Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

He's flying so fast in the Earth's gravity (hence needing to go around it) that he is the one going BACK in time so he will be able to stop both missiles. That's the warning he got in the clouds, using time travel to manipulate events. The question then is, why didn't he just use that speed to catch both missiles in the first place, but rationalizing things like superheroes ruins them.

Well, today just started and it's already weird. I was reading some right-wing bullshit that basically boiled down to, "Elon didn't do a Nazi salute because there's no reasonable purpose for him to have done one." Now I read this, talking about how it's silly to rationalize superheroes. And both tie into the quote from Mark Twain the first topic made me think of, "Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t."
