Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic's content:

Panel 1:

• A character with a bald head and glasses stands in front of a device, looking excited. They say: “I HAVE SPENT DECADES CREATING A DEVICE THAT COULD SCAN ALL OF TIME AND SPACE SO I COULD BRING THE MOST EVIL BEING TO THE PRESENT TIME!”

Panel 2:

• A mysterious figure is depicted with a raised hand, seemingly using a device. They respond: "AND NOW, TIME SCANNER… I SUMMON HISTORY'S GREATEST VILLAIN!"
• A voice in the background says: “YES, MASTER.”

Panel 3:

• The device sparks and emits zzz’s.
• A puzzled character with glasses asks: “WHAT’S THIS?”

Panel 4:

• A screen shows a petri dish with a small molecule. Another character replies: “THE FIRST SELF-REPLICATING MOLECULE.”

Panel 5:

• The first character inquires: “WHAT?”
• The other character elaborates: “IT’S THE FIRST LIFE BEFORE LIFE, THE CONCEPT OF EVIL IS NONSENSICAL. SO, TECHNICALLY, THIS MOLECULE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR EVIL.”

Panel 6:

• The first character looks skeptical and says: “IT DOESN’T LOOK SO EVIL.”

Panel 7:

• The second character explains: “THAT’S BECAUSE IT’S SMALL. IF YOU HAD AN ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPE, YOU COULD SEE IT BEING RACIST.”

Panel 8:

• A close-up of a winding molecular structure, with a speech bubble saying: “I’M SURE ABIOTIC MOLECULES ARE LOVELY, BUT I JUST DON’T WANT THEM IN OUR COMMUNITY.”

This comic humorously explores the concept of good and evil through the lens of science, particularly focusing on molecules and their role in the universe.
