2009-10-16: Time Paradox (skynet vs. atlantis)
The problem with the terminator
Okay so you want a "paradox with terrible ramifications" story how about Terminator. That is one messed up time travel system. Consider this particular comic here at Name Removed my submission to Dark Horse as Chief Writer of Terminator Stories. I can do it right.
And if you vote at Top Web Comics you can see a story from a few timeline shifts down the road, a few "ret-cons" further in the battle against Skynet. Seriously, like a whole other comic.
At the request of a reader, constantinoperable, made via the suggestions box which appears on every page, there is now a Random Comic feature on the site. Enjoy!
This comic is in the storyline:
- Variations
A long-running series, maybe the crux of the site. Reader submits a suggestion, and I draw three comics based on that suggestion. Originally all three had to start the same, but it evolved.
This comic includes the contribution:
- Cirr suggested: Time travel causes a paradox, with terrible ramifications.
