Tannerbot

Aww, compassionate (maybe) tiny gremlin. I figure she is trying to warn them off of crazytown.

Wynn Donivan

The earth began to cool, the autotrophs began to drool Neanderthals developed tools We built a wall (we built the pyramids!) Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries That all started with the big bang (bang!)

Andrea Andrew

And now we theorize if Cubetown is evil.

Michael Boettger

I don't know if they are obsessed or they have prescience or if they are just nuts.

Taylor Hamilton

I have a bad feeling about where this is going

Patrick

Something tells me that this is their workspace and they're afraid clair will make them organize it

Leaflemming

Yay would have warned them? (Yes I know, Yay; but they’re trying to grow).

Simon Green

... and that was the first multicellular organism. After that everything went downhill fast.

Nicolas Demers

Well sure, but Claire is already well aware of the crazy. What could she possibly say that's news now?

ValdVin

"Flash! Two tiny amoeba formed."

Nikki

"There are some that thought this was a bad idea..."

BobC

I thought you said you were an "amateur cosmetologist", and I was briefly terrified.

Tannerbot

I assume the cybernetic dinosaurs, the department of mayhem and the flying annoyance bots that don't allow you to focus on a task for more than 18 minutes at a time.

Buck Caldwell

If one wishes to make an apple pie from scratch, one must first create the Universe.

Zig Justice

Is there really massive, organized (although with Cubetown this is perhaps not the best descriptor) EVIL in the QC universe though? I mean, Corpse Witch was evil, Hanners' mom is cutthroat and ruthless, and I take it for granted that the typical modern societal evils of capitalism and whatnot exist to a greater or lesser degree in the QC universe as well, but I feel like introducing some kind of large, external, visibly evil entity is just not in keeping with the themes of QC. . o O (Although you probably meant your comment as a flippant, offhand remark. 😅)

Jay

Not so much evil, but capable of developing things which could be used for evil if they're ever allowed to become efficient and organized. I have a feeling Just Small has been trying her hardest to keep Cubetown disorganized and chaotic for the good of mankind.

High, I'm Hope

A beginning is a very delicate time....

Brian Leahy

LOL. Wonder if Jeph saw s6e18 of Barney Miller - has a comparable gag...

Likeablejerk

"13.787 billion years ago, the universe came into being. Four days (equivalent) after that, the Director did, too."

Chris Weigert

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” - Douglas Adams

MikeT

Was awaiting RexHead to join him in a duet there

LazyLich

Has the Crisis in Cosmology been resolved in the QCverse?

mammalsounds

Is she gonna say "You can't control DE CHAOS! Organization will kill this place! We need our madness and our bad coffee in order to make...stuff! Like the weird jiggly-juice robot-ladies!"

Todd Perkins

Slightly different from an amateur cosmetologist.

ValdVin

After we've seen the "best coffee on all of Cubetown" how much hope do we have for Just Small's secret cookie stash?

Captain Button

They sing of arms and the librarian...

Nicolas Demers

After the giant glowy octopus that gloops out jelly-filled ladies and poolgs them back in again, I'd say that all counts as small time. And certainly not something for this little goblin to panic about

Yelling Bird

"Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil..."

Sammitch

I'm going to wager that she is some kind of Chaos Scientician, and is worried that Claire is going to decrease local entropy and ruin her research. [and/or ability to freely be a gremlin]

Absentia

How dare you remind me of that show.

Sean Kinlin

Maybe they are maple sandwich cookies. Does he Dare have some?

T. K.

I swear to gosh if that is marten's time traveled child

Sn4ptr4n

Yeah, this is my theory

Grace Serenity

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”

That Blair Guy

I keep wondering if perhaps Padma or Delilah is going to hit him with a surprise one day.....

Drazi

I'm not convinced that Martin is being nice to the ND goblin.

T. K.

oh man

Sean Kinlin

They are afraid of Cubetown gaining too much Claire-ity.

YsabetJustYsabet

Honestly? I keep thinking that she looks like he and Emily had a kid, which is HIGHLY HIGHLY UNLIKELY OMG NO. And yet. Also, that looked a lot like a sleeping bag on the floor; is she living there? Betcha.

Serene

Recombined? MAKE US WHOLE!

Mad Marie

I’m an amateur cosmetologist, myself. When I look in the mirror, my client sometimes looks terrified, too.

Sean Kinlin

"The beginning was the end Of everything now The ape regards his tail He's stuck on it..."

wargrunt42

Behold lo, the old gods failed to stop Ragnarok yet again! Thus the universe began anew; the never ending cycle starts once more!

Mad Marie

Neil deGrasse Tyson does my makeup. His work is out of this world.

Mad Marie

I was just trying to think of that one—what’s it from?

Mad Marie

Hey there, Delilah.

Minzoku Bokumetsu

we just got an advert for "THE LARGEST JAPANESE STORE IN MARYLAND!" which... we already have seen is about as big as a 7-11 🤔 BUT WE CAN'T CONTEST THE ACCURACY OF THAT STATEMENT I GUESS

Mad Marie

They do not seem practiced in the art of persuasive speech. I imagine writing grant applications may be a frustrating exercise for this one.

Catherine Germann

Am I the only one who did not expect a Sound of Music joke from Marten?

Joseph Bonnar

They can be all three. Why assume that Just Small is limited?

Joseph Bonnar

As the alarm on the starship boobie prize was fond of saying, "Warning, this is a plot complication! Warning, this is a plot complication!" (And if you haven't heard Bobby (Boris) Picket's song, "Star Drek", it's on Youtube.)

Bagge

He shouldn't have turned down the coffee

jonesnori

7-11s in Japan are havens of yummy goodness, though. I'd be so happy if one like that opened up near me.

jonesnori

I'm sure this comic series is just full of references, most of which I don't get because I'm old and deaf. But Sound of Music references I can get!

William Burns

♫ The hills have eyes... for Bob and Ethel... ♪

LH

here's the problem, Marten: they're *all* like this here

William Cole

Which is how they wound up living/working in a janitor's closet.

Yelling Bird

Yep, Airplane 2. Highly underrated movie. Not nearly as good as the first one, but the stuff with Shatner is gold.

SpookyPenguin

In the worlds before Monkey, Primal Chaos reigned. Heaven sought order, but the phoenix can fly only when its feathers are grown. The four worlds formed again and yet again, as endless eons wheeled and passed. Time and the pure essences of heaven, the moisture of the earth, the powers of the Sun and the Moon all worked upon a certain rock, old as Creation and it became MAGICALLY FERTILE. That first egg was named "Thought". Tathãgata Buddha, the Father Buddha, said "With our thoughts, we make the world!" Elemental forces caused the egg to hatch. From it then came a stone monkey. The nature of monkey was IRREPRESSIBLE. (everybody sing)

Onyx

I have a feeling that this is going to turn out to be a very important, is not a fully good, reason.

Miyaa

GDI Sean

Miyaa

Is that the one with the line “no, he thinks he’s Ethel Merman?”

Yelling Bird

Nope, the Ethel Merman gag was in the first one.

Bill Marcum

While Marten is in the basement listening to Just Small, Claire is accepting the job.

Stephen Wells

I recognise the pattern: they have perfectly logical reasons for everything they say, but have not at any point implemented the filter "Is what I am saying distinguishable in any way from genuine insanity?"

Stephen Wells

Goblin: briskly explains the entire nature of the universe. Readers: miss it all because we are all still thinking about Bubbles' butthole 24/7.

Stephen Wells

When Marten left, Claire had already started doing the job :)

enchantedsleeper

He's not patronising them, he's reacting as he would to anyone who said those things. And coffee-baited him xD

Jay

I wouldn't be very nice either to someone who dragged me through dubious locations for what is essentially a Mister Coffee cup of coffee and then asked me to influence my partner's major career decision for reasons that won't be disclosed to me.

Mad Marie

When one turns down a cup of coffee, it spills on the floor.

Mad Marie

Aurelia’s dog needs petting! Hurry: someone! Quick!

legobil

Im an amateur astrologist.

Carsten Schultz

"In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move."

David Paul

Or, from "Lords and Ladies": "Much human ingenuity has gone into finding the ultimate Before. The current state of knowledge can be summarized thus: In the beginning, there was nothing, which exploded. Other theories about the ultimate start involve gods creating the universe out of the ribs, entrails and testicles of their father. There are quite a lot of these. They are interesting, not for what they tell you about cosmology, but for what they say about people. Hey, kids, which part do you think they made <i>your</i> town out of?"

Mad Marie

I dated an amateur cosmologist once. Could sift through data for hours upon hours, looking for supermassive black holes and evidence of dark matter, but couldn’t be bothered to locate the clitoris.

Sean Kinlin

We're contemplating the universe in miniature - just a slightly different version of navel gazing.

Mark

Thank you, that's exactly where my head went!

Armin

Sounds like the attraction between those celestial bodies just wasn't sufficient.

Rob Vary

He found the approximate clitoris, to within an order of magnitude.

David Durant

Have we previously considered that Martin might be the Kwisatz Haderach?

David Durant

I want to like the top comment but then it won't have 42 likes any more...

High, I'm Hope

He's leading everyone down a terrifying golden path

David Durant

Wake me up when The Sun is a Deadly Lazer

Daryl Sawyer

I mean, Marten's personality is awfully disarming.

David Pipes

This place gives even a neurodivergent nerd like me pause...

Hugh Eckert

In the beginning, there was Nothing. Then God said, "Let There Be Light!" And there was *still* Nothing. But you could see it!

Mad Marie

Life is brutal and hard—and such small portions!

Leak

What Cubetown needs is the Great Coffee Filter...

Mad Marie

Astrology is a tough job…every time you encounter someone born in late June or early July you end up having to give them a Cancer diagnosis.

Leak

Good thing Bubbles is an AI, or I'd have called it "bowel gazing"...

Leak

Space is big, space is dark, it's hard to find a place to park - Burma Shave.

Stephen Wells

If she was with the SEALs it could be naval gazing.

Hugh Eckert

"Very good! Now tell me, young student, why do I hit you in the face with a fish?" "I don't know, master, why *do* you hit me in..." ::smack of fish hitting face:: "Don't ask stupid questions!"

Hugh Eckert

So many things can be improved by adding "Burma Shave" at the end...

Leak

Nah, it's just 5 crabs in a labcoat.

Opus the Poet

According to Google actual stuff existed prior to the generation of photons to see it by if anything had existed to be able to see, about 10 seconds or gigillions of Planck times after the Bang.

Amanda L

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” - Douglas Adams

Joe

as George Burns said on the Muppet Show "That's nice. It's nice to hear a joke that's older than I am."

That Blair Guy

...and some said that even the trees were a mistake and nobody should have ever left the ocean.

David Paul

A carcinisational Voltron?

Graeme W

about where i expected the comic to go at least in the footer

Miyaa

@Opus • “Gigillions” sounds like a made up term used to describe how much of a billionaire’s profit is taken up by non-permanent workers, not necessarily working for his corporation or non-profit charity. (It’s a lot.)

Cole Blackblood

Proud of Marten for standing his ground - gotta love that character growth!

Joseph Loder

I would be getting the hell outta this place. This kind of nonsense I don't have patience for.

Clifton Royston

Later, in the Devouring period, fish became obnoxious.

Clifton Royston

Where’s this version of Monkey from? Edit: I really like this intro! I just want to know the medium & source in case I want to check it out.

Clifton Royston

That’s the problem with Fermi estimates. Sometimes “somewhere between the knees and collarbone” really doesn’t do it.

Michael Voorhis

Yay may have created the whole place for some secondary or tertiary purpose. The place may have created Yay for some secondary or tertiary purpose (hmmm, Yay is 2YO, yes?). These purposes being in addition to that of creating interesting plot-lines for our entertainment here, of course.

Clifton Royston

Well I'd quite forgotten Charlotte, and wow has the drawing improved since that time.

Eric Lusby

I think Claire is likely to take the job because Jeph is clearly having too much fun writing these characters. Unless we're reading the stealth pilot for a Cubetown spin-off.

David Paul

It was made in the 1980's, originally Japanese, but they made a brilliantly terrible dub of it for the West. It's on Netflix (at least it is here in Australia) if you want to see it.
