Your comic strip is very educational. I'm going to post it on my desk at school for the edification of nearby teachers.

Is the "Matsu" at the end your signature?

Yeah, it's kind of an in-joke that got out of hand with some other friends whose names can be (kind of) written with one character. But I like it -- it's a neat and tidy way to sign things.

Could you translate that for us Japanese-challenged readers?

OK, here you go:

THE CRETACEOUS PERIOD

-- Ha ha ha! We dinosaurs sure did a good job conquering the world.
-- Wait!

/

(Buuurn..)

-- This ends here, lizard!
-- Wha--?! A mammal??

/

-- WARM-BLOODED RAGE!
-- Gaaa!!

/

AND SO

-- Are you sure it's OK to kill all of them?
-- Ha ha ha! Of course it is! That's evolution!

Love the comic. Wondering, do you know the They Might Be Giants tune "mammal"?

"A glass of milk
standning inbetween
extinction in the cold
and explosive, radiating
growth."

-- Are you sure it's OK to kill all of them?
-- Ha ha ha! Of course it is! That's evolution!

I'd be sure to pick up the Motion Picture rights to that if I were you, and then jack it on over to Mr. Spielberg's house with some sort of "Jurassic Park" prequel pitch. Go on, you know you want to. :-)

Oh, that'd be awesome. "Gentlemen, the only way to kill these dinosaurs once and for all... is by cloning ancient mammals to hunt them down!"

And then the mammals can evolve into a different species of human on the island, and it'll get all morally complex.

Justin: I hadn't heard that song, but I have now. Perfect for the soundtrack.
