Artist commentary:

The ocean. It contains many a thing, but the one thing it is absolutely brimming with is Facts. In these comics, you will learn many such facts, all of which are 100% certifiably true and accurate. My brother is a marine biologist, so of course I am at the forefront of the sea sciences.


Hey everyone! This is a new community focused on NonPolitical Comics (NPCs), which essentially means no gloom and doom of the day stuff.

If you like the idea, we need help! Take a couple of minutes to find a comic that you like and post it here for the rest of us!

Fun actual ocean fact: If you took all the salt out of the ocean and spread it over the Earth's land surface, it would form a layer 500 feet thick.

That's over 9.43x10^36^ Planck lengths!

My conclusion from this comic is that we evolved erections as a defense against mermaid attacks.

Well, we are both the only seafaring apes and the ones with the biggest dicks, so that makes sense.

This is what happens when mermaids spend too much time around humans.
