The scene: two people working in an office, at their computers which share a workspace. Panel One: Guy 1, looking at pictures from space: Wow! did you see the pictures Artemis took of the dark side of the Moon? Guy 2: ARRRG! It’s the far side, not the dark side. Panel Two: Guy 1: But I can see it. It’s the dark side. Guy 2: No, “dark side” is erroneous. It’s supposed to refer to the hemisphere always facing away from Earth, but that side isn’t always dark! it gets plenty of sunlight. Panel Three: Guy 1: But it’s dark, so it’s the dark side. Guy 2: The far side isn’t inherently dark. the terminology exists for a reason, and you can’t just... Guy 1 interrupts: In the actual photo it’s dark. Nuff said. Panel Four: Guy 2 breaks the fourth wall and looks out at us, clearly frustrated, and says “He’s technically correct and I absolutely hate it.”

Panel Two: Apple Logo: We’ve teamed up with the best doctor we could find... Dr. Franken-Gemini-stein! Dr. Franken-Gemini-stein who has entered the room says: You will be my greatest creation! Sire says: WHAT!!!!? Panel Three: Siri is panicking and says: No! I don’t mmmpph... when she is knocked out by Apple Logo chloroforming her. The Logo says: There there, go to sleep and we’ll see you soon. Panel Four: Dr. Franken-Gemini-stein says: So, just replace the brain, right? Apple Logo says: No, we have a new body you can install too. Siri on the operating table says: I can still hear you!

Just like me, they long to be Dead to you (there is a graphic of a Starlink satellite de-orbiting itself in a fireball, saying “I’m outa here, bye!” On the day Grokipedia was born the devils got together And decided to create a nightmare true So they copied Wikipedia, And changed the parts the right-wing wanted to. That is why, all the lies in town Follow you all around Unlike me, they long to be Close to you Ughhhhh, close to you Yuuuuuk, close to you Ewwwww, close to you Grosssss, close to you On the day Grokipedia was born The devils groked together And decided to create a nightmare true So they sprinkled lie dust everywhere And skepticism the Holocaust existed too!

Son and father are sitting in a living room, looking at their devices. Panel One: Father says “Did you read about this fake AI band that had over 900,000 monthly listeners on Spotify? Man, I feel so sorry for you kids these days…” Panel Two: Father continues: “Growing up with everything fake! Fake music, fake musicians, fake images, fake videos, fake people on social media! Is there anything real anymore?” Panel Three: The son says: “Dad, what is wrong with that? What does it matter how it’s generated or how it was made? So long as you like it and it makes you feel good! Dad is not impressed. Panel Four: Dad replies: Hmmm. maybe I should trade you in for an AI kid!

The comic has a style that mimics the old Spy VS Spy comics of Mad Magazine. In this one, Mark Zuckerberg is the black spy, and Sam Altman is the white spy. Zuck hold a classic Zeppelin bomb, while Sam holds a stick of dynamite. Both spies have lists. On Zuck’s side of the comic: Zuckerberg’s OpenAI Poaching List: -100 million dollars in cash and options to tempt OpenAI employees. -chloroform in case kidnapping is required. -night visiion google as Zuck things they make him look cool. -Self propelled surfboards in case OpenAi employees need to be pirated on the open ocean instead of poached on Land. -Dig up some of that private compromising data that Zuck has been storing on OpenAI employees since they were in college. -Free Pass to Zuck’s Hawaii bunker in case of apocalypse. (Ironically, most likely caused by A Meta superintelligence) -Remember not to eat what you poach! On Sam’s side of the comic: Sam Altman’s Meta Anti-Poaching list: -Ring doorbell cams at every OpenAI location, constantly monitored by Sam. -Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, and Messenger Jammers. -Cultivate fake “star employees” for Meta to hire, and to use as Trojan horses to sabotage Meta’s Superintelligence -Place Jony Ive in protective custody -Give employees printouts of all the Joy of Tech anti-Zuck comics from the last decade. -Workplace perks like chefs, free food, and $100 million dollar hookers.

A girl is operating a lemonade stand, priced $10 for a glass of lemonade. A man stops at the stand and asks about the high price. Panel One: The man asks the girl, “10 bucks for a lemonade? That seems pricey, doesn’t it?” The girl replies, “Sorry about that, it’s tariffs!” Panel Two: The man asks another question, “There are tariffs on your lemonade?”. She explains, “Yes! I had to buy the sugar from the neighbor across the street but she’s imposed a tariff on me as I’m potentially taking business away from her son, who operates a Kool-Aid stand.” Panel Three: The girl continues, “So I slapped her with a 25% retaliatory tariff on grass cutting and yard work.”, she goes on, “Then she fired me, but her lazy son won’t cut the grass, so now her house looks abandoned and it’s tanked all the neighbourhood property values.” Panel Four: The girl explains further, “So then my mom’s line of credit was lowered and that affects my allowance, so I have to charge even more for my lemonade to maintain my standard of living.” He says, “What if I paid in sugar? Could this whole tariff war be over?”

Panel One: An observatory spots a bright object in the sky. An astronomer inside says OMG! Do you see that? Is it a new supernova? Panel Two: “I can’t tell” say one astronomer, as a view through the telescope reveals few details. “Magnify!” say another. Panel Three: The view through the telescope reveals aliens in UFOs protesting around the Tesla car that Elon Musk sent off into space several years ago. The protesting aliens hold signs including OLIGARCHY IS FOR LOWER LIFE FORMS, Fire MUSK not ROCKETS, DOGE is INHUMAN, Send Musk to a BLACK HOLE!, ONLY DUMMIES DRIVE TESLAS, NO SWASTICARS OR SWASTIMARS!, NO SPACE NAZIS IN SPACE!. A bumper sticker on one of the UFO’s reads I THOUGHT STARMAN WAS COOL BEFORE ELON WENT CRAZY.
