Looks like scan of a grainy pamphlet with a video game screenshot. The shot depicts a room that is empty except for an open box, a bare lightbulb, and a manacle chained to the wall. A pop up over the box says NOTHING. In the lower left is a portrait of the apple man’s face. Text below the screenshot: Whatever you thought was going to happen is cancelled and… the text continues but is cut off by the crop

A comic page that looks like gray marble inset with CRT television. A very white newswoman on screen sits at a gray marble desk with papers in front of her. A 777 bug is burned into the lower left. She says: More bad news for dog owners: a ringing bell marks the start of JACKAL SEASON. Plus, jackals are here! We’ll take a look at how you and your family can meet them as soon as possible.

looks like a photo of a crt screen. Displays a drawing that looks like a weird game. The upper left square is a white room with a door in the wall. A woman and a man with a triangular head are walking towards the door. The upper right square contains concentric squares. In the center is a black square with a drawing of a white hand in it. In the lower left is a white infinity symbol, or a mask for glaring eyes. It is ambiguous. The lower right square is a white box containing writing that says: “this way.”

Looks like a photo of a crt screen displaying a blocky old computer game, but the graphics are hand drawn. A little man is walking on a plane of grass in darkness towards a glowing white house. It looks like someone has drawn on the glass screen of the tv with ink. There is a sinister smiling face in the upper left. A large head with dark eyes is emerging from the ground in front of the house. It’s positioned in such a way that the house door looks like a gaping mouth.

A page that looks like a scan from an old game magazine. A circular graphic contains a watercolor illustration of an enthusiastic wormlike dinosaur thing with a smiling yellow star and a worried looking blue diamond. A box in the lower half contains an illustration of a treasure box with a funny face, decorated with white crosses. In front of it are a green potion, a gold coin, and a silver key. There are also 2 game screenshots. One is of a title screen, featuring the dinosaur like worm, and one is of the same character standing in a little stonework house before a blue spheroid face, which is speaking. The text on the page is one continuous statement and does not relate to the images. It says: Header: Wondering how young I’ll die. Featured text, next to round illustration: We now take it as granted that the western empires will collapse. Title screen screenshot: In a real sense, it has already happened. House and dialog screenshot: we were born into a dead world. Text below screenshots: and now decay begins. We, having prepared all our lives for a future that can never arrive, feel lost. We must go on living. But what will life be, and how long can it last? America has become a nation of endless plagues

The fish is split down the middle. The split dish has strange eyes and a small mouth inside it, as if it was a human face. A speech balloon is coming from the fish, but the balloon only says “speaking” in parentheses. We do not know what the fish is saying.

Grayscale drawing of Cell’s ship flying in space at night. It’s Diamond shaped with a black triangle for a view winds and two hand like bits hovering at its sides. Below it stretches the gray, streetlit ribbon of the Dendroid highway, fixed in place by vague means (various support structures appear in silhouette.) A ringed planet is visible in then distance. A little bean-shaped car drives on the highway, illuminating it with its headlights. Text at the top of the page says: Night Drivin’

A grayscale comic page Depicts Cell’s Diamond shaped ship splitting bits off its side, which flip adoond to become stubby, floating mechanical hands. A figure on video in the upper right, identified as CCC, says “Cell, the client’s waitin’.” A text box says: The combat of space is fast and deadly. At the end of the transformation, Cell’s ship is approached by a sphere shaped craft with a weird, plain face and little arms carrying pistols of some kind. A caption under it reads “Burglar Class” A more fully rendered panel at the bottom of the page depicts Cell’s ship, in the dark of space, physically holding off one burglar class ship with one hand while the other hand blasts a second burglar class ship with a projectile emitted from its palm.

Second Half of a 12 panel grayscale comic page Panel 7: Inside the ship’s empty cockpit. We see the Highway through its angular windshield. It has a steering wheel and pedals, like a car. A computer terminal displays a map, illuminating the dash. Panel 8: Some kind of workshop. Cell’s armor stands in an alcove, hooked up to tubes. A terminal above it shows a progress bar. Tools and a drum of flammable liquid are in the foreground. Down a hall, a figure sits on the floor in a steaming shower. Panel 9: Cell sits under the shower spray, nude. Long hair covers her face. Her legs are hairy, she’s fat. Panel 10: Close on Cell lighting a joint. Panel 11: In bed, still nude, cell exhales smoke. On a TV behind her, a cartoon dinosaur gives a news report about "Skeletonization" Panel 12: Cell flops onto her back, taking another drag. A vent above her sucks up the smoke. The TV now displays a commercial: text says Come to Apple Land. A little cartoon clown man gestures towards a landscape of cartoon hills, dotted with lakes, forests, and little castle towers.

First half of a 12 panel grayscale comic page Panel 1: solid black Panel 2: A long ribbon of road, dotted with streetlights, stretches through dark, starry space. It seems in places to be supported by large clamps or chunks of asteroid. An offramp connects to it. An interstate road sign labels every direction of road as the Dendroid Highway Panel 3: The Highway continues over another rocky meteorite surface. More strange industrial structures are attached to it, for some reason. In the distance, a trapezoidal building stands on floating rock. It is dark, and a hole is blown in its side. Panel 4: Yet more of the Highway. This stretch passes a roadside stop identified by billboard as the Red Eye Inn. It’s a triangular building; the flat, road-facing roof has lettering on it that says FUEL, FOOD, MEDICAL. A covered structure resembling a gas fueling station is next to it. The Inn is also dark, and also has a hole blown in it. Panel 5: Another stretch of Highway, this one supported by massive steel poles connected to asteroids below. A dark, circular sign advertises something called BUG HULL. It has a boxy bug face logo. Cell’s Diamond-shaped ship is flying down this road. Panel 6: Closer on the ship as it speeds down the road.

Grayscale comic panel: Triangle shaped character and Diamond shaped character are on a road loading to a church by a dark lake. Trees and tufts of grass are seen in the area. The rendering of this and the next 3 panels is reminiscent of strange, antiquated game graphics Triangle says: GO TO CHURCH. Inside the church. There are alcoves on the walls containing unlit candles and an altar in the back, beneath a giant cross. Triangle and Diamond stand in the foreground. Triangle says: BENEDICTION TIME. Rumble, rumble: the whole church interior has titled. Triangle and Diamond are surprised. Diamond says: CHURCH IS MOVING? In the upper left, a dropshadowed window labeled MOVEMENT PHASE has appeared. It depicts a grid reminiscent of the scene in the first panel. The church is sliding to the west, of its foundation and into the lake. The titled church is now filled with dark water. Triangle and Diamond are up to their noses in water. Text like a status update of error message covers the top of the panel. It says WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!!

4 panel grayscale comic. Panel 1: Close up of Cell’s armored hand holding an ordinary set of keys. She presses a button on a black fob, which emits a chirpy “BE-BO” Panel 2: A previously unseen door in the ship unfolds itself, revealing an entrance ramp and tunnel with a pneumatic PSSSH. Panel 3: Cell, climbing the ramp and entering the tunnel, glances back at the brutal and alien structure behind her. Panel 4: Close on cell. The structure is reflected in her visor. “Cool guys,” she says.

4 panel black and white comic Panel 1: Cell, wearing armor, uses her suit’s flashlight to see while ascending a large, dark stairwell. Some kind of cube-headed lizard crawls on the wall. A tentacled jelly sits on a step above. Panel 2: A dark chamber with carved monster faces over a big mechanical door. Light pours into the room as Cell opens it, using an adjacent panel, and the doors slide open with a KSSsH of escaping air. A rocky landscape and the black sky of space are visible beyond, as is a diamond shaped spaceship. Panel 3: Cell, now outside, glances around as she walks to the ship. Panel 4: Cell has stopped in the ship’s shadow. She retrieves something from an unseen pocket.

A black and white comic The first two panels, as on the prior page, are framed by lumpy cables which sprout from the talking skull Panel 1: Skull, narrating: All the wandering ones, like curious children, are my company. In the illustration, a dog with a pyramid head is lying in a rocky chamber, in front of a high tech circular door. Pipes and cables connect to the door from somewhere off panel. Panel 2: Skull, narrating: Their brief lives are pieces of my own. In the panel, a spiky turtle thing eats a carrot on a floating platform over a deep rocky shaft, which contains other floating platforms. Panel 3: Back to the scene of the armored figure, Cell, sitting opposite the Skull, which is set into the wall. Cell: That’s really nice. Skull: Yes. Panel 4: Cell rises from the floor. Cell: Well, I should probably go. Skull: as you will. Panel 5: Cell turns as she’s exiting. Cell: Some guys paid me to scope this place out. Probably looters. Can you take care of yourself if they swing by? Panel 6: Close on the Skull. Skull: They would be devoured.

A black and white comic Panel 1: darkness Panel 2: An armored figure (Cell,) sits by a big skull set into an alcove. The skull is connected to wires and surrounded by vaguely technological things. A bottle, resembling a liquor bottle, sits against the wall, and some of the liquid drips from the skull’s mouth. Cell says: You do ok down here? Panel 3: Close up on the skull. It says: I run throughout the entire structure. This is one of my nodes. In a sense I am not here, but everywhere. My biological components are self-sustaining. And I have never known boredom. Panel 4: Back to Cell sitting across from the skull. The skull says: If that’s what you’re wondering. Panel 5: Close up on Cell, nodding. Cell says: Glad to hear that. I know these situations can be rough. Panel 6: Back to the wider shot. The skull says: Oh, I know. Panel 7: The skull says: You and I are blessed.

2 silly drawings of space station mechs with smiling spherical heads. The first one looks like a 60s robot with a domed city in its torso. The second one has the same basic shape but is covered with more detail, domed protrusion, panel lines and little windows.
