now you can add “extra-vehicular activity” (e.v.a.) to the list of technobabble acronyms you can use to sound like the very smart person you know you are.

i’ve been told that you don’t actually need to put dots after each letter if you write it in something called… “capital letters”? whatever that is.

well, that ends this little dinosaur storyline. it’s not easy making an engaging comic out of a biology/geology lesson, but i hope you all enjoyed it. expect wholesome space comics to resume again shortly. :D

oh boy, i did a lot of wikipedia bingeing to learn about geological timescales for this comic (and the next few), but here are the cliff’s notes:

the history of the earth is divided into 4 ‘eons’, the current one is called the ‘phanerozoic’, and it’s been going for the last 300 million years. basically everything interesting to do with evolution happens here.

the phanerozoic is divided into 3 ‘eras’:
the ‘paleozoic’ (boring single-celled organisms -> cambrian explosion -> much more fun organisms, yay!)
the ‘mesozoic’ (dinosaurs, yay!)
the ‘cenozoic’ (no more dinosaurs, boo!)

each era can be divided into ‘periods’ (we’re currently in the quaternary), and each period can be divided into ‘epochs’ (we’re in the holocene) if you wanna get real fancy. so it goes eon->era->period->epoch. remember that kids, you’ll be tested on it later (maybe).

sedna makes dini an offer he can’t refuse.

if you haven’t noticed by now, i’m a big fan of silent comics. personally, after page after page of dialogue, i love to take a break and let the pictures tell the story. visual storytelling is always more important than verbal storytelling in my opinion. especially with comics.

now, before you get mad dini, in sedna’s defence, what’s the point in having a giant pile of dinosaur plushies if you can’t bury yourself in them anyway?

as you can probably guess, giraffatitan is what scientists like to call a really big dinosaur. 22 metres long and 12 metres tall. still not the largest known dinosaur, but definitely in the top 5 for cool names.

if only sedna had powered the rocket with whatever anti-gravity magic is in her ponytail, then she wouldn’t have had any problems.
