Oof, shoulda evolved.
-
At least the nautilus listened
-
He didn't. All but one of his diverse descendants were wiped out along with the dinosaurs, relatively "recently".

I mean if you want to suck the fun out of it only 4/22 of horseshoe crab species survived.
Saying any species not evolving for millions of years is a misnomer anyway. A living fossil only superficially resemble ancient species. Since both nautilus and horseshoe crabs are considered living fossils I thought it's a fair comparison.
But this is a silly little comic ultimately about the existential dread of modern human life so this level of pedantry isn't needed.

They are the true blue bloods of the animal kingdom, they are already at the pinnacle.

Coelacanth started going with them then stopped, figuring horse shoe crab knew what was up
-
Whale went the whole way but eventually came back.

sometimes you have a make a mistake to understand why it's a mistake. lol

Must be fun winning evolution off the hop

What’s the guy on the computer supposed to be about?
-
Something about the drudgery of modern existence, I suspect.
-
That's what they evolved into. Crab is happy staying a crab
-
The implication is that the crab is content with it's life but the spawn of some of those seeking a better life through evolution ended up miserable, toiling away oppressed by their own kind. A fate no one at the time could have imagined. We are these spawns.

Ironic it's a nautilus talking about evolving
-
Crocodile, shark, pill bug... They're all creatures that are now famed as "living fossils". Even looks like a coeleocanth fin in one of the panels.

I like triops.

I'm not sure I understand. There's a nautilus, croc, shark, trilobite - so is the point that non of them really evolved? I feel dumb today.
