No, this is not a bad acid trip.
Actually, it’s a pretty interesting web comic set in the not too distant future. What’s even more interesting is that it takes place in an Islamic-centric desert country torn by war and terrorism. Sound familiar? Yeah, I thought it might. And, trust me, this is a very different look at how that dynamic works. Very thought provoking.
So, check out The Spiders and get ready to be blown away.

Have a fun freaky Friday!

  1. Not really funny to me. I’ve just about had enough of anyone named Abdul, fun, fiction, or fact.

  2. Oh, I didn’t think it was *funny*, but it was interesting and, to me, that’s fun. Especially, the idea that there were factions within that culture that disagreed with what we see as the prevailing veiw in Western media. In retrospect, it was probably not the best way to categorize this listing.
    I certainly didn’t mean to offend anyone.
