sci-fi anime that had the misfortune of coming out within a year of groundbreaking anime that overshadowed them (Akira and GitS, respectively)
